This is a difficult story to follow without the context of the previous books. The first mention of Laziness--the evil Pandora is tracking down--happens two-thirds of the way through the book, and there are no references in this story to how Pandy and her friends know where they're heading. (Readers can infer that this information was included at the end of the previous book, as the final chapter of this book shows them looking at a map that tells them where to find the next evil.) There are occasional references to previous events, but recaps are non-existent, leaving new readers mystified by the characters' teasing in-jokes and concerns, and abilities. Fans of mythological-adventure stories may pick this series up, but would be better served by Riordan's Percy Jackson series or Ursu's Chronus Chronicles.

Pandora Gets Lazy is the 3rd book of the Pandora series. I enjoyed the 1st and 2nd book and the third was just as great. Pandora Get Lazy is continueing Pandoras adventure to find and capture all the evils that she spilled out of the box. Evil Hera took her dog Dido away from her, and Pandora has been lost from her freinds after flying out of a charriot. She meets two little boys who have lost their parents and tribe. She takes care of then as if they were her brothers. Pandy heals one of the little boys legs also. Pandy and the two boys get captured, and the rest of the team Iole, Alce, and Homer. They get taken to Pandys uncle where they figure out that he has Laziness in his nose-hair! ewww! Now the heavens are falling down because of his laziness. Pandy is trying to figure out how to get that nose hair out, meanwhile, her father begged one o the gods to let him see Pandy, so Hermes disguised him. He gets to see his daughter in action saving the world. Pandy pulls the nose hair out at last and they find the two little boys mother. I cant wait to read the next book of Pandora which is called Pandora Gets Heart. Enjoy! ( )

The third young adult novel in the Pandora series keeps up the adventurous vibe as Pandy and her friends search for Laziness. When Pandy is separated from her friends early on, she has to keep her wits about her as she continues on alone…at least until she meets two young boys who need her help. But when the three are captured by Roman slavers, Pandy has to survive the harsh trials.

Meanwhile, Iole, Alcie, and Homer set out on their own little adventure – to which they find strength in themselves to survive the trials that they are faced with. Overall, the book reads rather quickly despite the 275 pages – can’t wait to find out what happens next. ( )

Pandora Atheneus Andromaeche Helena, "Pandy" to her friends and family, has already saved the world from Vanity and Jealousy. The fact that she let them loose on the world in the first place is really just a tiny detail.

Pandy is the only daughter of the Titan, Prometheus, and she is in trouble with Zeus. Due to an unfortunate incident at school, all the evils of the world have been released from a box that was entrusted to her father. Zeus has ordered that Pandora find each of them in order to save the world, and her family. Pandy, along with her friends Alcie, Iole, and Homer, are now headed to the Atlas Mountains to capture Laziness.

The goddess Hera, wife of Zeus, is still determined that Pandora will fail on her quest. This time Hera has taken Pandy's dog, Dido. But, while the other gods are sympathetic to Pandy, nobody would dare to interfere with Zeus or Hera. Not right out in the open anyway.

Early on this journey, Pandy becomes separated from her friends. She befriends two young boys on her way and finds herself captured and chained to them. Unknown captors are leading Pandy to an unknown destination, and she is surrounded by danger every step of the way.

While Pandy is being led through the dark and dangerous path to the mountain Jbel Toubkal, Alcie, Iole, and Homer find themselves aboard the ship Syracusa with problems of their own. They are on the ship with one of the evils and now they must capture Misery on their own.

And, high in the Atlas Mountains, Pandy will come face to face with her uncle, Atlas. It is the fate of Atlas to hold up the heavens but something has changed and human men are being forced to carry his load. Once again, it is up to Pandy to save her friends, her family, and every human on earth while finding the evils of the world. All while her time is quickly running out.

The MYTHIC MISS-ADVENTURE series are books about ancient places and characters with a very humorous and modern touch. The first two books in the series, PANDORA GETS JEALOUS and PANDORA GETS VAIN, offer an introduction and further adventures of Pandy and her friends, but each book can be enjoyed just as much on its own.

PANDORA GETS LAZY is as funny and adventurous as the previous books and Pandora and her friends are even more endearing with each book. ( )
