Chronicle As Books Percy Jackson and the Olympians Boxed Set (Percy Jackson and the Olympians #1-5)
before we start;a READERS ATTENTION!:
Rick Riordan's series Order:
first, Percy Jackson
then Heroes of Olympus
at last, Trials of Apollo & Magnus Chase is happening at the same time; they have crossovers sometimes.
(or read in this order: Camp Half-Blood Chronicles)
I warned everywhere I could, because I'm nervous you might read in wrong order & you won't enjoy as much as you should.
anyway...
generally I love those fantasy stories happening in our world, they're apparently named low fantasy, but I call them: Fantasy in reality. (& not just my favourite in books, but movies & tv shows too)
When fantasy elements bind in reality; we know a boring damn world (reality) & then... magic came! or myths or travel between universes. I live in that world (as a reader lives a thousands of lives) & I feel happy.
also familiar sense in other way like I know places & cities (I mean in almost all high fantasy stories I'm just confused with the strange names & wondering where they were.)
& even heroes have been shocked when they actually entered their fantasy world. (so they know that world with me & I can relate with their surprise, feelings, fears, etc)
so it made very easy to believe they can be real, somewhere, somehow, in a corner of this world magic exists (Harry Potter), you can travel to parallel universes (Pendragon) or mythology lives among us. (Percy Jackson)
my top fav series has another features too: they are about the subjects I actually love to know about in science. (magic, parallel universes, Myths)
& now whole review of one of my favourite series:
Complete 5 Golden Stars
Idea: ★★★★★/5
I said thousand times that I love love love mythology, especially Greek mythology.
-
World building: ★★★★★/5
mythology in fantasy, sign me in!
I love how myths wrapped up in reality & how this fiction built up. & monsters, rules of this world, Demigods, villains... everything seems real & realistic! I love realistic fictions. when you can just simply imagine the story is actually happening somewhere in this world. U know what I mean?π
-
Characters: ★★★★★/5:
so many great characters, I mean yeah my top favourite character is Percy (& Annabeth is my top fav female charcter) but there is so many great characters you simply Love & can't decide which one you love more & you enjoy the moments they make! characters like Tyson, Grover, Luke, Nico, Chiron, Rachel, Beckendorf, Clarisse (yeah I like her too!), Mr. D & his intentional wrong names, Calypso, Bianca, Ethane, more & more. I have 3 favourite gods (Apollo, Poseidon, Hades)
I always say:
Great characters make a great story, great!
(& great idea & written style & humor of course, but first I should find a character I care about.(here, in this series, are more than just one; also like in other Rick Riordan's series, Harry Potter, Pendragon & some more))
& their developments are very realistic & fantastic!
those parts when they are brave & inspire you to be brave in your life.
the "I can do it" power
& my top OTP is here!π

Ladies and gentleman of the jury I find the book The Titans Curse by Rick Riordian to be excellent at teaching me about Greek history, giving me the thrill of action and at the same time making me laugh. However, there were areas in which the book was not quite as good at teaching people how to deal with problems without pulling out a sword, and fighting them. But I do know how to kill a monster if I ever need to. The book Titans curse was made in the year 2007. It has 312 pages, and is

Favorite: book IV - Battle of the LabyrinthI majored in Greek mythology at college, so I can say happily, with some authority, that Riordan really knows his stuff and gets it right. No matter how brief the reference and how it's reused for the adventure, he gives snippets that kids, anyone, can latch onto and be consistent with more academic approaches. Also means, if you're already familiar with the mythology, he lets you feel very clever by letting you recognize a being a page in advance
The third book was my absolute favourite. Addition of new characters and concepts was a real turning point of the feel of the series. Once you start you can't put it down as every page promises a new beginning better than the last.
I don't actually have/never read this particular boxed set edition, but it was the only one I could find that included all the books. I read the Percy Jackson series quite a while ago, and then again last year, and both readings were enjoyable. I was a bit skeptical of the writing (I was not sure that I would like the first person narration of a teen aged boy) but was surprised that it caught me. I love the Mythology theme, and the characters, and I never was bored during any of the books. They
