Picked it up when I heard that a TV series is in the works. It's an entertaining twist on modernized mythology, but it's nothing like Percy Jackson.
It felt a little rush and at times he seemed to use pop interpretation of cultures, mythologies, and their gods. I love the vignette scattered through out the book.
Overall a good book, very well written. However, not my kind of story. I read it with a science fiction / fantasy mindset, and it has very little of that. The whole gods plot was pretty much a background for the true story of the book.
Basically it's a story about an ex-con walking around the USA. It's more of a travel, sight seeing and ‘small town getting to know', kind of book.
Interesting characters, good dialogs, but lack of a climax and exciting scenes.
