The Eye of Zeus: Legends Of Olympus, Book One

The Eye of Zeus is a shocking novel about Greek mythology with a wild adventure.

Phoebe Katz is a foster kid from New York City, and weird things happen when she gets mad or emotional. She notices more and more little accidents. For example, one time at her school, a bully trips her and destroys one of her school projects. Phoebe gets mad, and a thunderstorm starts completely out of the blue. A coincidence, right? Not so much! Phoebe Katz is the daughter of Zeus, which makes her a demigod. Together with her mortal friends Damian, Rodina, and Angie Spaciacolli, she will have to brave a dangerous quest. They will have to save Carl, the closest friend Phoebe’s ever had to family, and even save Olympus!! The group will have to face challenges, make new friends, and sadly also lose some.

This book was a great adventure book in which friendships also played an important role! It was fast-paced, and I enjoyed it a lot, like many of the other books about Greek mythology that I have read before!

I recommend this book to kids who like the Percy Jackson series or are nine and up.
