This is is the start of what turns out to be a tremendously good book, there are lots of baddies to fight and there are a few appearences of the gods themselves such as Aphrodite, Ares, Apollo and some more.

price - when the book first came out in April 2007 you could purchase it for under £10 but for some reason both Amazon and waterstones do not have the book stocked anymore and the price to buy the book of an independant shop on amazon is £12. This book is well worth your time but just remember to buy the first in the series before you buy the lot.
