review 1: Not a bad conclusion to this series, though some of it felt off to me, as if the author was starting to run out of ideas. But given that I liked the preceding books (well, except for the whole Demeter issue), and I certainly enjoyed seeing the happy ending, a fun little read. Per...

review 1: Like the first, this book is full of funny incidents with the gods of ancient Greece. The story was clever, but it is a little difficult to write a story all about the deadly sin of lust without making it unfit for the junior fiction set. Hennesy does a pretty good job with this,...

review 1: A bit of a let-down after the previous book. Whereas the liberties taken with history didn’t bother me in book one – primarily because they were centered on one culture – here I just couldn’t ignore them. Throwing together 1,500 years of history (from Homer to Mohammed) and smash...

review 1: It is never easy describing a book when all I can rank it with is a “so-so” rating. I didn’t hate it. I didn’t love it. I wanted to be sucked in like a speck of dust caught in the path of a vacuum cleaner. Sadly, this did not happen with the cases told by Damien Spinelli.Though t...
