Where do I begin? When ranking a series, it’s worth mentioning that the readability of a series is largely dependent upon a captivating first book. Despite this, The Sea of Monsters has perhaps one of the best endings in the series, with Thalia being resurrected by the Golden Fleece, adding a twist to the Great Prophecy.Ĥ. This book is last on my list, however, mainly because it largely focuses on setting the stage for the books that follow-aside from the few interactions with Luke’s assembled army, there is little development in regards to the war with Kronos and the Titans. This book was also a beautiful ode to The Odyssey, and featured a host of callbacks, from the sorceress Circe to Polyphemus’s anger with being thwarted by Nobody. Granted, this book has plenty of memorable moments: Annabeth listening to the sirens, the team’s fight with Polyphemus, and-of course-Tyson’s introduction as Percy’s cyclops half-brother. Starting things off at number five is The Sea of Monsters.
