I feel like I always say this with RR books, but this was another solid addition to the series. Great story line, great character (we meet more gods!) and we see some old favorites as well. The tension is really starting to build and I'm looking forward to seeing what happens in the next story. I would recommend this book. 5 out of 5 stars. ( )

I read this book to my 11 year old son, one chapter a night before bed. much to my son's dismay as he begged me to read a 2nd chapter almost everynight. It caught and held his attention. I stumbled over all the Greek gods' names but the action is there and it's a great book and series for the preteen. ( )

Another great book.
Spoiler-Free: Should keep reading Percy Jackson? Yes. It’s another fun adventure. However, I think this is the weakest book so far. I don’t mean it in a bad way. It follows the same formula as the last two books. If you like the formula of the books, keep reading.
The best part I like is the ending. Where Nico is Hades' Son. However, he was born before the 3 brothers made an oath to not have any more kids. He the gods found out; they will fight each other again. Thalia is a sad character. She’s been through a lot in short period. Losing Luke to the titans. Being chase by strong monsters. Worrying about the Percy and Annabeth. On top of that, being a pawn to the gods. That’s a lot in short time. Riordan does a good job in showing how much she’s been through. I wish we could spend more time with her. Hopefully in book 4. I do like the origin story of Percy’s sword, Riptide.

I cannot be disappointed in this series. It’s just too good! The world you get sucked into is amazing! The author has made it so realistic that you feel like you could be a part of it yourself. You’ll never be bored reading this book. There’s so many new myths and monsters to learn about. I love seeing where are these Greek things are in the modern world. Like Mount Olympus in New York and San Francisco. It’s just so cool!

I really liked the story in this one. It’s funny how Percy always gets sucked into these things. I’m super happy he was going to find Annabeth. I loved how Aphrodite got a little involved for a minute. It was really cute. I also really, really love Artemis and was happy to see her in this one. It was so sad that she got kidnapped with Annabeth. Plus Bessie was really cool too.

The characters get better and better each book. Percy is starting to understand his world a little bit more now. He’s also starting to get attached to Annabeth I think. I can’t wait for that to happen. Annabeth is as fantastic as usual and Grover is hilarious. I even started to like Thalia and Zoe. They were really interesting characters.

Basically this was an excellent book that everyone needs to read. Right away. ( )

I'm just sad after reading that. But it was so good. I was so excited and scared with anticipation the entire time. I'm so excited that I got to meet Nico... though I hate how it ended between him and Percy. I hope it all gets figured out. Though I can't wait to read the next one I am scared. ( )
