This book is hilarious! It feels like a sitcom inside Mount Olympus; sort of like Percy Jackson but with more mature subject matter and less reverence (if that's possible). Thalia as the Muse of Comedy is a brilliant narrator and her relationship with Apollo is top-notch. The only, very minor, nitpick I had was that the rest of the Muses, besides Calliope and Thalia, didn't get a whole lot of characterization, but I understand that seven extra characters is a lot to focus on. Overall, another awesome look at Greek mythology that might make you learn something along the way. ( )
