Great series if you like the Greek gods. Following Dora and her friends as they discover their godly powers. Only downfall, I wish we could of explored the other realms in this world. And Nik the phoenix. I would have loved to find out more about the being behind the feather.

History, love, and adventure. Who could ask for more?

This is a wonderful collection. Anytime a book leaves you with a happy feeling in your heart then you know it was absolutely good. I hope we get more about Pandora and Icarus.

So Amazing! I loved Pandora's story!! The ending was so happy and so perfect it just couldn't get better. She saw her Dad and Mandy again (which made me tear up) and Zali ended up with Thom ( If Tak didn't like her a long time ago he's not worth her.) I also loved how generous Oceanues was. For some reason I just imaged him as Davy Jones from "Pirates of the Caribbean". But anyway the book was so amazing! I would really enjoy if Eliza Raine wrote more like this (kid friendly of course)!

[Cath · Rating 5 out of 5]

This collection includes three books, The Titan’s Treasure, The Demon Demigod and The Jinxed Journey. The main character is a young girl called Pandora (Dora), who has just turned sixteen and is awaiting the long ago promised return of her mother, who abandoned her at birth. Dora has lived with her dad and her younger adopted sister Mandy, ever since. She knows that her mother is supposedly not human as such, and she is to await by the sea for her mother to appear on her actual birthday. When she doesn’t turn up, her dad tells her to wait the following afternoon as well. She has almost given up, when she sees a large ship shimmering in the distance, then getting closer and looking like a giant octopus!

It seems that coming of age, has made her visible to all creatures, human and otherwise and she is now in danger of being hunted by demons and other creatures, for the rest of her life if she stays on land. Her mother appears from the water, just in time, and tells her she must come with her immediately, if she wants to stay alive! If not, she and her father and sister will be in danger every day she stays. There isn’t even time to say goodbye and she resents her mother for turning up a day late and leaving her with no choice. Her mother takes her under the water, telling her she is descended from the God of the oceans, Oceanus, and she needs to study her heritage at the Olympus Academy.

Only problem with that, is that she is descended from a Titan, not one of the Olympian Gods and the school hasn’t had a Titan student since one was let in years ago and nearly burnt the Academy down, killing one student! She automatically has a target on her back and one small group of girls make it very plain she isn’t welcome. Doing all they can to get her in trouble of hurt her. Another new student, who she thinks has gorgeous eyes, is also a Titan descendant and is called Icarus. Unfortunately, he is also a loner and seemingly damaged from his past. Dora gets put into a few separate classes with him, to help them catch up with other first year students. If Dora doesn’t graduate, she has been told she will be returned to the mortal world and demons will be drawn to her and her family, wanting to kill her.

She needs to not just graduate, but become one of the most powerful students there is, to be allowed out of Olympus and be allowed to visit her remaining family as and when she wants. She needs to unlock her Titan powers, which are deemed very unstable and dangerous, and must trust her teachers to help her. One has a special treasure hunt for her and Icarus, some sort of Titan treasure, the clues for which can only be read and uncovered by an actual Titan. This leads the two of them on many adventures and the release of three demons, which they then have to try and catch and banish back away from the Academy grounds. Visits from the occasional God from Olympus, to assess the student’s progress, leaves Dora and others wondering if they will pass or be immediately kicked out of the Academy!

Someone has tricked then into doing something they shouldn’t, which has brought danger to all. Whether they will succeed or not, to train their powers sufficiently and safely in time to overcome all the problems they are facing, is a fascinating read. The books are really well written and just flow as you read them. Each adventure is brilliantly explained and well visually described. Each adventure and problem Dora and Icarus have to overcome is well thought out and you get to see them both finally make some friends and develop their powers. I loved the part when they managed to raise Oceanus’ old ship and travel through different lands, each with their own traditions and dangers to those from elsewhere. Loved the complete collection and can’t wait to see if there will be more from this author. I received an ARC copy of this boxset from BookSprout, but loved it so much, I have also bought it! I would recommend it to all who love a bit of adventure, history and fun. I have freely given my own opinion of the whole collection above.

