Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Ultimate Guide (Percy Jackson & the Olympians)

Since buying this book, my two boys (age 9 and 11) are devouring the entire publication list of Rick Riordan, including companion books such as this. They are simultaneously reading his books on Greek, Norse and Egyptian mythology. It's all they want to read now but I don't mind as the books are both entertaining and very educational. These boys really know mythology and a fair bit about Greek history and civilization. They got interested in these books after reading a children's version of Homer's Iliad and the Odyssey.

This guidebook comes in a journal-sized book with a magnetic flap in journal-style design. The cover and cover art are a beautiful blue (much richer color than the product page shows) with a hologram type image that shows different characters at different angles (See my pictures). The book itself is well put together with thick, beautiful pages and has sharp print and vivid images. There are a set of character cards in the front cover, many illustrated pages and sections, full bleed maps, and other various information. This is a great gift for anyone who is a fan of the series. Highly recommended.

My daughter (age 8) is thrilled with this book. Percy Jackson has gotten her into the Olympians, and this is a perfect reference guide that links the Riordan books to the ancient mythology it references. It comes with a set of baseball-like cards that she loves as a quick reference. The price and the value make it well worth it for Percy Jackson readers, and it doesn’t have spoilers for later books, so far as we can tell. (She’s on book 4.). My nephew (age 10) is reading the first book in the series, and I’m going to gift him a copy as well. He has to write a book report about it, and it’s an excellent consolidation of information as well as its providing background information that a student might not already have.

Un libro muy lindo. Fue de segunda pero llegó en excelentes condiciones.

I bought this for my daughter as a Christmas gift. She loves the series and therefore, was thrilled to receive this book. It was one she had been wanting for a while. It arrived quickly enough, was in exellent condition, and seems to have satisfied the recipient to the point where I am happy with this purchase. I would give a 5 star rating if the price was better. Not too much for a good, hard cover book, but still a lot for a smaller book.

Perfect

The illustration cards came in slightly bent but everything else was fine and it's the perfect gift for a nostalgic Percy Jackson Fan.

The quality and beauty of this book is top tier. My daughter loves it.
