Review: What a way to finish a solid series off! - After the usual cliffhanger of a book that precedes the finale, I was very eager to read The Last Olympian (Book 5). What I read was above and beyond any book in the series and an absolute fantastic way to finish it out. As Battle of the Labyrinth set up previously, the final showdown between the Olympians and Kronos draws dangerously close to being a reality. This is what Percy and all the other demigods in camp have been training for their entire lives, but will it be enough or in time to stop the Titan army? As the book opens, we learn Kronos is back and getting stronger than ever in the body of Luke and with each traitor that crosses over, helps him gain a stronger foothold in the mortal world again. As The Last Olympian opens, preparations from Camp Half-Blood against the Titan Lord and his army are underway. However, Percy and company have a bit more to worry about than just Kronos himself. They must also figure out a way to help the Gods of Olympus defeat the literal "Father of all monsters" in Typhon, who was accidentally released when Percy nearly destroyed Mount St. Helens the previous summer. As Typhon walks again, he sets his sights on now rampaging in a path of destruction towards New York City where there will be no stopping him if he reaches The Summit of Olympus. The search for the upper hand takes Percy on a very interesting journey, of which includes a very interesting visit to the mother of Luke in order to find anything that would explain just why Luke became who he became and why Luke would ever serve someone like Kronos. What will Percy learn from this meeting? What could the mother of Luke have to offer Percy that would help when it matters the most? Riordan crafts the answers to these questions very nicely and does an excellent job of not giving them away until the very end. With that said, The Last Olympian is certainly not without its fair share of surprises and "ah ha!" moments. Percy's story is complimented very well by the lovable characters of Grover and Annabeth but equally as well by characters like Nico where you're never sure what side they're on. Readers up to this point will be very intrigued after they see what Rachel's role is towards the end as well. It ends up making perfect sense for her, but you don't quite realize what her true potential is until the last few pages. I wasn't ready to give any book in the series 5 stars so far, but this one truly won me over. I don't like to give a lot of books 5 stars unless they really earn them and this book definitely did that. Everything seemed to work just right with The Last Olympian. From the pacing to the action scenes to the character development, it all just fit nicely. Even though it's a series primarily aimed at young adults, the humor and knowledge you gain of mythology throughout this book and this series is truly refreshing to see for any age. Whether you're looking for a good summer read or a good summer read that teaches you something in the process, don't make the mistake of missing out on this series! -Travis S.
Review: PERCY JACKSON AND THE LAST OLYMPIAN REVIEW - Author: Rick Riordan Publisher: Hyperion Books/Penguin Books Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian by Rick Riordan is an extremely enthralling book that you will never want to put down. The whole series is great, and is also an interesting way to learn about Greek Mythology, whilst reading about Percy, the main character and also a Demigod, and his adventures. Rick manages to bring the Mythology to life throughout this whole series, whether it be when the Demigods are at Camp Half-Blood or the Olympians are fighting Typhon, the Father of All Monsters. I assure you there is not one scene in this book that will not leave you wanting to continue reading. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in Mythology or wanting a book that will always keep them on the edge of their seat. Rick Riordan has written the whole series from Percy's perspective, and I find that really helps you gain a better connection with each of the characters. Whatever Percy feels about a certain character, you tend to feel the same way, as it is written in first person. The advantage of writing this series in the first person is that it makes the reader feel like they are actually there, doing what Percy is doing, whether they are fighting the Drakon or finding out what the Great Prophecy is. I think that finally discovering what the Great Prophecy says in the last book of the series helps build suspense throughout the series because you sit there wondering "What is the Great Prophecy?" "What will the Prophecy say?" "Will the Prophecy mean something bad for Percy?" or "I wish I knew what the Great Prophecy is". The storyline of The Last Olympian is similar to the other books in the series; however, this is the final stand between Percy and Luke, who has been turned into Kronos. The Demigods must save Camp Half-Blood and Mount Olympus, before the Olympians fall and the Titans rise to rule the world. The last battle between the Demigods and the Titans takes place in New York. Morpheus, the God of Dreams, has put the city under a spell so the mortals are not aware of what is going on. The suspense of whether the Demigods win or are defeated by the Titans makes you anxious, and you never want to stop reading until you reach the last page. Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian is one of the best books I have ever read. At first, I was hesitant to read the series; however, as soon as I read Percy Jackson and the Lighting Thief, I had to continue reading the whole series. Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian is truly an incredible book and I look forward to begin reading the second series, The Heroes of Olympus.