Book 1:

"Titan's Treasure" was an great first book in this series; the plot is put forth with Skill and great world building. It introduces us to Pandora, Zali, Tak and Icarus who are all well developed characters that you could grow to love or not love. It had action, mystery, suspense, and intrigue with a twist. This book is full of Greek mythology, mythological creatures, magic, and shifters with vivid and exciting scenes.


Book 2:

“Demon DemiGod” picks up the tale where the first book left off and does not disappoint. Pandora’s quest begins with lies, action, betrayal & misunderstandings. The growing attraction between Pandora and Icarus blooms as Pandora’s powers are growing. Icarus, Zali, Thom and as well as Arketa and Vronti join her on this quest through the realm of Olympus.


Book 3:

“Jinxed Journey” is the most exciting in this trilogy; Pandora’s quest is full of adventure. Pandora, and gang learn more about Professors Neos and Danko, as well as the Gods & Titans. To protect Olympus Academy they must use that knowledge. The book is exciting and has a wonderful surprise ending.

I’m looking to more from Eliza Raine and hopefully more adventures from Pandora and the Olympus Academy. BEST academy tale of the year!

This series was in my opinion was not as great as the other two I read. I really love this author as I read two of her other series total of 7 books in a week that was how good they were. However, this one is just meh to be, just my own personal preference. You ever read a book and think this heroine is so annoying? Well this is it. At first I thought sure she’s down on luck, she’s being bullied, she didn’t have a mom but a dad and sister who loves her, she’s just curious, but seriously most have less and tbh no one is that lucky to always do the wrong thing to have it turn out just right. Tbh I felt this heroine is written to be quite selfish base on her behavior, sure it all turns around in the last 100 page of the 3rd book. I’m so vested in this book I felt I had to finish it just so can feel like I can say something. As I said, love this authors writing style, her other books grabbed me right off and kept going. This story would be fantastic if the heroine wasn’t so damn annoyingly selfish with no thought to the consequences of her actions.

A great way to read a whole series that was fun and entertaining. It is the tale of Pandora and what happens when she finds out the truth of the blood running in her veins. Pandora ends up at the Olympus Academy and meets both friends and enemies. Though I am not always sure who is who sometimes. Add in the mystery, suspense, and trying to survive and wow what a series. A great blend of mythology, magic, quests, enemies, creatures and teenage angst and you get a great academy series.

Book 1 - The Titan's Treasure - I got introduced to Pandora and all the main characters that sets up the series and the conflicts that come.

Book 2 - The Demon DemiGod - things heat up as Pandora and her friends end up on a quest with action and betrayal running wild.

Book 3 - The Jinxed Journey - Pandora and her friends learn some secrets and have the final battle as suspicion, twists, and action abound up to the end.

[Liz Coleman · Rating 4 out of 5]

When the description of the book mentions that it's for fans of Harry Potter and Percy and the Olympians, they are not wrong. In fact, if you have read those books you will undoubtedly find many parts of this series that harken to those. So while this might not be the most original of series, it's still highly enjoyable. This is an easy read for those not technically young adult but immersive enough that I found myself sucked into the story and ignoring the crazy (quarantine) world around me. In fact, I'm fairly certain that I finished the series in 3 days (time means little right now).

Amazing writing, not really. Well developed world, yes. Original? No. But if you are looking to drive into an easily accessible universe and escape while willing to suspend some disbelief then this is well worth your time.

Very enjoyable, a cut above most YA fantasy offerings

I'd already read most of Eliza Raine's other Grk myth inspired fantasy offerings when I read this series & I wish I'd found it 1st. It lays out the necessary foundation for the future series & is just as well written, creative & has as much inspired world building & storytelling as the others. Raine is a talented author & I'm tempted to now reread all the series in order just to see if I've overlooked anything in the text something that's extremely rare for me & is always a sign of my esteem considering I usu read 300+ bks yrly. I wholeheartedly recommend this author & this series, even though it's technically a YA series imo, it truly doesn't read as one being complex and well written. 5 *****

[Mererid Evanna · Rating 5 out of 5]

I recommend this box set of the Olympus Academy trilogy. It's best read all at once as it tells a story that comes full circle. And it makes a wonderful read. It has such strong characters - they really came alive for me. Also vividly depicted are the locations, such as the pegasus tower and the underwater garden. In the third book the main characters leave the school and visit other realms of this unusual myth-based world.

