Comment
Add a CommentI almost liked it better than the PJO first book. Very interesting read.
This book is good, but I like the Percy Jackson series better
i thought that this book was not only interesting but it taught me a lot about Greek Myths, too. The setting gave it a creepy feeling, which makes a story better, in my opinion.
Interesting read - what if the Greek gods were real - adventure story
if you think this one is good, the next two are even better. Char is a character with spunk, very likeable.
A quirky, funny book, although it starts off slow, once it picks up speed it’s quite the page-turner.
Although it might not be everyone’s cup of tea, a relatable hero and a humorous villain make this book a good choice if you’re looking for something different for your summer reading.
This was a great book in its own right. the Percy Jacksons were nothing like the Cronus Chronicals. the fact that they bolth were based on greek mythology was the only similarity. I loved the darker elements of the story and the way the author had normal kids as the heros, that was nice for a change.
An awesome read! Especially if you enjoyed the Percy Jackson series!
I got this for my 9-year-old who loved the Percy Jackson series. He rejects most of my suggestions, but he liked this one a lot - enough to want to read the whole series. Good characters, plot is a little uneven but lots of fun. Highly recommended for the Lightning Thief crowd.
This book is really good! I chose to read it because it was kind of like the Percy Jackson books. It's about a girl who has to go into the underworld. I'm telling you. This is a good read! (Even if it is a bit long)
