Even though overall this series was not the best, the last book was a great wrap-up to the series. Everything came together in the end, people got what they deserved, and Percy finally got his feelings out. It depicts the final battle between the olympians and Kronos's army as well as the hardships they had to get through in order to make it to the last stand. I would recommend this to readers in elementary or middle school.

In the last book of this series, Percy and Camp-Half Blood prepares for the final battle against Kronos and his forces. Will Olympus preserve or raze?

I have read most of the books that Rick Riordan has wrote within the past few years and they were cool. He puts little funny things in it too. Percy is a really funny kid .

who asked me who asked me

i think this book is good news, it really reminds me of the harry potter seirese so if any of you people like the harry potter books I recomend Percy Jackson and the olympions

Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Last Olympian was... ~clears throat~... EPIC!!!! Oh my gosh, I loved this book so much, it's my all time favorite in the series. This book brought the entire series to a surprisingly satisfying close, I even was okay with the way Rachael Elizabeth Dare was given a respectable closing to her character, and her relationship with Annabeth. Overall, this book had nearly perfect flow, great plot movement, an undeniably heart wrenching climax, and a beautiful resolution... LOVED IT. x3 ~ Xeta <3

This is the final battle between Kronos and the Titans and the Demigods. Through betrayals, big fights and freezing time, this book gives the perfect amount of action!

In the last book of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Camp-HalfBlood and Percy must protect the Empire State Building or then all the Greek Gods will be doomed. But with a spy in their group and strong monsters fighting against them, Percy takes the lead and tries to save Luke. I would recommend this for ages 10+ I really liked this book because everything was super exciting and i thought that this was the book in the series. If you haven't read the other books in this series, then first read the other ones or then you won't be able to understand anything. I would recommend this people who like Greek myths.

I think that this book ties up every loose end in the Percy Jackson series. The author, Rick Riordan, really has a way with words. His books are some of the best pieces of literature that I have read.

This was my favorite of the series. It was really good. just wish they made more of that series.
