I read Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan. I enjoyed the first book, Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief, so I read the second one in the Percy Jackson series. The main character is Percy Jackson. The problem in my story concerns a boy named Luke, who used to be a friend of Percy’s but then betrayed him. Luke poisoned the tree that used to be Talia the daughter of Zeus. That tree would put a magical shield around the camp to protect it from monsters. Now that it was poisoned it could no longer protect the camp. The story mostly took place in part of an ocean called the Sea of Monsters in the year 2013.
He is also really brave and likes adventures because he was willing to go on a quest that no man has ever returned from. Percy is also athletic because he loves to do flips and to practice every drill there is at camp. One of the hardest drills is a rock climbing wall that is very high and squirts out burning hot lava.
Percy did some interesting things throughout the story including going on a ferry that had Luke and some monsters on it. Another event that was interesting was a horse race with two people in a carriage that they had to design and build. A big decision that Percy made was to battle one of his brothers – a big ugly cyclops that had killed all of the people that have entered his island . But not someone named Jason who slashed his sword in his one eye and has half blinded the cyclops.
I like this book because it has a lot of fighting and adventure. My favorite fight was when Percy and Annabeth fight the cyclops and Annabeth puts on a cap that turns her invisible. Annabeth called out ”HEY LOOK OVER HERE REMEMBER ME! IT’S NOBODY.” And the cyclops said “No not nobody I remember you.” That is what Jason called him self.
I think the genre of the book is adventure, action, and mystery. I would recommend this book if you like battles. Also if you like Greek mythology. I would rate this book five stars.
I really like this book. This is a great review I think you explained the book with out giving it away.
This book is so good! That is definately the right rating! I love the quote.
This book review is great. I am obsessed with Percy Jackson. This book review gives a lot of information that is good. This book tells a lot about the gods and the characters. I also loved when you talked about the cyclops. I definitely agree with the rating. If there were a ten, I would give it a ten. If you love the book, then watch the movie. I have to admit that the movie is not as good as the book, but it is still good. If I were to give your book review a rating I would give it a ten. I am encouraging you to read the other Percy Jackson books and to watch the two movies. This book review tells the story, but does not give away the story. I think you explained the story very, very well. It definitely told what it needed to tell. Good job Zach.
I don’t really like Percy Jackson but the way you described the book made me want to read it.
I read this book before but what you said about it dragged me in to the book.
