Cronos tiene un nuevo cuerpo, aún no ha recuperado todo su poder Pero sigue siendo demasiado poderoso y Percy no logrará vencerlo, no sin ayuda, tifón ha despertado y los dioses se han lanzado a la batalla para combatirlo, Poseidón lucha en las profundidades contra los antiguos titanes del mar, tanto el mar como la tierra se ven envueltos en una gran guerra, todo el campamento mestizo marcha hacia las puertas del Empire State para impedir el paso de Cronos al Olimpo, está guerra costará demasiadas vidas y algunos sacrificios para tener una oportunidad de vencer al gran titán, fue un gran libro, un gran cierre para esta maravillosa saga, el final te demuestra que las profecias son engañosas pues siempre se cumplen Pero no de la forma que se espera, me encantó
This series can be reviewed in one word; satisfying. Everything pays off, with somethings taking 5 books to do so but when they pay off, it is immensely satisfying.
Amazinggg!! I love all PJO books!!! Rick Riordan, you are an amazing Author!
This was soo sad that this too place on percy birthday and that this war wiped out almost all of the Apollo cabin
El mejor libro de toda la saga, todo el tiempo pasaba algo y no podés dejar de leerlo
A fantastic final installment to the series that shaped my entire childhood
We're at the end and I'm not wanting to have this adventure come to an end because I've been hooked, so much so that I have more from Rick Riordan ready to read in the New Year.The turmoil and strife that has been building in the last four books come to a head finally as war descends upon Olympus and the mortal realm alike. As each book is read, I didn't think the next would be better but Percy Jackson and The Last Olympian was an incredible read and Riordan should be praised for his fantastic storytelling and world-building that has made these five books so addictive and ones that I am so glad are having a resurgence in popularity.Obviously there is a lot of action in The Last Olympian as the war is building, there is trouble everywhere and for Percy and his comrades, the stakes have never been higher for the teenagers whose lives have been increasingly more difficult as each confrontation with their enemies. From the first pages, chaos and disaster is all around and unlike so many similar tales? You know exactly how bad things are from the get-go both for the Gods who are fighting their past and for the survival of Olympus and our young demigods are aware that survival can come at a cost - perhaps it's just me but often sacrifice is forgotten or almost comes as a surprise to the heroes in books. Everything can change on the equivalent of a coin flip and everyone knows it, both the Gods and their children and it's refreshing as a reader to witness and sad as a lover of these characters to bear witness to.The Percy Jackson series is fantasy but death and disaster hitting the reader from the beginning is more real than many books I've read in genres designed for older readers.This has everything you can ever want in the final book in a series that has succeeded in bringing Ancient Greece to the States, where Riordan has given such character to the Gods that these fantastical beings feel relatable and I didn't want to say goodbye to them. You're reminded of how young some of the demigods are, and their fragility is shown by their hope that they would get through this, knowing all too well that these moments could be their last. They have simple wishes, hopes and dreams for their future; like Percy wanting to return to the ocean with his friends because it just makes him at peace. As a reader of the books who has adored each one and devoured them eagerly, it makes even the most fantastically events feel relatable, and aware of just how hard it is at any age to face loss and sacrifice. As the war tears everything apart, we see again the perfectly seamless mesh of Mythology with the Titans, the Gods of the Olympus and demigods woven into this story that Riordan is a literal genius for doing and has made him a true favourite of mine since reading both this series and Daughter of the Deep, (doesn't also help that Riordan is vocally proactive in regards to the LGBTQ+ community.)This book is incredible, I loved it so much and couldn't stop reading it and was torn between turning the page swiftly and not wanting it to end. Despite all the chaos I loved just how much focus there is on family, friendship, and loyalty - there is hope and an understanding that sacrifice and finding peace can be found on both the good and the bad sides of things.Percy Jackson and Rick Riordan should be read by many and often by those who love magic, mythology and who love to be swept away from the humdrum of life around us.These five books are incredible, and if you read them and are even a little curious about Greek Mythology? You will be caught in their snare for a long time.
What do you mean it's over? I need more Percy! You can't just take me on this incredible journey, make me fall in love with these characters, and then expect me to move on with my life. 😭The action was epic, the stakes were sky-high, and every chapter had me glued to the pages. Watching Percy grow from a confused kid who kept attracting monsters into the hero of Olympus was such a rewarding experience.And Percabeth? Every crumb was precious. Every interaction had me grinning like an idiot. After all the adventures, chaos, and near-death experiences, seeing these characters get the moments they deserved was everything.Rick Riordan really had the audacity to write an ending so good that my first thought wasn't "What a great finale," but "I WANT MORE PERCY!" 😭💙I laughed, I cheered, I stressed, and by the end I was left staring at the last page wondering how I was supposed to continue with normal life. An unforgettable ending to an unforgettable series. Me after finishing: "Excuse me, Mr. Riordan, I am not done with Percy Jackson yet." 😭✨
