PRAISE FOR THE BATTLE OF THE LABYRINTH*”The wit, rousing swordplay and breakneck pace will once again keep kids hooked.”―Publishers Weekly (starred review)PRAISE FOR THE LAST OLYMPIAN*”Riordan masterfully orchestrates the huge cast of characters and manages a coherent, powerful tale at once exciting, philosophical and tear-jerking. The bestselling series’s legions of fans will cheer their heroes on and rejoice in such a compelling conclusion to the saga.”―Kirkus Reviews (starred review)PRAISE FOR THE LIGHTNING THIEF“Perfectly paced, with electrifying moments chasing each other like heartbeats.”―The New York Times Book ReviewPRAISE FOR THE SEA OF MONSTERS* “In a feat worthy of his heroic subjects, Riordan crafts a sequel stronger than his compelling debut.”―Publishers Weekly (starred review)PRAISE FOR THE TITAN’S CURSE“All in all, a winner of Olympic proportions.” ―School Library Journal <div id="
My daughter and my oldest son loves Harry Potter series, and they have read the entire book series twice!However, my second son was not a big fan of Harry Potter but he was attracted to Greek mythology so he loved the Percy Jackson series. So we bought this set and he ended up reading the series twice!I highly recommend this for any children who enjoyed reading Harry Potter books or even if they were not fan of Harry Potter like my 2nd son.Please note that these are paper back books. It’s kind of misleading by the label “Hardcover Boxed Set” since only thing that’s hard is the box itself, which we ended up throwing away but the books are paperbacks.But still, this is 5 out of 5 stars and I highly recommend these books to any children!Hope this was useful… and if it was, please click on the helpful button below. Thank you!
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!!!
After finishing Harry Potter with my nine-year-old, we picked up the Percy Jackson series after reading all the reviews and suggestions. We just finished The Lightning Thief today, and I have to warn you: If you’re expecting something as good as Harry Potter, you will be highly disappointed with this book. It’s simply not as good as Harry Potter in nearly every way imaginable. The characters, pacing, and storyline have nowhere near the complexity or sophistication of Harry Potter.This book felt like a real drag, and I am trying to figure out how to tell my kid I don’t want to read the rest of the series to her, as I constantly find my mind drifting away while reading because it feels like reading (surprise surprise) children’s literature.To the author’s credit, my kid does seem to enjoy the book much more than I do. But today she told me, “Percy Jackson doesn’t hook the reader, and it felt like it took forever for anything to actually happen in the plot line besides monster attacks.”So maybe if you’re 9, this is a five-star book. If you’re a parent, be careful before committing to reading the whole series to your kid, as it may be a big fat drag. And please stop saying this series is as good as Harry Potter, because it is far far farrrrr from being on the same level.
The box set came in perfect condition, however, in the books themselves, were certain pages that didn’t print correctly. It’s only a couple of pages where you can’t really make out what the words are. Other than that, it’s amazing!
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.
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.
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.
I was excited to get this, what a let down. I homeschool my children and therefore am very picky with what they read and soak up from the real world. I expose them to classics like Mark Twain, Kipling, Dickens etc. I knew I wasn’t going to get a masterpiece of a series but as I read the first chapter to proofread if it was appropriate for my 8 and 10 year old, I noticed a few things other parents such as myself might want to know.Right away, “global warning” is dropped in a paragraph, then “magic mushrooms”. Seriously? Were going to bring this stuff up to children? And I’m sorry but even if your child is 12, they’re still a child. The author uses bad behavior in order to mae the book sound funny, but I felt its simply lack of literary talent. The overall tone is negative and cheap. The characters are nasty: a kleptomaniac girl pick-pocketing from strangers, throwing lunch on another kids lap, throwing chunks of food at a kids head, insulting teachers.The main character goes to a school for troubled kids and was abandoned by his father which you can read on the back of thr book. Are these really the values we want to teach out children today in 2021 as the world continues to decay? Im not sure whether to return this or use it later down the road as a lesson to teach the difference between classics and junk.”Disney books”, should of know….
Para los que quieran leer esta saga pero no están convencidos, esta es su señal de que deben comprarlos. ¡Leanlos!Yo tenía bases de inglés cuando los comencé, lo más básico se podría decir, tenía miedo de comprarlos por lo mismo que quizás no podría leerlos nunca pero me animé, me propuse hacer el gasto y ya habiéndolo hecho me dije que era mi oportunidad para aprender, pues ya había invertido en ellos y ahora tenía que terminarlos.Cuando leí el primero, ni entendí casi nada jajajaj pero me ayudaron bastante en mi vocabulario y reading, me la llevaba pegada al diccionario, como esta es una saga para niños, el narrador literalmente es un niño de 12 años, así que al inicio el vocabulario es bastante simple, conforme los libros pasan Percy va creciendo, entonces el vocabulario también va avanzando, pero es una estupenda forma de aprender y de avanzar con el idioma, además de eso aprender sobre mitología, que es por lo que todos nos animamos a leer la saga en primer lugar.En fin como esta saga tiene más de 10 años no es necesario que la resuma, el resumen es, SÍ vale la pena adquirirlos, igual que cualquier libro de Rick Riordan, para la edad que tengan, yo se los regalaría a algún ser querido que quiera leer o que quiera iniciar a leer sobre todo en inglés, disfrútenlos.

Lockdown saviour. Got my 11 year old into reading over the summer. Was a struggle to find something that grabbed his interest. Would read for hours at a time. Also he is now knowledgeable on Greek gods.
We ordered this as a new item. It arrived and I noticed some damage to the box even though it was shrink wrapped. Thought maybe it was just mishandled in the warehouse, as it happens… After opening the shrink wrap, I noticed some minor damage to the 1st and 2nd book. When looking at the label on the shrink wrap, I noticed it was one label placed on top of another. I managed to peel the top label off a bit, to find the label below stating “Used – Like New”, contrary to the label above stating “New”…. Be careful as you might get ripped off, thinking you’re getting a lovely new set of books, when it’s actually been used before… Have reported this to Amazon as well.
