This book is so scrumptious. I tried to pace myself and take my time with this one to truly savor it, but it was so compelling I finished it within two days.

This book is 5 stars.. to me. I understand that there are many flaws and the characters suffer a bit (i.e. Piper) from trends of the time, but it really truly is the book that got me into percy jackson. A special place in my heart for this book. It had the daunting task of setting up a grand plot with unfamiliar characters, and I think it really accomplished what it set out to do.
