The Fire Thief (Fire Thief Trilogy, Book 1) - Terry Deary

I am very judicious about what I add to Mount TBR these days, but as soon as I read the description (Prometheus hides from the liver eating Fury in the year 1858) and then learned it was written by Terry Deary (Horrible Histories) - I couldn't resist.  Well, it didn't knock my socks off, but it was a unique and diverting read for sure.  I think it's just about perfect for my 10 year old daughter - It had little moments that remind me of 'A Tale Dark and Grimm' - one of our mutual favorites.
