Quick fun read, my partner has been buying me the Percy Jackson graphic novels as he finds them and it’s a nice way of revisiting the stories without rereading the books (I have too big a tbr to start re-reading!). A couple of parts were a bit confusing as I felt the illustrations didn’t really convey exactly what was going on so it wasn’t until a couple of panels later that it becomes clearer. Also, why do these 14 year olds look like they’re in their mid 30s??

Gets better as the series continues. The story and the illustrations

Easily the best book of the series even though Battle of the Labriynth has a fighting chance for that title

3/5 Tof boek, maar ik vond de illustraties erg donker en had een beetje het gevoel dat ik midden in een verhaal viel, omdat de personages ook niet werden voorgesteld. Daarbij leek Percy best op Thalia in dit deel. Toch genoot ik erg van het verhaal, is één van mijn favoriete PJ delen.

Good adaptation but I felt it was lacking the magic of it’s source material.
