Book Review: Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian



Review: #76
Title: Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian
Series: Percy Jackson and the Olympians - 5th and last book
Author: Rick Riordan
Read Before: yes
My Comments: Really love this last book which wraps up the series very nicely. The thought and the plot that went into this is outstanding, with an ending that was really unexpected. I realise that this book is one of those that you must reread to get the full experience, and understand everything, and it shows in this fourth reread. Also good if you can read it all in one go as you think, wow, a lot has happened in three hundred odd pages, and what’s more, it doesn't leave any loose ends and gives you that very satisfying feeling of finishing an adventure. It is so easy to lose yourself into the world the author has created, and everything fits so perfectly, it’s amazing. The ending is really sweet and I guess one of the sad things about it is that in the continuing series, you pretty much start over again, and you lose the networks that main character has already built, and I miss that. Definitely a great book, and one that impacts as much as Titan’s Curse.
