Hey guys Eddie here. Today I will be reviewing all of the Percy Jackson books in one review.
Book: The Percy Jackson Books
Reviewer: Eddie
Publication date: Oct 12 2010
Author: Rick Roirdan
Publisher: Hyperion Books
Synopsis: A young boy named Percy Jackson finds out that he is half Greek god and half human. He goes to a special camp where there are people like him except children of different gods or goddesses. “The Oracle” tells him he must do a bunch of adventuring and world saving from the evil Titan lord Kronos.
Review: The book was OK start with a lot of "OMG I’m half god drama" but not over the top. Then as soon as he starts his journey to the camp, he single handedly kills a minataur 50x his size without a sword or weapon. That's one of the things that I dislike in most books these days.
But what I like is that I think that only some of the really talented authors do: they make it so it seems like an actual teenage boy that is explaining what he is feeling, is talking and not just talking to other people in the book. Example: "The Lightning Thief"
Percy: If you start to feel dizzy after you read the next few pages, I suggest you put the book down.
The next book is all about healing the tree that defends his camp which gets poisoned. And the next books just keep coming together as the heroes and gods defeat the evil titans together. The book does not have that many dramatic parts, which I'm thankful for. Overall: 5 surfboards over 5 surfboards.
