Percy and his friends are gathering to fight a
big battle against Kronos. As Percy
tries to figure out more about Luke (who Kronos is inhabiting his body), he
learns about Luke’s prophecy from Luke’s mother. Percy learns about the true
hero of the prophecy and is surprised to learn that it isn’t him. As the monsters gather behind Kronos, Percy
gathers his friends and they stave off Kronos, receiving accolades from the
Greek gods.
I love the Olympian series because of the perfect blend of action
and character development. This graphic novel
stays true to the story and I enjoyed the amazing illustrations. If you have readers who like Percy Jackson,
this graphic novel series is a fantastic addition to your library.
