 The final book-The Last OlympianAug 29, 2010
This book continues and supposedly ends the saga of Percy Jackson. He has matured from a 12 year old to the ripe age of 16, and his character has matured consistently with his chronological age. Roirdan has superbly detailed the character traits of the Olympic gods, as well as the newest set of monsters. I will miss reading more about Percy.

Better than the last Potter book!Aug 25, 2010
I might get hate mail for this, but Rick Riordan is a better writer than J.K Rowling. She killed off beloved characters in the last book and seemed to have fun doing it. While the last 3 books lacked the aspects of what made the franchise a hit in the first place. They are darker and not as magical or funny even. "The movies have even been less fun to watch since the first 4. The Half Blood Prince was the most moody and depressing of them all."
With that said, Rick Riordan never forgets what made his franchise fun to read in the first place. Riordan might have stole some things from Rowling and there would be no Percy Jackson if there wasn't a Harry Potter first. You'll find many things that might remind you of Potter as you read these books, but in a way these books are more satisfying and fun to read never less.
Take this last book for example, it's darker with some characters dieing but Riordan never goes too far with who he kills off, unlike Rowling. While there's still room for plenty of humor and magic through all the non-stop action. That's something the last Potter book was missing. I just remember many beloved characters dieing, I don't remember much humor or fun even.
audio books are addictiveAug 24, 2010
Finally bought the last book of the Percy Jackson series. Wonderful story. Great performance. My kids (6 & 8) love listening to books. I am hooked on audio books for the car. I highly recommend the books for anyone who likes adventure and fun.
