Supeeer tagal pa nga lang ng sequel, fall 2011 pa  :(

The Jason&amnesia thing is still bothering me. Missing Percy is nice, tho' it does make me unlike Annabeth a bit. Maybe she's been too jumpy throughout the story? (Missing boyfriend is missing. I'll never know how she feels.) Piper seems to be a nice character; not too flashy, not too mean. I see myself in her. Leo's got my heart, tho. <3

Reminiscent of Red Pyramid. They're both using more than one POV. (Oops, spoil.) I think I'll like this better than PJO; the POVs aren't monotonous. More people = more fun.

3.5 or 4 stars out of 5 for me.

I like Leo, he's a comic relief :) As for Piper..I think i'm kinda prejudiced because I don't like her mom.lol

I haven't read Red Pyramid yet. is it good?

I've just also finished reading it yesterday. For me, Percy Jackson is waaaayyy COOLER  8) than Jason Grace but the story is okay, i guess. I like Leo and his Magic tool-kit thingie. And also Piper with her awesome charmspeaking.  :) ;) ;D

I'm not quite sure if I prefer Jason over Percy or the other way around. I think they're both cool so I guess that's okay. And  I guess everyone will have to agree with me that Leo is the best.  ;D I can't wait for the next installment.  ;D

Oh and I believe this would have to be the first story wherein I liked Hera, a bit. I used to hate her, oh wait I still do but not as much as before  ;D

I love both of them, percy jackson and the olympians and the lost hero. Each has its own charm. I love the lost hero because its such a mystery and you're left at the edge of your seat and Jason is definitely different from Percy. This book just leaves you scratching your head in a lot of parts but for me, that's what makes it all the more fun.  The Son of Neptune coming out soon!! :-bd :> :>  ;D ;) Title hint anyone?

I really love Rick Riordan's books. I already finished reading The Lost Hero last year and it's really nice. I am now waiting for the next book which is the Son of Neptune. Kinakabahan ako kasi baka hindi na si Annabeth ang gusto ni Percy katulad na lamang ni Jason. Sinabi naman sa huling parte nung book na parang may someone special si Jason dun sa camp ng mga Roman demigods. So naisip ko na pwedeng si Percy ay meron n ding iba. Sana lang hindi totoo :)

I love the Percy Jackson series, read it about 3 times already.

I love The Lost Hero as well. I think I prefer Percy over Jason, but maybe that's because we don't know /that much/ about Jason yet. I like Leo, he's funny and provides comic relief. I don't like Piper, only because throughout the whole book she seemed so desperate for Jason. Annabeth is way better than her.

The story's really cool too, with the mystery and the twist at the end.
I love that Roman mythology's present too, because Rome was a great empire imo.

Can't wait for Son of Neptune to come out! Because we'll get to hear from Percy again.  :)