I've read - or rather, started - some YA series where the fantasy elements are really just window dressing for the romance, but that's not the case here. There is a little romance, but the fantasy story is solid and well-structured.

[J-Lynn · Rating 4 out of 5]

Overall, the journey was fun while reading this book. I think that it should have just been one big book rather than three separate books, but more money they other way. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Dora the explorer’s curiosity made her make numerous mistakes. On the other hand, she learned from those mistakes and became a better person. In the end, she saved her academy after getting them in danger because her actions caused demons to be released. Honestly, I’m surprised more people didn’t die....

After reading this, it makes me want to reread the Percy Jackson series! It brought back my childhood!

[Erin · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a story following Pandora and Olympus Academy. Add in the fact she's a Titan and Zues basically in charge of the school she sure has her work cut out for her. Each book continued perfectly from one to the next. Her journey is filled with twists and turns as she learns to unlock her abilities and Icarus adds another element to this great story line. Loved reading this as a collection together.

Percy Jackson suddenly has some competition. One of the best series that I've read recently on the Greek Pantheon.

Keeps one engaged, completely absorbed and addictively hooked from the beginning to the end. The pace does dip in a few places but since it's a boxed set that is to be accepted and appreciated. These places give you a chance to catch your breath and get ready for the next set of thrills.

Good Storyline

The plot is worth sticking with. At the beginning, it does feel like it’s ripping off the Percy Jackson series but it quickly takes on a mind of its own and becomes an enjoyable read. The biggest problem I had with it overall, was the lack of grammatical editing. It’s very hard to remain enthralled in a book, when you continuously stumble over the use of span instead of spun, etc. but it was certainly worth sticking it out.

[Darryl Gossett--Music · Rating 3 out of 5]

Written by the goddess of triteness?

Poorly written and derivative, with a ton of cliches and grammatical errors and one of the most unlikable and irritating teen heroines ever. It was about as enjoyable as a second-grade kazoo recital. On the plus side, it had words. And turtles. And a sentient feather. And it was free.

PS: Dear Author, there is a difference between "taught" and "taut." Look it up or hire a proofreader!

I truly enjoyed this well executed and written books. Eliza Raine has a way with her writing that pulls you into the story and allows you to feel as if you are in the story right by side Pandora, Icarus and Thorn.

I thought the story and character work done in these books were terrific. The stories flowed seamlessly together. I was highly entertained from beginning to end and didn't want to stop once I started. I look forward to more from this author.

Brilliant and I have read all of Rick Riordan's series.

This is a fresh and exciting take on little-recited parts of Greeek mythology, the story of the Titans. Now we get to experience the world through their stories. I couldn't drop the trilogy till it was consumed. The delicious aftertaste is still swirling aorund on my tongue.

[Catherine Edgar · Rating 5 out of 5]

First mix a bunch of mythological characters. Stretch, fudge, amplify and embellished their stories. Once the stories are well mingled and intertwined, you get a delicious new story.

What a great trilogy! This trilogy is the tale of Pandora and what follows after she finds out the truth behind the mother that was never around. I love Greek Mythology and this series did not disappoint.

This was a light easy read, I enjoyed the books but just didnt quite seem to have the depth I was looking for. Everything is superficial and rarely delves further than that in both the world building and characters. BUT if your looking for something fun to pass the time give this series a go.

DemoTitans

The books were a good read and I’m hoping the author continues. Though there were plenty of typos throughout, it was easy to get around. Still a great book and I love the twist of being in the Titans.

Great series!!

I loved the build up of the exciting conclusion. I love the clues and puzzles they had to figure out and I loved the coming together of people with different backgrounds and trauma's. This is an excellent series for teenagers and adults alike.
