Review: Over the last year, I have aquainted myself on Rick Riordan's Greek Mythology books of demigods and their adventures. The first five books were amazing and with his recent release, The Lost Hero, is a continuity of the Percy Jackson books. In other words, this is the beginning of another book series; but with three new characters and plot twists. Without giving anything away, Ill give you a little bit to help you understand the book. A teenage boy name Jason wakes up on a bus, not remembering who he is or who his friends are. Piper, his friend and "possible" girlfriend and his other friend, Leo. They all go to the Wilderness School for troubled teens. On a field trip, weird things begin to happen and they end up at Camp-Half Blood where hidden truths are revealed to them; starting an adventure they will never forget. Why is Jason's memory blank? What is so significant about his two friends and what do their hidden truths have to do with their quest? How bout that for a teaser haha. I have to say that I finished this book last night and was amazed from beginning to end, I even figured out the culprit behind it before reaching the end, but I'll leave that to you to discover hehe. Yes, this book is meant for teenagers; but Im not afraid to admit that I'm 24 and read these books. I have been a fan of greek mythology ever since high school, always been fascinated with the stories. The way that Rick Riordan made these century old myths modern is in my opinion, very fascinating. When certain parts are reached and a discovery of greek mythology character is revealed, he also gives a background that explains the character but to a extent where the parents do not have to take the book away from them. Think of it this way: the myths are censored, but still stay true to the age old myths. Plus the three newbies get to ride a dragon made of bronze as the cover of book distinctly shows. A few characters from the original series are in the book but do not join the quest, as they have their own quests to deal with. The battles in the book are written with great detail and gives your imagination a workout. I would say these books are for any age range, especially Greek Mythology lovers. The one flaw of the book: when you get to the end of the book, it leaves you wanting more. Writing books is a delicate process and the way Rick wrote the previous books and this latest one, it takes time and planning. With taking Greek Myths and making them modern, take the time you need. The next book, The Son of Neptune (nudge nudge wink wink), comes out Fall 2011. If you are looking for something interesting to read or you are trying to get your kids read while secretly teaching them, then this book and previous books are your best bet of enjoyment. It is Harry Potter, but with Greek Myths and magic. (no wands)
Review: My granddaughter loves these books. She’s in grade 6 and she spends hours reading which is great in my opinion as it’s less time looking at Minecraft.

Ich hab das Buch innerhalb einer Woche gelesen und das trotz Arbeitsstresses und anderen Verpflichtungen, die eigentlich weit oben auf meiner Liste stehen hättem müssen. Dennoch konnte ich das Buch nie für lange aus der Hand legen. Für mich ist es ein sehr gelungener Nachfolger von "Percy Jackson and the Olypians" und wird dem auch gerecht. Man findet bekanntest wieder, wird aber auch mit Neuem konfrontiert, was dem ganzen gerade diese Würze gibt, was es so schwer macht sich davon zu trennen. Aber bevor ich weiter schreibe, sei vor Spoilern gewannt. ;) Ganz besonders klever war es gewesen, gleich in den ersten beiden Kapiteln verlauten zu lassen, dass Percy Jackson einfach so verschwunden ist. Man WILL wissen, wo er hin ist, was mit ihm passiert ist und man spinnt sich beständig seine eigenen Theorien zurecht - und kommt bis zum Schluss doch nicht auf die Antwort. Und dann wird man am Ende mit einem Cliff hängen gelassen bei dem man sich denkt: Das kann jetzt nicht wahr sein!!! Und deswegen mag ich das Buch so sehr. Aber nicht nur deswegen... Doch mal schön der Reihe nach. Die neuen Charas waren mir sehr sympathisch, auch wenn Jason so eine negative Denkweise hat.^^° Das er Thalias Bruder ist fand ich am Anfange etwas merkwürdig - wirkte leicht aus dem Hut gezaubert, aber es fügte sich dann ein und zum Glück ist Thalia nicht die Schwester, die ihrem Bruder nun immer hinterher läuft oder groß Tränen vergießt. Sie weiß schon, dass er sein Ding macht. Piper - man hat ihre eigene charakterliche Entwicklung gesehen, von Unsicher und Unscheinbar wurde sie zu einer Führungsperson, die sich gegen andere auflehnt und für ihre Meinung eintritt. Und das sie ein Kind von Aphrodite ist, zeigt glaube ich, dass die Göttin wirklich mehr drauf hat, als nur gebrochene Herzen zu verursachen. -.^ Obwohl ich hoffe, dass Pipers Herz nicht durch Jason gebrochen wird. o.O Selbst, wenn er eine andere Freundin hatte, finde ich dennoch dass die beiden ein sehr schönes Pärchen abgeben - wenn sie es beide überleben. Das ist ja immer so eine Sache. Leo - sein aufgesetzer Humor hat mich genervt, aber am Ende hin hat es sich gelegt.^^ Das er dann Hausvorstand wird, war logisch und er hat sich selbst etwas bewiesen, was glaube ich noch wichtiger war. Die Unterscheidung zwischen römischen und griechischen Göttern, hat mich am Anfang verwirrt, handelt es sich doch um ein und die selben Personen. Gleichzeitig eröffnet das natürlich eine Fülle von Millionen neuen Möglichkeiten. Während des lesens wuchs der Verdacht natürlich, dass die römischen Götter ihren Nachwuchs wo anders aufziehen und das hat sich ja dann bestätigt. Tja und nun bleiben am Ende zwei große Fragen: 1. Wie ist es Percy ergangen? 2. Welche Halbgötter sind noch an der Prophezeiung beteiligt? Drei haben wir schon, aber der Rest - von welchem Gott stammen sie ab? Deswegen kann ich es schon kaum mehr abwarten, endlich nächstes Jahr hier um die Zeit zu sitzen und "The Son of Neptune" gelesen zu haben... es wird großartig, davon bin ich überzeugt. Aber erst einaml sollte man sich dieses Buch nicht entgehen lassen! Es lohnt sich jede Seite!
