AWESOME BOOK BRUH

Finally the Titan war. Typhon is a terrible gigantic monster that is on it's way to attack Olympus. Percy baths and almost dissolves in the river of Styx. A lot of campers die and Annabeth is almost one of them. Near the end, Luke gives up his life to save Olympus. Terrible Tragedy for Annabeth. In the end, Rachel Elizabeth Dare becomes the oracle and gives the next big prophecy.

WHY WOULD YOU SPOIL IT FOR EVERYONE.

that is such a spoiler

i think this book is a good book for children who are 9-20 because we can understand more of what is going on.

I wouldn't read this book if you haven't read the previoous four. I don't have any specific words to describe this book. It has left me speechless. I cried at the end becuase I knew I was done with being Percy Jackson and living and getting to experience his journey with him. I knew there was a second series called The Heroes of Olympus, but it was like I had developed this connection with him. I know it sounds silly but you literally grow up with a character and read about him over and over just to find out it's done. You're done. That's the end. This book has taught me that eventually there is a goodbye, no matter how hard it is. And that's another thing I like about these books. They always teach me something. So that's another reason why I cried. He was my teacher. And a role-model. And a hero. Thank you Rick Riordan for creating the best books in the world and making sure I knew it.

Amazing book. I luved it.

This book was soo aggravating and hilarious. Clarrise was soo stupid yet soo brave when she killed the drakon! Oh my gosh It is amazing.

i read this book and it is very good.i usually try to make up stories but i just dunno how

Yea same here! But my teachers help me and i have made great stories! Yet I haven't made any of MY own books lately:)

If you like writing you should really find time to create even a short story.

Find something that inspires you and stick with it. create a character out of it a create his story. sometimes adding the stuff that sounds silly is the best stuff. just write and write then fix it and clean it all up later. that's helped me.

Good advice milkman14!

Percy Jackson 5 is The Best Percy Jackson and The Olypions book. It is for ages 7 1/2 and up. What happens is Kronos is rising and trying to destroy Mount Olympos with a montsores army. Percy has to lead 40 half bloods and hunters against Kronoses army that is 15 times biger then percys. Meanwhile percys mortal friend is writeing in achent greek and does not no how she is doing it. But percy is not strong enough to beat kronos. So he has to go into a magical river to make him invincible. Will he survive the river and beat kronos and his army od with Olypos fall and will the gods dye. I give this book 5 out of 5 stars. YOU should read it.

i agree for the stars. The book was so good my mom keeps on screaming at me to stop reading.

The last Olympian is the last book of The Olympians. In the Last Olympian, Percy battles Kronos' forces when Kronos attempts to destroy Mount Olympus and the gods be destroying their thrones. While the gods are in the west, fighting Typhon the storm giant, while he was rampaging across the United States to try to destroy Mount Olympus. There is only Percy and 40 other half-bloods left to guard Mount Olympus from Kronos' forces. If you liked the first books, then you will definitely like this one. It is intense with battle but some things can get pretty funny when Grover gets nervous he's back to snacking on furniture.
