Worth Taking

"Always a favourite. As a teacher I have had this book stolen twice from my class. So I bought one more just for my own kids."

— C. T. (5/5)

AMAZING AHHHH

"HOLY SHIT THAT WAS AMAZING OH MY GOD THAT ENDING HAS ME SHOOK"

— Helena (5/5)

Great

"When I first got ""The Lost Hero"" from the library, I had no idea it was apart of the Percy Jackson universe. I hadn't read the ""Percy Jackson and the Olympians"" series before this, but I was slightly familiar with the world through the movie, so it wasn't greatly difficult to understand. But I DEFINITELY recommend reading that series before ""The Heroes of Olympus"". Anyway, this book captivated me from the start! The idea of Jason losing his memory highly interested me, and I initially thought there would be a mystery aspect this story. . . which there was. Eventually through further reading I found out that this was related to the Percy Jackson universe, and I'm not gonna lie, I was a bit disappointed, mostly because its movie was the only feature I had been exposed to, and wasn't impressed with it. Some terminology or settings were confusing which is why I couldn't give this 5 stars. Aside from that, the book was a quick read for me! I loved reading about the characters slowly finding out the truth, and it's worth a try."

2018 TBR

"Looking forward to reading this one in the next few months!"

— Jessica (5/5)

Awesome!

"This book had an amazing storyline, cool characters and all you could ask for form a Rick Riordan book. Unfortunately, we didn't get a chance to see Percy or the other PJO characters, unless you count those few pages with Annabeth getting stressed out (no spoilers!) Leo was my favourite character in this book. His humor had me laughing out loud and his backstory had me weeping on the ground. I have already read the rest of the series so if you don't enjoy this book, as most people happen to, don't worry. I promise you it get 100% better as you get into the next books. Also, get hyped for the second book because with the cliffhanger to this one. . . . it's pretty intense."

Older, More Mature Demigods

"This reads more like a YA series starter than middle grade, considering the demigods we meet in this book are well into their teen years, but Riordan's writing is no less entertaining because of it. It's much different, reading about unfamiliar characters - and missing a familiar, green-eyed face - but it's interesting to read about these new demigods, and watch two different ancient cultures come together in a common goal. Personally, I still like the original Percy Jackson series better, but these books are also very well-written. I would expect nothing less from Riordan."

— Amanda (4/5)

Good Book

"Here's the thing. This book isn't bad. But the reason Percy was such a great hero is because he didn't just start out woopie I'm amazing and kill titans, he started out killing smaller monsters and eventually grew into the hero he was at the end of the series. Basically Percy (and Annabeth of course) have character growth that I could believe in, and I cared for and rooted for the characters. The way Jason and Piper are introduced makes it hard for me to invest in them as much as I was invested in Percy and Annabeth. They do have growth, but somehow I care about them less. In the next book I'm totally on board, and the later books do have growth for all the characters, but idk I just wasn't huge fans of Jason and Piper. Leo's pretty awesome though. Still a good book, but I respect Percy and Annabeth and their character growth/struggles wayyyyyy more. In my opinion, the first series is better than this one, especially as the numbers of characters grows and the narrative has to be spread really thinly between all of them. Didn't stop me from reading all of it though, so maybe my standards are just set too high."

— Deanna (4/5)

Great!! :-)

"First note: Yes it is ideal to read the original series before this one, 'Percy Jackson and the Olympians'. You will have a more fun time reading this series, understanding events and jokes, and just having an overall background of the characters is always a great thing!!! Though Percy wasn't in this book, I has a great time reading this book. Don't fret, he does appear in the next books :P Leo was absolutely my favourite character. His humor had my laughing out loud!!!! defiantly recommend this book to any one who is a fan of Percy Jackosn"

OK

"This book was not as good as the Percy Jackson series, however since it occurs in the same universe it was still worth the read. I also liked the different characters and their unique personalities. However, all of the flaws of the Percy Jackson series are accentuated in these books (the over-the-top reactions and action) that I just couldn't like it as much. Which is really too bad because I was looking forward to getting back into the fray. The rest of the series doesn't fare much better and I believe I stopped after the 3rd book or something."

Readers longing for a return to Camp Half-Blood will get their wish in the first novel of the Heroes of Olympus series, which follows Riordan''s popular Percy Jackson and the Olympians series and includes some of the same characters in minor roles. The new cast features Jason, Piper, and Leo, teen demigods who are just coming to understand and use their unique abilities as they learn how much depends upon their wits, courage, and fast-developing friendship. Setting up the books to come, the backstory of a master plan to unseat the gods is complex but is doled out in manageable bits with a general air of foreboding. Meanwhile, the action scenes come frequently as the three heroic teens fight monstrous enemies in North American locales, including the Grand Canyon, Quebec City, Detroit, Chicago, Omaha, Pikes Peak, and Sonoma Valley. Flashes of humor lighten the mood at times, but a tone of urgency and imminent danger seems as integral to this series as the last. With appealing new characters within a familiar framework, this spin-off will satisfy the demand for more. - Carolyn Phelan-Booklist
