Today, I finished Book Two of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series: “The Sea of Monsters“, written by Rick Riordan, (2006©). This is the second of five (so far) in the Greek mythology books my son has been reading and he’s asked me to read. | |
The series is intended for youth, I’d estimate 7 to 15 year olds. Having said this, I’m finding them very pleasurable reading. They are very fast reads. You can gain a great amount of knowledge about mythology, story telling, western civilization, and vocabulary by reading “children’s” books. | |
This second book is about saving a friend, meeting a relative and Cyclopes. Unfortunately, saying much more would be telling and spoil the fun of reading the book – so I won’t. I will say if you have a son (or daughter) who you would like to spend time with – reading a fast paced, child-focused, action-adventure, hero-good guy story to – this series (and this book) are excellent choices. Tantalizing… | |
