Graphic Novel


Olympians, Zeus: King of the Gods by George O'Connor (First Second, $12)

A power-hungry Titan, three imprisoned Cyclops, shape-shifting gods and the fight for power: Greek mythology in comic-book form is a smart way to engage reticent readers. The action-driven illustrations make the retelling of the classic creation story hard to put down.

"I like this and would recommend it to others. I also enjoy the Bone series." -Dylan, 12, Sherwood Park, Alta.
