Oddonis is the younger brother of Adonis and they are both starting middle school. Adonis is a god. Oddonis is not. Now it is time to pick a class president and Oddonis has decided to make it a race for Adonis. Can he and his crew win?

This story is fun! I love Oddonis and his crew. They are a sorry bunch and yet I wanted them to win. I loved how Mathena (top in math) finally gets through to Oddonis about math and how they use it to campaign. Oddonis' speech was from the heart. The drawings help during the speech. At least explain the non-gods reaction. I enjoyed the election but I will not ruin it by revealing the results. Read the book.

I look forward to further adventures with Oddonis and his motley crew. (

Oddonis may be the son of Zeus, but he's a little bit...odd for a God. He's so odd, in fact, he's not sure if he has any powers at all. And if that isn't enough, his twin brother Adonis is the most popular, most athletic, and most otherworldly handsome God of them all.

Oddonis's future at Mount Olympus Middle isn't looking bright, especially when he makes the last-minute decision to run against Adonis to be class president.
