Demigods and Monsters
Rick Riordan et Collectif2009

Demigods and Monsters: Your Favorite Authors on Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series is a spin-off book of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series.

Spend a little more time in Percy Jackson's world - a place where the gods bike among us, monsters man snack bars, and each of us has the potential to become the hero.

Find out :

- Why Dionysus might be the best director Camp Half-Blood could have,
- How to recognize a monster when you see one,
- Why even if we aren't facing manticores and minotaurs, reading myth can still help us deal with the scary things in our own lives.

Plus, consult our glossary of people, places, and things from Greek myth : how Medusa got her snake hair extensions, why Chiron isn’t into partying and paintball like the rest of his centaur family, and the whole story on Percy's mythical namesake.
