4 stars

I have read (listened to) most of the Riordan books with Greek and Roman gods, and I really have enjoyed most of them. My younger son (currently 14, but 13 for most of them) has listened with me, and he found them enjoyable. Furthermore, they touch on the mythology of the Greek and Roman gods, and the amount of knowledge gained, just in those areas, has been significant. This particular book, focused on Poseidon, is quite different from Percy Jackson and the sea of monsters, the both of them were good.

Katrina's been reading this to me and we finished last night. We're not crazy about the idea of Mother Earth being the villain, but otherwise it's much like his previous books: The scenarios are engaging, the dialogue is both realistic and fun, etc.

I'm continually impressed by how readable and fresh Riordan makes myths - originally pretty exciting tales in their own right. This series continues to capture my attention with this great cover - the cover art is almost more exciting and engaging than the story itself! Plus a great story. I can't wait for the next one!
