The Mark Of Athena
I have continued to read the amazing and suspenseful book known as The Mark Of Athena. So far the book has been mind blowing, it had started off at a low point, kind of boring to read, but now, the book has reached another level of suspense. I left off at when Annabeth had just arrived at Camp Jupiter but there has been trouble brewing in the midst of the camp. Something took over Leo's body and made him fire at the Camp, as a result, Percy and 6 other demigods were forced to flee with angry Romans on their tail.
I think the book so far had some good points and some bad points, as I have said earlier, the book started off being really boring and I tried to read the book but I had to force myself to do it, I didn't want to read the book at my own will. The best thing about my book is that it teaches me about Greek and Roman mythology in a fictitious way, without having to read a non-fiction book. It also helps me learn gods to apply to school knowledge in the mythology unit. The book also adds a twist and excitement with cliffhangers at the end of every chapter, to make it even better, the book adds different point of views every chapter.
The most important line from all of the chapters I have read so far is "Seven half-bloods must answer to the call. To storm or fire the world must fall... An oath to keep with a final breath... And foes bear arms at the Doors of Death."(Riordan 24). This is the most important line the book so far because it states the prophecy of what is supposed to happen throughout this book/series, it keeps readers at a cliffhanger and makes them want to understand the prophecy and read more. You learn about the prophecy and what it means towards the end, so if you are reading this book, you want to stick to the end of it. Below is a picture of the cover, it is very important because you can see that two people are fighting, and if you have read recent books in the series, you know that those people are Jason and Percy, Roman and Greek demigod leaders.
