The Battle of the Labyrinth - is an American fantasy-adventure novel based on Greek mythology written by Rick Riordan. "Wikipedia"
Hello, my beautiful friends! Thanks for coming again! How are you living? So, Today I am going to talk about a fantasy-adventure book called The Battle of the Labyrinth!
The Battle of the Labyrinth (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book 4) |
Half-boy, half-God Percy Jackson starts off the new school year by battling a pair of ‘ Empousai ’ and blowing up his school. Again. He also runs into Rachel Elizabeth Dare, the mysterious mortal girl who can see through the mist. Percy Jackson, the prince of understatement, is as quick with his trusted sword ‘Riptide’ as he is with the droll quips and quicksilver action sequences.
The ancient Lord Kronos is slowly reforming, aided by Luke and his unearthly army. Kronos plans to invade Camp Half-Blood, raze it to the ground along with its heroes and then head off to destroy the Olympians. Although the camp members were under the impression that Camp Half-Blood was impenetrable, they soon realize that Luke intends to invade it through one of the exits of the famous underground Labyrinth.
Tunnels change, new ones pop up, traps are laid at the most unexpected places, and monsters are lurking just around the corner. Add to that the constant threat of running into Luke’s demonic army and Percy has his job cut out. The quests aren’t as intense as some of the previous novels, but the main focus is a confusing Labyrinth that has a long and twisted backstory. We get glimpses into the past the building of the Labyrinth and all the characters involved with it.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians 5 Book Paperback Boxed Set (new covers w/poster) (Percy Jackson & the Olympians) |
A lot of the story involves what Percy is lucky enough to glimpse beyond the veil, but that’s not to say the present story isn’t as exciting. Grover and Tyson, two of my favorites of the series, are missing most of the book on their own side-hunt, but when they’re there – they still bring in the fun. We get new revelations about Niko that changes the potential of the prophecy completely, so this was all an excellent lead-up book to the last of the series. There aren’t frustrating dangling ends to make it feel incomplete. But there’s plenty left to wonder about and solve that made me want to pick up the next book immediately.
