Review
This last installment of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series by Rick Riordan was everything I could hope for. I can't get into much detail without spoiling some important moments.
It was action-packed with a lot of fights and I liked that.
There were some of the humorous moments I'd gotten so used to in the previous books, but this one was a lot darker and (understandable) less humorous. We finally get an answer to the Percy- Annabeth friendship-questions.
I literally can't think of something that I didn't like in this book. This series always makes you think of what could happen while reading and often I'm wrong because of the surprise elements Rick Riordan puts in them. I like the fact that it isn't a predictable story.I'm really curious about the Heroes of Olympus series Rick Riordan wrote and will definitely read that one!
Hi, Myra! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog - I think you're the first person to even look at it! I love how you've set yours up, it looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI have not read any of the Percy Jackson series. Actually, I read a good portion of the Lightning Thief to my kids, and then my son took it camping and finished it on his own. That was his first novel, and I was so proud of him because he was only 7 at the time. Now he's finished the series, and Ailis, my 8 year old daughter, has also finished the series. They both love these books soooooooo much! Guess I should try them for myself?
Anyway, look forward to reading more of your reviews. Hugs, Roxy.
