Who

Who
was
raised
by
a
she-bear?
Who
tamed
Pegasus?

a
demigod
to
know,
and
Percy
Jackson
can
fill
you
in
on
the
all
the
daring
deeds
of
Perseus,
Atalanta,
Bellerophon,
and
the
rest
of
the
major
Greek
heroes.
Told
in
the
funny,
irreverent
style
readers
have
come
to
expect
from
Percy,
(I've
had
some
bad
experiences
in
my
time,
but
the
heroes
I'm
going
to
tell
you
about
were
the
original
old
school
hard
luck
cases.
They
boldly
screwed
up
where
no
one
had
screwed
up
before.

Honoree
John

collection
will
become
the
new
must-have
classic
for
Rick
Riordan's
legions
of
devoted
fans--and

anyone
who
needs
a
hero.
So get your flaming spear. Put on your lion skin cape. Polish your shield and make sure you've got arrows in your quiver. We're going back about four thousand years to decapitate monsters, save some kingdoms, shoot a few gods in the butt, raid the Underworld, and steal loot from evil people.
Then, for dessert, we'll die painful tragic deaths.
Ready? Sweet. Let's do this.

PRAISE
FOR
PERCY
JACKSON'S
GREEK
HEROES
"A colorful and quite enormous companion volume toPercy Jackson's Greek Gods(2014), this inviting book retells the stories of 12 notable figures from Greek mythology. . .Riordan casts a wide net in choosing his heroes, and the inclusion of four women in this traditionally male-dominated category broadens the book's appeal as well as its scope. Written in the voice of Percy Jackson, these ancient stories sound fresh and vital. Rocco contributes many beautifully composed and dramatic paintings, from full-page action scenes to vertical side panels to small portraits at chapter headings."—Booklist
PRAISE FOR PERCY JACKSON'S GREEK HEROES
"Percy Jackson, the narrator of Riordan's novels, has returned to retell traditional Greek myths. Written from Percy's first-person point of view, the book tells a dozen stories, including the original Perseus and the Gorgons, Eros and Psyche, and Atalanta. Complemented by Rocco's elegant paintings, and printed on the thick smooth paper one expects in an art reference, this book is a unique combination: classical Greek myth reference and a very 21st-century retelling. . .it is a joy to read or read aloud, with enough humor to entice and entertain adults, reluctant readers, and mythology fans, as well as fans of Riordan's earlier books. If you can, buy two: one for reference and one to circulate."—VOYA
