I am a huge fan of Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, which has the adventure of Harry Potter set to Greek Mythology. The first book in the series is called The Lightening Thief. If you have not read this series, you're missing out! Run, don't walk to your nearest library or bookstore today.
Rick Riordan is starting a new series following a new gang in Camp Half Blood called The Heroes of Olympus. Here is the book cover of the first book, The Lost Hero, in that series:
My good reading friend M_Dobrev sent me a link to the Entertainment Weekly article that gives readers a secret code to read the first two chapters of The Lost Hero. Be sure to read the article and then stay tuned to my blog as I review The Red Pyramid from the Kane Chroncles another new series by Riordan set to Egyptian Mythology as well as The Lost Hero.

Awww...thanks for the shout out. I just read the first ten pages and I really liked it. I will definitely be reading this series when it comes out. I didn't want to read more, because I didn't want to get too involved and be left hanging for months and months. This little taste just reminds me why I enjoyed the Percy Jackson series so much and reminds me that I need to get on the waiting list for The Red Pyramid at my local library ASAP. Thanks again.

My daughter was on a Greek Mythology kick for a while this past year after we read D'Aulaires Book of Greek Myths out loud together (it's wonderful if you've never checked it out). She also stumbled on another Olympian series: Goddess Girls, by Joan Holub and Suzanne Williams. I think there are two books in the series and she liked them both. :)
