      Gr 3 Up-If at first glance Wonder Woman appears to be merely a modern-day DC Comics superheroine, readers may need a reminder that her character originated in Greek mythology. In this series, Wonder Woman acts as a guide to the complicated relationships and activities on Mount Olympus. Initially, the conceit is cleverly appealing, especially for reluctant myth readers, but it ultimately takes on more than the format can handle. The texts introduce a variety of tangential figures from Persian, Egyptian, and Norse stories as well as aliens. Visually, the titles are bright and colorful, though the shifting between comic book-style art and other illustration styles varies in success. VERDICT An all-around hodgepodge of mythological information. Consider only where Wonder Woman and myths are in high demand.
