Loading... The Last Olympian (2009)by Rick Riordan
The Lightning Thief is smiliar in ways to the movie. It's about Percy who finds out that he is a demi-god. Zeus and Poseidon are about to have a major war and Percy has to go on a quest to stop it. A really great series that I can't wait to finish.  honeydew69862004 | May 12, 2013 |  I really enjoyed this book. It finished out the series strong and left me hoping he carries on with a "next gen" kind of thing. I would buy and read more if he did. (  ) Ameliapei | Apr 18, 2013 | I think I wouldn't have been as disappointed if I hadn't expected this book to be the best of the series. As always I love Rick Riordan's style...but the LAST OLYMPIAN was less creative than it's predecessors. ( ) Ritastradling | Apr 15, 2013 | ** spoiler alert ** Loved it! Good wins over evil...surprise, surprise. But those kids never give up hope! Not to mention, I love getting a refresher of Greek mythology as I read a good story. (  ) melissarochelle | Apr 13, 2013 | From now on, this is what I will think of when I think 'boy book'. It's well-written and tautly plotted, but the fighting just goes on and on and on. The series comes to a close in a truly epic and satisfying way, the loose ends are tied up in lovely little bows and the curtain falls at precisely the proper moment. I've enjoyed these five books mightily. And the last Olympian may be my favorite character in the whole series. All that being said, the constant battling just wasn't my thing, though I'm very glad to have read it so I could find out the ending. And I'm not ruling out reading the next Half-blood series that Riordan half-promises. (  ) satyridae | Apr 5, 2013 |
 The action, never leisurely in any of the five books in the series, runs at a frantic pace here — monsters pop out with a rapidity that becomes almost predictable, except that they are so enjoyably hair-raising, and that Riordan has such clever ways of dispatching them. Is contained in
