Product Description |
As an incoming freshman, Percy isn't expecting his high school orientation to be any fun. But when a mysterious mortal acquaintance appears, followed by demon cheerleaders, things quickly move from bad to worse.
In this fourth installment of the blockbuster series, time is running out as war between the Olympians and the evil Titan lord Kronos draws near. Even the safe haven of Camp Half Blood grows more vulnerable by the minute as Kronos's army prepares to invade its once impenetrable borders. To stop them, Percy and his demigod friends will set out on a quest through the Labyrinth-a sprawling underground world with stunning surprises at every turn. Full of humor and heart-pounding action, this fourth book promises to be their most thrilling adventure yet.

Outstanding |
|
Another fine addition to the "Percy Jackson and The Olympians" series. Like the earlier books, this one has humor, adventure, and non-stop action. These books also serve as a wonderful introduction to Greek mythology. I can't wait for the next in this series! |

nice book |

I ordered this book for my 12-year-old son. First, I must say that I use the regular delivery speed, and I received this book in four days, which was faster than I expected. My son loves this book very much. Right after he got this book, he started reading. I had to tell him several times that it was time to go to sleep, please stop reading. He simply could not put this book down. Now he is recommending this book to all of his friends in our neighborhood. |

Will Blow You Off Your Feet |
This is, by far, one of the best books that I've read all year. I've been a fan of Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians series ever since I picked up The Lightning Thief a few months ago, and the series hasn't let me down yet. I would even say that this book is the best one in the series so far. It had me constantly flipping pages to see what new and exciting adventures my favorite demigod hero got himself mixed up in.
This time, Riordan builds on the myth of the labyrinth and the minotaur for his story. Hero-in-training Percy must traverse the many perils of the ancient and mysterious labyrinth with his demigod friends and recent mortal friend, Rachel Elizabeth Dare to protect Camp Half-Blood. There is absolutely no lack of action in this book. The characters are constantly getting in and out of trouble while plot moves forward and thickens.
This book really made me feel like a kid again. I got so caught up in Percy's adventures that I felt the same excitement that he did as he explored this rich, modern version of Greek mythology. The story would be a little bit difficult to understand if you haven't read the previous books, but it's a treat for those who have. Riordan effortlessly weaves together previous characters andplot lines into something new while throwing in an occasional reminder of how his world works.
I thought Battle was a great novel of adventure and helped me escape from the world for a little. Even if you are older than the series' target audience, it's worth picking up. If not for the action, than for the modern humor that Riordan infuses into something ancient and traditional. Highly recommended! |
