Getting more complex and interesting...
The fourth book in the series, The Battle of the Labyrinth, mixes myth with a little piece of the author’s own twists. For example the Labyrinth grows and changes on its own. Like a living thing. And the enemy want to use it to enter the Camp Half-Blood. This way they can bypass the defenses.But it is a dangerous way to go. Full of monsters and traps and ever changing pathways.Krono’s army must be stopped. And so Annabeth is given her quest. To find the center of the Labyrinth, find the builder, and stop him from helping the Titan.But things are not as they seem. Enemies are not enemies and some friends are not friends. Add Pan AND Hera to the mixture and who knows what is going to happen!

Great books!
My 8yr old and I are so hopelessly addicted to reading this series and it's been so much fun!My son has always been advanced in reading so I can't comment on how this would be for any other 8yr old but for him it's a little hard with the Greek names but he honestly has an easier time than I do. I sometimes get hung up on how to pronounce some of the Greek names. He reads as fast as I do when we read to ourselves. I only know because we try to sink up at a specific chapter before bedtime for reading aloud to him. I finding I'm having to scramble to keep up with him sometimes. I really like that the social/emotional content has been about the right level for him to process without it being to boring or overwhelming. It makes for excellent book discussions, which any other discussion of this nature is like pulling teeth with him, so this makes it easier and less personal to discuss the various characters and what's going on.

One of Bruce Willis's,best SciFi flicks
Bruce Willis isn't the only Star in the movie... But in Bruce's regime, He's awesome... (Actually, I could watch him, making a sandwich, and think H e was amazing. I have all v the Die Hard Boxsets, and digital streaming movies in my library. And I get some comfort by knowing they'll be there when I need an Action Fix, with a Bruce Willis comedic punchline, often repeated by me... " Have fun storming the castle" for an example. Interactions with Ben Affleck are funny, and we'll scripted. One amazing Man, and whether playing off another actor's abilities, or going solo. He remains solely unique in the field. God Bless You Bruce, and Your cadre of friends and colleagues. I'll be on this ride, wherever it goes... Time foe Die Hard with a Vengeance... very re-watchable, as the boxsets designed to do. Take Care, Folk's. We need a reliable Hero during these times.

