Percy Jackson meets Diary of a Wimpy Kid in this exciting adventure from No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author James Patterson, where Greek gods task an ordinary twelve-year-old with a big mission.
Nick Andino isn't exactly 'hero' material. He's perfectly happy working at his family's Greek diner, pining over his crush, and avoiding his bully. His life isn't very exciting... until destiny comes calling.
Dr. Zeus, the over-the-top king of the gods, zooms into town with a quest that Nick must complete to save the Andino family's past and present from being erased from history.
Accompanied by a fast-talking Hermes, Nick journeys back to ancient Greece, where his ancestors await - along with new friends and a whole host of Greek gods and monsters.
Can Nick be the hero the Andinos need, or will his story be another Greek tragedy?
This fast-paced, feel-good adventure from the world's favourite storyteller has black-and-white illustrations throughout, and amphitheatres full of humour and heart.
