About this ebook

All year the half-bloods have been preparing for battle against the Titans, knowing the odds of victory are grim. Kronos's army is stronger than ever, and with every god and half-blood he recruits, the evil Titan's power only grows. While the Olympians struggle to contain the rampaging monster Typhon, Kronos begins his advance on New York City, where Mount Olympus stands virtually unguarded. Now it's up to Percy Jackson and an army of young demigods to stop the Lord of Time.

Ratings and reviews

It is aawweessoommee. The percy jackson series ars the best starting from the lighting thief when zeus master bolt is stolen. And th sea of monsters when clarisse goes of on a quest to find the golden fleece. Then nthe titan's curse when artemis and annabeth are captured by atlas. Also, the battle of the labyrinth where there's this epic battle takes place at camp half-blood and find dadelus. Finally, the last olympian when the demigods fight for their lives against the titan army.

I have listened to or read every one of these fun Percy Jackson and Jason Grace novels, they're great reads and introduce a lot of different deities and minor gods to the reader. And since research its just a Google search away it is a great gateway to Greek and Roman mythology. The authors Kane Chronicles does the same for Egyptian deities and if you pay attention you may notice a few cross over Easter eggs.

This book contains a lot of choices Percy has to make, which are very difficult for a normal man to make. Although it is based off of Greek mythology, many people will find this book entertaining. As you read on, the characters may feel real even though they're impossible to exist in real life, but thanks to the good writing from Rick, he was able to portray the characters in a way that they can relate to us.
