Overview:
Meet mythology's cheekiest tour guide: Percy Jackson himself. This two book paperback set brings together Percy Jackson and the Greek Gods and Percy Jackson and the Greek Heroes, in which the modern-day demigod narrates the outrageous, hilarious and sometimes gruesome true stories behind Mount Olympus. Written by global bestseller Rick Riordan, this collection is a brilliant introduction to Greek mythology for readers aged 9-12, Percy Jackson fans, and anyone who loves a story with attitude, adventure and heart.

About the Books:
In Percy Jackson and the Greek Gods, Percy takes on the impossible task of explaining the entire Greek pantheon in his own irreverent, sarcastic voice. From Zeus's power grab to Poseidon's underwater kingdom, from Athena bursting fully formed from her father's head to Kronos's stomach-churning parenting choices, Percy walks readers through the feuds, romances, betrayals and downright bizarre behaviour of the Olympians. It's mythology stripped of its dusty textbook reputation and rebuilt as something fast, funny and gripping. Percy Jackson and the Greek Heroes continues the fun, with Percy recounting the legendary and often disastrous exploits of figures like Hercules, Theseus, Atalanta and Perseus. These aren't polished, perfect heroes - they're flawed, funny, occasionally foolish humans facing monsters, curses and impossible odds. Together, the two books offer a complete sweep through Greek myth - gods first, then the heroes who came after - narrated with the wit and heart that made the original Percy Jackson series a global phenomenon. Illustrated throughout, this set turns classical mythology into something young readers genuinely want to read cover to cover, whether they're devoted Camp Half-Blood fans or coming to Greek myths for the first time.
