All year the half-bloods have been preparing for battle against the Titans, knowing the odds of victory are grim. Kronos’s army is stronger than ever, and with every god and half-blood he recruits, the evil Titan’s power only grows.
While the Olympians struggle to contain the rampaging monster Typhon, Kronos begins his advance on New York City, where Mount Olympus stands virtually unguarded. Now it’s up to Percy Jackson and an army of young demigods to stop the Lord of Time. In this momentous final book in the New York Times best-selling Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, the long-awaited prophecy surrounding Percy’s sixteenth birthday unfolds. And as the battle for Western civilization rages on the streets of Manhattan, Percy faces a terrifying suspicion that he may be fighting against his own fate.
I don't know what all it is about these books, but I cannot get enough of them. In the last installment of Percy Jackson, the battle for the survival of Olympus has begun, and the Great Prophecy surrounding the son of Poseidon has started to come true. Great storytelling, and amazing (but clear-accessible for all ages to read and enjoy) writing.
Although not the best of the series, I was very satisfied with the ending of the story and the overall saga. Great read! This series has definitely sparked a renewed interest in Greek mythology. I guess I need to dust off my copy of The Iliad!
