Awesome gift! November 17, 2009 Linda Burciaga (San Antonio, TX) 16 out of 20 found this review helpful
I bought this for my 10 yr olds birthday. He loved it. And I loved the price. What a bargain, compared to what you pay at the book store for just 2 hard cover books, I got all five with a great keepsake box. My son loved the secret compartment in the bottom of the box. Recieved in the time it said it would!!
Another series to read December 16, 2009 Donna Alzaga (Longview, TX) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Being a big Harry Potter fan, I was skeptical with the hype around the Percy Jackson books. I went to my local library, read the 3rd book first and decided to have a go and purchased the box set.
I was very impressed with the way Rick Riordan was able to modernize the Greek gods of mythology without making it sound cliche or corny. It is a very fast paced book, especially The Last Olympian. It is action packed, a rip roaring adventure that is highly enjoyable. Riordan always makes the last chapter an introduction to the next book that I am glad I already had all the books to read.
Apparently, another Camp Half-Blood (the summer camp for all the demi-gods) book is in the works. I am truly looking forward to another adventure with Percy, Annabeth and Grover.
BEST way to buy December 24, 2009 Michael Palladino 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If your a harry potter fan you will love this series and if your want to purchase the series this is the best and cheapest way to do it.Borders retails just one hardback edition of percy jackson for about 16 dollars and they sell this product for around 80 dollars so amazon is the way to go.
A Must Read for any fan of fantasy!!!! January 30, 2010 PhoenixAnkaa (USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I picked up this series on a recommendation from a friend and I have to say I was not disappointed in the least!!!! I would highly recomment this series to any fan of fantasy writing. And as a father of two young girls I would have no problem with them reading the stories as well! The box set comes in the "fun" treasure chest box with a hidden compartment where a small surprise awaits you. If your looking to purchase these books in hardcover this is the perfect set!!!!!!
