The Blood Of Olympus

This week during Reading Workshop, I have started to read a new book. This book that I have started to read is called The Blood Of Olympus. This book is written by Rick Riordan and he is famous for writing the prequel series, the Heroes of Olympus. I like the previous book in the series, and so I longed to try to read this book because the last book was left on a cliffhanger.







This is a picture of the cover of the book, it shows a very important scene because this is when Jason strikes down the leader of the giants. At first, they were overpowering Jason and the crew but after Jason took down the leader of the giants, everything turned around and they were able to get rid of all of the giants.


I chose to read this book because I have read the previous books in the series and I have enjoyed them greatly. Also, the book seemed very inticing because the previous book ended with a cliffhanger. This book is the genre I was looking for, a combination of history in the form of mythology and adventure. So far I am 150 pages in, and I love the book, it's very detailed and it seems as if I am on the Argo 2 with the travelers.



I felt like the best part of the book so far is when Leo says, "Good bye guys". This is the best part of the story because the demigods were having trouble with the giants and were almost on the brink of dying. The death of Leo caused the demigods to turn their misery into hope and anger and as a result, they wiped out all of the giants. This is the turning point of the book because after this, the 6 demigods who are left, work together to wipe Gaea off the face of the Earth.
