Right now i am reading The Throne of fire. This book is a sequel to The Red Pyramid, I very much enjoyed the first one and have just started the second one.
I chose to read this and the first book because I really enjoyed the Percy Jackson books. The characters are the same as last book, I have always liked them because they are around my age and they always tell the important things and not the unnecessary details. I read this book because the action starts on the first page and doesn't end until the last page. It's not like I can't put it down but it's nice to read when I have nothing to do. So far I like it. I've only read like 15 pages but it is good already. Not much else I can say so I will post again when I have read more.
Hi Max,
ReplyDeleteI have only read a couple of Rick Riordan's books but I do like them. I agree, there is not a ton of extra exposition - what you call the unnecessary details - and you get a sense of the milieu from the event and the description as the book moves along.
Who are your favorite characters? Have they made a reappearance, or are these books about characters who did not have a central role in the Percy Jackson books? I like books that create a world full of interesting people that can sustain a number of stories (one of the reasons that I love series books.)
I like books when the characters are my age or around my age because I feel like I can relate to the characters more. I am looking forward to here mire about the book. I saw the Percy Jackson movie and I liked, but I never read any of the book. I will consider reading them though.
