This is my seventh Rick Riordan's read, with books having the same intriguing style of writing, yet I am hooked. However, maybe Percy Jackson's point of view is my favourite, with all the sass and sarcasm. This book evoked so many feelings in me.
Percy is sent to the Roman Camp with barely any memories of his past after an eight-month nap. Initially, he is met with suspicion and distrust except from Hazel Levesque and Frank Zhang. Frank gets assigned by his father, Mars, the Roman figure of Ares, to go to a quest to free Death, Thanatos and take Percy Jackson and another person with him. He obviously chooses Hazel, the girl he has a crush on. Together they face a lot of troubles, open up to each other and become best friends. They succeed, of course, and get back to camp in time of a battle. They win and celebrate. Percy gets his memories back. The story ends when the warship from Camp Half-Blood is hovering over Camp Jupiter.
I loved Frank and all his usual clumsiness and only-in-the-face-of-danger sarcasm.
I loved Hazel and her support and faith in her friends.
I liked the Amazons and their queen.
Tyson and Ella are kind of cute!
One of the best thing about Rick Riordan's books is the diversity of his characters. Another thing is, bullies always get all embarrassed after realising that the person they made fun of is actually a hero or heroine.