Another great installment!
MY RATING SYSTEM5 stars--WOW4 stars--would read again3 stars--was good, won't read again2 stars--read it, but didn't enjoy it1 star--didn't finish, it was so awfulDo I need to read books before this one: yesCliffhanger: noSUMMARYOrientation for freshmen is in June. Mom's boyfriend, Mr Blofis, got Percy into his school. There Percy bumps into Rachel, the mortal who sees through Mist. Rachel sees the cheerleaders, who are really empousas, tells Percy to run. In the band room, he tells her the truth about Olympus, and she's relieved because of everything she's seen. 2 cheerleaders set the school on fire and Mr Blofis thinks it was Percy. Annabeth is angry because she and Percy were going to go to a movie before going to camp, and she saw him with Rachel.At camp, Percy goes to archery, sees the biggest hellhound ever. The new sword teacher, Quintus, introduces Mrs O'Leary. Quintus is helping while Mr D is away.The Council of Cloven Elders give Grover 1 more week to find Pan. Grover's got a girlfriend, a dryad, Juniper. Tyson's at camp, too. Percy tells him Nico is the son of Hades; Tyson knows that means the Titans could use him for the prophecy.Percy receives an Iris message that shows Nico burning his game cards. Someone tells Nico he can exchange a soul for a soul to bring Bianca back.Grover and Percy talk about the Labyrinth. Clarisse found Chris Rodriguez, who'd joined the Titans, mumbling about string; he's going mad from the monsters and traps there. They think Luke is going to use the Labyrinth to attack the camp. Annabeth says the Labyrinth may be where Pan is hiding. Grover, “Satyrs hate going underground. No searcher would ever try going in that place. No flowers. No sunshine. No coffee shops!” “But,” Annabeth said, “the Labyrinth can lead you almost anywhere. It reads your thoughts. It was designed to fool you, to trick you and kill you; but if you can make the Labyrinth work for you—” “It could lead you to the wild god.”Playing a camp battle, Percy and Annabeth find the entrance to the Labyrinth. That night, Percy dreams of Daedalus.EVALUATIONI love this series for making Greek myths accessible by making them current, showing humans fight the same battles no matter who or when or where.Relationships the theme of this book: Peer, romantic, family, faith. I like that Percy, Annabeth, and Rachel have some relationship issues, and, because it's all from Percy's point of view, it's not full of angst and multiple reviews of the dialog.The absolute best part is the criticism of current education policies.RECOMMENDATIONEveryone following Percy's journey. This is good stuff.FAVORITE QUOTES[offering Coke and Happy Meals to the dead] Ghost, “In my day, we used animal blood. It’s perfectly good enough. They can’t taste the difference.” Nico, “I will treat them with respect.” Ghost, “At least let me keep the toy.”[running through Alcatraz] The last thing I saw was Tyson picking up a Dippin’ Dots stand and throwing it at Kampê. Ice cream and poison exploded everywhere, all the little snakes in Kampê’s hair dotted with tutti-frutti. [little later] She was plastered in ice cream and T-shirts. One of the bear heads on her waist was now wearing a pair of crooked plastic Alcatraz sunglasses.Hephaestus: “It isn’t easy being a brilliant inventor. Always alone. Always misunderstood. Easy to turn bitter, make horrible mistakes. People are more difficult to work with than machines. Daedalus started well enough. He helped the Princess Ariadne and Theseus because he felt sorry for them. He tried to do a good deed. And everything in his life went bad because of it. Was that fair?” The god shrugged. “I don’t know if Daedalus will help you, lad, but don’t judge someone until you’ve stood at his forge and worked with his hammer, eh?”“I can’t get him to clean his room, but he’ll clean a hundred tons of horse manure out of some monster’s stables?”Sphinx, “Welcome, lucky contestants! Get ready to play…ANSWER THAT RIDDLE!” Canned applause. “Fabulous prizes! Pass the test, and you get to advance! Fail, and I get to eat you! Who will be our contestant?” Annabeth, “Ask your riddle.” “20 riddles, actually!” “What? But back in the old days—” “Oh, we’ve raised our standards! To pass, you must show proficiency in all 20. Isn’t that great?” Applause. “What…is the capital of Bulgaria?” “Sofia, but—” “Correct!” Applause. “Please be sure to mark your answer clearly on your test sheet with a number 2 pencil. Make sure you bubble each answer clearly and stay inside the circle. If you have to erase, erase completely or the machine will not be able to read your answers. Now, next question—” [Q&A] “Hold up! It’s just a bunch of dumb, random facts. Riddles are supposed to make you think.” “Think? How am I supposed to test whether you can think? That’s ridiculous!”POSSIBLE TRIGGERSSex: kissLanguage: 0 F words, 1 Lord's name in vain, 0 S wordsViolence: fights with myths, deaths

Edição linda, mas...
A edição é muito bonita, a arte da capa principalmente, mas folhas possuem qualidade muito abaixo do que era a primeira versão dos livros, de 2005-2009. Parecem facilmente rasgáveis se não tomar muito cuidado, e a impressão também deixa a desejar em algumas páginas, tendo diferenças de intensidade que podem incomodar o leitor.Já a história, com a qual sou bem familiar, é muito boa. Divertida, astuta, com ação no ponto, e a escrita do Rick Riordan é bem fluida e exelente para o público infanto-juvenil. Eu, 25 anos e fã da saga, também estou me divertindo ao reler.História: 10/10Qualidade da edição: 5/10Arte de capa: 10/10

FILM DI FANTASCIENZA
Colonna sonora a parte,ritengo che questo film di fantascienza sia stato molto sottovalutato:a mio parere é un capolavoro di effetti speciali con un cast di attori bravissimi.Nella versione originale si può apprezzare anche di più.
