#THE MARK OF ATHENA FAN ART FULL#
Have you read the book? Do you want to see our reviewer’s opinion on all the spoilery stuff? Go to her website for the FULL review! It’s a great teaching tool that Rick has always seem to be easily able to include through his storytelling, and I admire him greatly for it.Īll in all, this is an excellent addition to the Heroes of Olympus collection and I definitely encourage all children to make time to read this, whether for school reading or for fun, because it works for both! Especially in knowing that they need to work together and not separately, as they seem to be used to going about things through most of their lives. You can see they’re learning, but that they also still have a lot to learn as well. What’s cool is learning these characters as they learn more about themselves and their abilities, their strengths, and even their weaknesses. As a reader, you get the advantage of knowing each of the characters thoughts about certain situations, although sometimes that can be a little frustrating because you want them to tell the others how you feel or what you know when they don’t. I can honestly say that I kept having to remind myself who was Greek and who was Roman because they all just seemed to work together well enough that it didn’t make a difference which side they were on. What’s really great is the interactions and the POVs from each of the seven heroes on the quest. Are they for the Olympians? Or are they for Gaea? Or do they just hate demigods? The new characters/gods/goddesses that they meet are always interesting because you just don’t know exactly what side these characters are on. The challenges and adventures they go through are brilliant and exciting and fun, but you do sometimes get a chance to breathe as well, usually not for very long though before the next “situation” comes along, and there are tons of them. I literally laughed out loud quite a bit reading this, and I appreciated it. The humorous moments can be in the most inappropriate situations, but when you think about the characters, it just makes so much sense that they would pick that moment to say that specific thing or think that specific thought.
#THE MARK OF ATHENA FAN ART HOW TO#
With a lot of more mature-themed YA novels that I’ve been reading recently, there’s not a great amount of time where you get to laugh so much about what characters do or say or think, but I really admire the way Rick Riordan seems to know how to make people laugh. Also, when I think about the fact that this is for children, it definitely deserves five stars. Yes, I’m giving it five stars! I had yet to give any of the previous PJ or HoO books five stars, but I really, really enjoyed this book. So what did she think? According to this wonderful, spoiler-free review, Mark of Athena may be Rick’s best book yet!
