Very clever author

I just finished reading this with my 12 year old niece and we had such fun. The author writes in a humorous tone, especially the chapter titles. Amy was studying Greek gods in school at the same time, so she figured out what the characters would do as we encountered them.

I just ordered the next two in the series.... can't wait!

This book was really good. I'm sixteen and I loved it and I'm very picky when it comes to fantasy series. It has its slow moments every once in awhile, but not many books don't. Very interesting and original story, A LOT of suprises. It's also very funny, I laughed out loud a few times. If you like Harry Potter like I do, you'll absolutely LOVE this series.

Great book for the whole family!

I borrowed this book from the library after I heard it won an award. I was planning to read it to my 7 yr old son and at first I was worried about finishing it in the allotted two weeks. However, both of us enjoyed the story so much, we finished it in just 2 days! My son even opted to skip watching TV to listen to the book. My mother who was visiting and doesn't normally like fantasy books also liked it and often sat with us to listen to the story. My husband heard bits of it in the car and then snuck off with the book after my son went to bed so he could read the entire book himself.

The story is very funny and moves quickly. It really gets your imagination going picturing the characters and their adventures.

My son was lucky enough to have Rick Riordan come to his class. He was so excited, he made me buy all of the books in this series. He got them all autographed! These stories are well written and keep you entertained again and again. We usually fight over who will the read the next book first. We highly recommend these books.

Great book.

Although it seemed to start out a bit slow, the book became a lot more better as I read through. A very interesting read, and highly reccommended.
