In this 4th installment of Rick Riordan’s Percy
Jackson series, our hero sets out on another quest. This time he joins friends
Annabeth, Grover and half-brother Tyson, as they enter the labyrinth in an
effort to stop the rise of the evil Kronos and his army.
I admit that I had a hard time getting into book 4. The thought
of our hero’s travelling through a labyrinth initially had me intrigued.
However as I listened along, I got somewhat overwhelmed by the vast difference
in each room they came across. I also had a hard time picturing the
monsters they battled on their journey.
Thankfully closer to the end of this audio book, I began to
enjoy the story more. The pace really picked up and there was quite a bit of
action. I really appreciated how the author included the God Pan to give his
readers a lesson in the importance of preserving our environment.
Although this wasn’t my favourite book in the Percy Jackson
series, I would still recommend it to fans of middle grade fantasy.
