"The classic formula: kid finds out he's special, must go to a special school, saves the world. Super fun take on Greek mythology and bringing it into the modern day. Kids who are into the Greek gods will love it."

"this whole series is absolutely perfect for any reader. The characters are amazing, the story lines are intriguing and you will most likely learn a little something about Greek mythology on the way. 5/5⭐"

"Eh… I really don’t know what to say about this book. I really tried to like it as I have always heard good things, however, it just didn’t keep my attention."

"I started reading Percy Jackson around a year after reading the song of Achilles, I wish I read this series as a kid but reading it as a teenager is still great! This first book is definitely not my favorite but it’s kinda the beginning of it all and i mean- where would we be without it?"
