 Stories for Children Magazine 5 Star Review June 11, 2008
This is book 3 in the Percy Jackson & the Olympians series. This time Percy receives an urgent distress call from his best friend Grover, a satyr which looks human expect for his goat legs and hooves. Percy immediately prepares for battle and knows he'll need help from his powerful demigod friends, Annabeth and Thalia; his trusty celestial bronze sword, Riptide; and . . . a ride from his mom? The half-bloods are only between the ages of 14 and 16. With Greek Gods and humans as parents . . . who has time to learn to drive a car? As a demigod, you're usually too busy fighting demons to worry about small things like that. Good thing Percy's mom is use to all the odd things involving her son.
Percy and his friends race to the rescue, and find that Grover has made an important discovery: two new powerful half-bloods whose parentage is unknown even to them. But that's not all that awaits them. The Titan lord, Kronos, has set up his most devious trap yet, and the young heroes have played right into it.
With the help of the Greek Gods and Artemis's Hunters, Percy and his friends charge into another quest that holds the fate of Olympus in his hands.
The Percy Jackson & Olympians series keep getting better with each book. Young readers begin to understand what the Fates have in store for their young hero Percy Jackson. More details about Chiron's prophecy are revealed and one of the Big Three has to make a choice many readers wouldn't expect. This series is one Harry Potter fans shouldn't miss and one reluctant readers won't want to put down!
The Titans Curse June 9, 2008
This series was read by my 5th grader who didn't know who the greek heros were. He read it in less than a week and completed the 4 book series in a month. It encouraged him to go on to read other books on mythology. We hope Rick Riordan continues the series! He made education fun for my boy.
YES! June 3, 2008
now we are back on track! this is alot better than the last attempt. this has alot more action and shines light on new characters and events. also, about the gods that DID break the vow (hades) this is the best book in the series so far. CHECK IT OUT!
Excellent Book May 26, 2008
My 13 year old son had to read this book for a school report. As an option for extra credit, I read it also and completed a parent's book report for the teacher. This book was fantastic. I was surprised I enjoyed it so much. But, I tend to enjoy books on mythology.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians is a wonderful series that opens up to readers the greek mythology and vocabulary in a fun and exciting way. The twists and turns in the story keep it exciting, and make it enjoyableall the way to the end. The interplay between Percy and Zoe Naghtshade throughout the story show how different Percy is from the typical Greek Hero.
