DISCLAIMER:  I received an advance copy of Oh My Gods! II from the publisher through NetGalley for the purposes of writing an honest review.

In this sequel to the popular Oh My Gods! by Stephanie Cooke, we see that Karen, a demigod and the daughter of Zeus, has moved to Mt. Olympus. She is starting her junior year with her godly friends, and one of her extracurricular classes is the school newspaper, where she decides to investigate an online troll that goes by M1N0T4UR. While trying to figure out who this “person” is, Karen and her friends find a labyrinth beneath the school.

I really enjoyed the original Oh My Gods!, but this one didn’t do it for me. I wanted more about Mt. Olympus and the gods that live there. The story was entertaining, but if you took out what little there was about the gods, Mt. Olympus, and any other mythological stuff thrown in, you would have a middle-grade fun graphic novel. I was expecting more from Greek Mythology in the story. Just don’t go in with the assumption that you will get a lot of Greek Mythology. With that said, I would highly recommend this book.

This is the second book in the series.
