This is the most fun book I've read in a while! Evie will become the keeper of the Storeroom of magical objects (she gets to hand Cinderella her glass slippers!) when her father dies. The world is descending into chaos while she tries to decide whether the ancient Greek hanging around is friend or foe, whether she should hand the golden apple to Hera, and how Merlin and Arthur can help her. I may even be inspired enough to give the Aeneid a try. Note: I'd think this would otherwise be a good book for younger readers, but there are multiple references to male/male sex and rape (those Greeks!) so I won't be passing it on to my young readers any time soon.
