Percy Jackson and the Olympians Paperback Boxed Set Books 13 Rick Riordan Books
My son couldn't put them down. He is 9 years old and although he's a good reader, there have been only a few book series that have held his interest. He is an avid Harry Potter reader. I bought the entire set based on reviews and reading more information about the Percy Jackson series to see if this would hold interest. I took a chance on the whole series instead of just getting the first book. I am glad to say that he read them all in three weeks, even re-reading a couple of the books because he figured it his favorite ones - (the first and last books). He read before school, after school, even opting out of video games to read. So happy to have found another write he loves.Tags : Amazon.com: Percy Jackson and the Olympians Paperback Boxed Set (Books 1-3) (9781423113492): Rick Riordan: Books,Rick Riordan,Percy Jackson and the Olympians Paperback Boxed Set (Books 1-3),Hyperion Book CH,1423113497,Legends, Myths, & Fables - Greek & Roman,Social Issues - General,Action & Adventure - General,Camps,Children's BooksAges 9-12 Fiction,Children: Grades 4-6,Fantasy,Fantasy & Magic,Fiction,Fiction dealing with social issues,Juvenile Fiction,Juvenile Fiction Action & Adventure General,Juvenile Fiction General,Mythology, Greek
Percy Jackson and the Olympians Paperback Boxed Set Books 13 Rick Riordan Books Reviews
I discovered Mr. Riordan because I was bored. Great start for a review... it gets better. I absolutely had to find something new to read. I saw a beautiful cover and a good-sized book on the bestseller rack at a grocery store I shop at, and it looked to be... unusual. I read the book flaps and was hooked. This was the start. After Magnus Chase, I ordered all I could find from Author Riordan and was rewarded with funny scenes, off-beat silly humor and a kind of innocence just shy of jaded maturity - I learned a lot of mythology. I was refreshed to read such unending novelty. I got a glimpse of mischief and mayhem. The characters are believable and three-dimensional, set on a stage with live props done by .. oh, somebody crazy, maybe Vincent. I give Percy Jackson two thumbs up just for being so damned likable.
I had a couple of friends tell me to read this series a few years ago since they know that I am a fan of mythology, but I kept putting it off. Last year, I ran into someone on campus that was reading them and asked him if they were any good. He told me that they were great and that I should really give them a chance. I finally gave in and downloaded the epubs. I was instantly hooked. It took me about two weeks to read all of them.
I regret not reading these books sooner. The story is really action packed and hilarious. It was fun to watch the characters go on their adventures and evolve as individuals. I really liked the modern twist to each of the gods. Despite the fact that this book is supposed to be for kids, it's a great series for people of all ages. I got myself this box set as soon as I had a few bucks. I look forward to reading Riordan's HoO series and the Kane Chronicles.
I originally wanted to get the hardcover box set with the first edition covers, but it was too expensive. I decided to get the paperback edition with John Rocco's new art on it instead. These covers are amazing. They make me want to keep reading the books over and over again. I highly recommend these books to anyone and everyone.
I wish you could give different rating for the stories themselves and the quality of the books. I love Rick Riordan and I love all his different series. The stories themselves are absolutely 5 stars. However, the Box Set itself is arrived in TERRIBLE condition. All 4 corners bent it, tear in the back cover, scratches/dents everywhere. If you're a collector or something I wouldn't purchase this box set. Thankfully, I'm not I just wanted to have an actual hard copy of the books. I love Riordan's demigod worlds too much to not give his books 5-stars. But the actual quality of the items I received deserve 1-star, and that's being generous.
This book series is excellent, well written, and storyline flows very well. The author uses humor throughout the books that really adds to the quality of the writing and makes the stories even more enjoyable. This is by far my favorite book series. It's probably the only series of books I could read over and over (I like to have new adventures with new stories, rather than the same ones).
If you like greek mythology and adventure books, you will likely love these, and I encourage you to take a chance and read the first one. You'll fall in love. By the end of the series, you'll be so attached to the characters, you'll want there to be more stories about them (check out Heroes of Olympus, because there are). It really doesn't matter what age you are, if you like adventure and greek mythology, you'll enjoy these books.
Five stars for the book series itself, and 2.5 stars for the paper back set. I'm extremely careful with my books, and the first book had the front cover get bent into a crease the first day of reading it. Being a perfectionist, I was not happy how easily these books get damaged. I can't imagine how bad they might bent up if a kid handled the book roughly. The artwork is pretty, the books should just be more durable.
The books are also so snuggly packed into the display box, that I worry I'll bend the pages or they'll be damaged trying to slide them back in. I highly recommend spending the extra money and getting the hardcover version instead.
Overall excellent, just get the hardcovers or buy more durable papercover of each book.
My 12 year old daughter is literally carrying a book with her from this set everywhere she goes and is actually reading the entire book. I guess I should explain a little that my daughter has ADD and really dislikes reading. I have tried to get her interest with other books with no success. She would read a chapter or two of other books and then lay them to the side. This series she is excited about and tells me all about what she is reading. What really got her interested is that the main character has ADD as well. The storyline has action and excitement for her and she loves the mythology aspect of the books. She is on book three and wants more of these. I'm just so excited for her!!!
