Who Let the Gods Out is a laugh-out-loud, Percy Jackson-esque, adventure series for ages 9+

Written by bestselling author Maz Evans, the books bring Greek mythology bang up to date, with the story of Elliott, a boy whose life changes forever, when a god crash lands into a dungheap on his family farm.

When Elliott wishes upon a star, he certainly doesn’t expect Virgo to crash into his life. Nor does he expect them to release Thanatos, evil Daemon of Death, together. But that’s what happens and the only being that can help them is the King of the Gods to. But when Elliott meets chubby Zeus and his high horse Pegasus, he has to ask himself if the Gods are really ready to save the world? And is the world really ready for the Gods?

Shortlisted for the Waterstones Children’s Book Award, this hilarious adventure series can be read in any order, but we recommend starting with book one Who Let The Gods Out, to get the back story. There are four books in the series, which concluded with Against All Gods.
