Still like these better than Mr. Potter.
Percy and friends have it hard this time. Annabeth has been chosen to lead a team into the labyrinth, which they have discovered an entry in Camp Half-Blood. Grover has been given a week to fine the God, Pan, or his searcher's license will be revoked. Luke is an ever present threat, as well as Kronos. But I can't tell too much more, or I will give it all away.
This series is still good. In fact, it's so good. I devoured this book in about two sittings and now I should reread it because, wow... it's so good! I feel like Riordan is starting to go downward on his story arc, so I believe we can expect one, maybe two more books, and that is it. That said, these are quite popular, and Riordan may be compelled to pull an L. Frank Baum and just continue to write the series.
These are still one of my favorites. I like them more than Harry Potter, still, because it's Greek mythology and that has always been a favorite of mine. I will be sad to see these go. That said, we have a little while before that happens. I'm so glad that Riordan continues to write this, and I am so glad that it is snowballing in popularity. I love these books. I loved this book. I am so happy about it all.
This is a wonderful series -
Percy Jackson always knew he was different...turns out that he's a demi-god...that means the child of a god and a mortal - at a certain age, he gets the word to go to a camp for these kids - it's called appropriately Camp Half-Blood...
You know the Greek Gods - they were powerful and er, prolific...needless to say there are a lot of kids at the camp!
Each summer these kids go on a quest - things are happening - the Titans are trying to come back and defeat the Greek Gods - Yikes!
The kids of the camp have to enter the Labyrinth to stop the Titan revolt. They meet another child of Athena - Daedalus - remember Daedalus and his son Icarus? That's the guy -
This book continues to amaze the adventure and Rick Riordan is amazingly accurate in his knowledge in Greek Mythology - I take my Hamilton book on mythology out and learn more and more every time I read one of Riordan's books.
Love Percy Jackson - OK the series is for kids...but us big kids really love the series too.
