monsters, Greek gods and demi-gods, adventure, mildly amusing fun
Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon, goes on a quest to save his friend Annabeth. New friends are made. Monsters attack. Lots of Greek characters wander in and out. I listened to this audiobook during a recent business trip. It was fun: not exceptional, but a good time. I have enjoyed getting to know the Greek characters and have wanted to go back to my copy of D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths to read more. I will definitely listen to the last two books in the series.
Jesse Bernstein’s accents in the audiobook drive me crazy, but I’ll survive.
