Gods Behaving Badly by Marie Phillips - King Bob - 08-08-2017

Enjoyable, fairly clever and not difficult. It's about the Greek gods who all live in a run-down house in London. Their powers are now feeble and most have taken jobs; Diana is a dog walker and Dionysus runs a nightclub. Add a couple of mortals who cross their path, a trip to the underworld (like Orpheus) and possible end of the world. One would need a little background knowledge of Greek myth, but not much, and I think anyone our age would have that, although I don't know about younger people. A good Summer read if you need one.
