I wanted to read this series as I have seen it everywhere and I’m slightly disappointed in myself for not picking this up when I was much younger. However, as a 23-year-old reading Percy Jackson for the first time, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and didn’t want it to end.

This book follows Percy Jackson who has been dreaded this day for as long as he has known he has known who the father is. Most people get presents on their sixteenth birthday, Percy got a prophecy that could save or destroy the world. It happens when you’re the son of Poseidon, God of the Sea. According to the ancient prophecy, he turns sixteen and the fate of the entire world is on him. But no pressure. Now Kronos, Lord of the Titans, is beginning his attack on New York City. And the dreaded evil monster Typhon is also heading their way. So, it’s Percy and the camp and his friends his made along the way versus the untold evil.

This was the book I was waiting for; I didn’t want this book to end, and I was also terrified for how it was going to end. I loved this book. Everything came to a point, and it was wrapped in a neat bow. It had its bits of serious but then still complete banter, and you can tell that it was about a sixteen-year-old. There is a whole ass fight and Percy is worried about upsetting both Rachel and Annabeth. I love how the world is getting built with the action like you don’t feel behind and you know what’s going on. This is because of how Rick Riordan has a way of describing things in such a youthful way. I loved this storyline and how Percy has fully grown up and how he ends up making a deal with the gods about reclaiming their kids.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this book and I’m sad this series is over but so glad that the TV show is now up and running. I have seen that there is a sixth book, and instantly pre-ordered that but in the meantime, I'll be watching the TV show on repeat.
