Although I&#39;ve yet to read book 5.<br /><br />Never thought about the &quot;doesn&#39;t know the last line of the prophecy&quot; connection. LOL! It reads totally different, but still, fantasy books share EVERYTHING. Not that I mind one whit. :)Jenna St. Hilairehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04474588706124865006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22927650.post-27964276941927406842012-01-26T08:38:23.327-08:002012-01-26T08:38:23.327-08:00They are actually a fun read. Certainly not with the depth of Potter but I&#39;m thinking Riordan wasn&#39;t necessarily going for that. Just telling his own story in his own style. Although it may have taken me awhile to read through the series, each time I loaded up a book on my Kindle, I pretty much had to keep reading the book, which made them go quick. <br /><br />I have a gajillion other things to read but I&#39;m already trying to decide which Riordan series to start next, his Kane Chronicles or Heroes of Olympus.Georgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16501327753737422337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22927650.post-74699600493791090442012-01-26T06:43:36.071-08:002012-01-26T06:43:36.071-08:00Hmmm... That whole &quot;doesn&#39;t know the last line of the prophecy thing&quot; sounds a wee bit familiar.... ;)<br /><br />Overall, sounds like a great deal of fun.Carrie-Ann Biondihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09769201617294313094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22927650.post-84437858652508393262012-01-25T22:39:04.582-08:002012-01-25T22:39:04.582-08:00Yeah, I consider them light reading, though it&#39;s light reading of a sort I particularly enjoy--a mixture of humor and drama, without too much of one trumping the other.<br /><br />I&#39;m looking forward to reading The Last Olympian. And thanks! :)Jenna St. Hilairehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04474588706124865006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22927650.post-70455631299463913462012-01-25T12:52:29.524-08:002012-01-25T12:52:29.524-08:00Like most of the <i>Percy</i> books it was good but not necessarily great. All of them are extremely readable, though, &amp; engaging to some extent. <br /><br />I&#39;ll look forward to your review of <i>The Last Olympian</i>.Georgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16501327753737422337noreply@blogger.com
