    No, seriously, it is. Recommended for those that need some, and also for people that like fiction. - A school student that decided to tell this to you, and also likes the books Rick makes.

    Okay so I love every book Uncle Rick writes, my sister first lent me her pjo books and since then I have been obsessed with it. I can stay up until 5 in the morning rereading his books. I have pretty much every book in each of the series except for the extras. I can’t wait until the Disney PJO show comes out! Anyways I would totally recommend this book and all his others. But you should start from the beginning. It’s called “Percy Jackson And The Lightning Thief” I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did!☺️😍🥰😘😝😜🤪🤓😆🤣
  • Good Book!

    I love every book that Riordan writes, and he has never disappointed me with a bad book. They're always so intriguing, and will leave you yearning to know what comes next. And with this book, it's the same, because I couldn't stop reading it. I would definitely recommend reading this series, and all the other ones, too.
  • of course it was freaking amazing. it’s rick riordan.

    I just finished the book and I couldn’t put it down. I love the new characters and story. I liked Sadie a lot better in this book because she wasn’t COMPLETELY annoying like in The Red Pyramid. She was still a bit annoying though😂. Also, I SHIP WALDIE AND NO ONE CAN STOP ME! At first I though Sadie and Anubis were a good couple, but Walt is just better and isn’t a god. I really hope he doesn’t die. The book was overall amazing. A few things I didn’t like though. I felt as if there wasn’t as much action in the second compared to the first. Yeah, the Kanes had a bunch of monster encounters, but they all seemed small and short. Also, even though I ship Carter and Zia, (Yes, I highly enjoy shipping book characters. No, I’m not sorry.) Carter acted kind of stupid in the book. He acted like Zia was the most important thing in the world, even more important than saving the world and his sister. Though the book did hint that Zia would play an important role later. And when Carter did mouth to mouth resuscitation...that was hilarious😂. My third issue is that Carter hardly did anything. He mostly just ran around like a lovesick puppy, grew ten feet, and almost died on multiple occasions. Meanwhile Sadie is doing cool magic, wakening Ra, and reciting difficult and deadly spells. You’d think the older sibling would do more of the work. Anyways, the characters are amazing in the book. I strangely liked Set a lot in this book. He reminded me of Hades from the Percy Jackson series (you should read those if you haven’t). Menshikov was an interesting antagonist, even though it was Apophis controlling him. Desjardin’s death was annoying. I was finally liking the jerk and then he just dies. I didn’t want Amos to become the Chief Lector, not because I hate him but it just changes everything. Anyways, if you read all of this, it means you enjoyed the book as much as I did. I never write long reviews unless the book was interesting. I’m super excited to read the third book. Bye.
  • Amazing Book!

    I've read all the Percy Jackson and The Olympians books so I was looking for something new. I found this series and it's amazing! I have yet to read the third book, but I'm sure it's going to be just as great! -a Fan!.
