TYSONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

(The scene with annabeth and where the sirens are there. It made me cry. WHY?)

#savehalfbloodkids anyway THE END ?!! ANNABETH AND PERCY ?????? EVERYTHING ?????

that was even better than the first time i read it

I loved the series so much

I enjoyed this book a bit more than the first one, but again did feel like they did spell out major things for each event in the book. But I know this is a kids book - so again enjoyed for what it was!

chaotic mess loved it though

** spoiler alert ** For a book that is aimed at a much younger audience than me, I found it really funny. The situations and characters in this book are hilariously strange and Rick Riordan’s way of merging Greek mythology with the modern world made me laugh out loud in several places. I mean C.C’s spa, Percy not realising that Tyson is a Cyclops because he doesn’t look him in his face and Monster Doughnuts.... why weren’t these books out when I was 11-12?

Amazing-er

For some reason, this book was subtly boring than the rest of the books in the series. It took me a longer time to read it.

I was totally hooked from beginning to end. This book has no boring bits. Super enjoyable read👏🏻 (I want to give Tyson a big big hug. He is such a baby🤏🏻👼🏻)

After reading this, I felt like I liked it more than the first book honestly. This book was, again, lighthearted, action-packed, and super nostalgic. I did not read this one when I was a kid but I definitely wish I would have because I think that it would have set me up to read so many more books as a child. In this one, we are introduced to Tyson and we are on a mission to save Grover on his quest to find Pan. This book is set mostly in the ocean and on cliff sides as Percy, Annabeth, and a couple others attempt to navigate the treacherous waters and the gods along the way. Definitely read this book as it is a great continuation of the first and will set you up for a long-term investment in the series.

TYSON>>>>

Im just rereading the whole series due to the disney show, Percy Jackson will always be a masterpiece to me. Uncle Ricks writing is just top tier 🤌🏻 Even if im a whole ass adult now, the books never disappoint and are as entertaining as ever.

Non-stop action No doubt this is quite an entertaining book - there's a rollercoaster of constant action and I've got a lot of time for the ancient Greek mythology. However, it is very simple and doesn't feel quite as re-read able as the Harry Potter's as an adult.

The Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan is a retelling of the Odyssey and continues the story arc begun in The Lightning Thief. This time Clarissa is sent on the official Camp Half Blood quest but Percy and his friends though have their own agenda, namely to save Grover. I'm going to let you in on a secret. My favorite character isn't Percy or any of the other Camp Half Blood heroes. Nope. My favorite character who shows up in The Sea of Monsters for the first time is Tyson, the young cyclops. Tyson brings humanity to the other side of the Gods' infidelities. Gods have children who are gods, demigods and (yes) monsters. The Gods aren't fair or just parents; they show favoritism and they ignore others. Tyson like most monsters is cast aside, growing up on the fringes of human society. He's a rare one though in that he gets a second chance, being befriended by Percy and therefore brought into favor with Poseidon. The book begins with Percy and Tyson being friends. Percy's aware that Tyson isn't quite normal but he figures it's because he's a homeless kid and just hasn't had the same support other kids have had. Later, of course, he has to rethink the friendship when he learns that Tyson is a very young cyclops and therefore a monster and a half brother. Two factors made me love Tyson from the get-go. The first is his eager, toddler approach to things. From how he acts he seems about the same age (or cyclops equivalent) as my daughter. So there's a motherly connection. My second bonding point comes from Percy's sudden realization that he's a big brother. I was only child until I was seven. My brother was born three weeks before my birthday. So that birthday just felt ruined by everyone cooing over the baby. It took a long time for me to adjust to being a sister and to finally warm to and ultimately love my sibling.

five stars for tyson and … that ending gagged me!!!

tyson is everything to me.

“Brace Yourself”

ladies, Mr. Riordan, did it again, but ngl I found it a little bit dull at some points, and sometimes I had to force myself to keep on reading, I can’t explain why that happened, but I didn’t feel like i did with the first book but anyway it was still a banger !!!

I can’t describe how much I love Percy, he’s just THAT guy, I want to put him inside a jar and shake it really hard <333 and omg Tyson, he made me cry a lot and i can’t wait to read the next one <3

passei o livro inteiro com medo do tyson morrer mas ele tá vivo amém

tulis sekarang aja deh, dari pada lupa entar kalo ditunda-tunda wkwk di awal-awal, jujur aja, boring banget bacanya. sempet kepikiran buat DNF aja deh. hampir setengah buku lebih maksa buat terus baca dan terus nahh, di setengah akhir ini, tapi kayanya pas bagian Polyme-pokoknya-monster-dajjal yang itu, baru deh keseruannya nongol penyelamatan Grover kerasa ngeri, merinding, tapi bikin ngakak. ga tau deh, Uncle Rick bener-bener kelewatan bisa nyampurin ketiga hal itu jadi satu. dan di ending, aku ngakak bagian Martha dan George mereka kopel yang soswit

9/10 akhirnya nemu kopel terbaik yang non-manusia: George dan Martha wkwk

This is one of the reasons I love reading Series Back-to-back as it just means that I can keep the storylines and characters all in my head & really feel like I’m there with them on their quests and adventures, so this felt amazing to be right back with them! Once again, we are thrown right in to the action and adventure as it was time for the next quest for Percy and his Friends!

Set Some - time after the events of The Lighting Thief, Camp Half Blood protection spells starts waning to the point of almost breaking apart completely, leaving its borders wide open and unprotected from monster attacks. Upon the impending destruction of the only haven left for demigods, Percy, Annabeth, Tyson and Clarisse embark on a desperate quest to find the Golden Fleece, the only sacred relic capable of healing Thalia’s Tree and restore its defensive powers. On a separate plane, Grover missing and possibly subject of a fatal destiny. His time running short, or maybe already too late.

This one was a fab sequel, it was lovely to see Percy and Annabeth grow as characters and I feel like they have really connected in this one after working closely together, but across all the characters arcs in this one. However, this one felt a little slower than the first but still as action packed with epic memorable moments and incredible battles against mythological figures. The ending was spectacular, hilarious, crazy, and terrible. And an absolutely mind blowing cliff-hanger that makes me excited for Book 3!
