I felt that the book was good at justifying the liberties it took w/ characterization. But my last encounter w/ the gods was Ovid's Metamorphoses, so I'm ready to believe *any* indiscretions on their part.
Btw, I've only read book 1 and have yet to see the film, though I intend to. ($5 matinee in Flushing! w00t!) Cause it's still a kid's bestseller, and the film and publishing folks are hoping Percy's the next Potter.
