- Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2025Loved this series in middle school and finally got it years later. Follows the story of a boy who is the son of a god. He finds himself at a protected summer camp with other Demi god children who were the children of Greek gods and mortals. The series is a lot of fun and has great adventure tied in. The characters are hard not to love.
The condition of the set was pretty good too. I didn’t notice any damage or mistakes with the set or packaging. I will say that the “poster” is more of a slip of paper with an image on it. It’s is MAYBE the length of my forearm. It’s a small complaint though considering all else.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2025This set came in perfect condition, I have no complaints. Love this series!

- Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2011If you are a fan of the Percy Jackson saga or know someone that is, then this is perhaps the perfect set of books to own or give as a gift. I purchased the HARDCOVER set and the quality of each book in the set is fantastic!!
What I love about the Percy Jackson saga is how the books are written. Despite being for the 9-12 age group I find them just as interesting at 30. Greek mythology has always been interesting to me and Rick Riordan brings it to life in spectacular fashion that could easily get kids hooked on the subject. Despite being fantasy in design, the books have a nice subtle educational aspect to them; teaching you a little about Greek Mythology throughout the adventure. Perfect for kids and adults alike I think.
Without giving to much away, Percy Jackson and the Olympians is about a 12 year old boy named Percy Jackson who turns out to be a Demi-God (the son of Poseidon) who becomes aware of the hidden world of the Gods around him. Each book follows Percy as he gets older and ventures out on a variety of adventures. What is so great about these books is the style of writing Rick Riordan uses. The books have very little filler and get right to the point. This makes for constant happenings, and despite the biggest book being only 381 pages, there is more than enough action and adventure to go around.
The books themselves, in the Hardcover set, are School & Library bound. This means the books are extra tough. The binding is exceptionally strong and the pages are also fairly durable compared to some other hardcover books I own. I decided not to get the treasure chest and instead got the standard case for the books. While it lacks the WOW factor the chest might give the packaging is still very solid. It is laminated plastic that has the cover art for "The Lightning Thief" on the front. It is sturdy as does the job of keeping the books safe and organized.
OVERALL this is a great set for the Percy Jackson Fan. The books are made with quality and durability in mind and the print on the books is clear and crisp. This set would make for a perfect gift to a fan or add to a personal collection. Rick Riordan struck gold with the Percy Jackson and the Olympians books, creating a wonderful story for both kids and adults. This box set does it justice by giving each of the books the care and quality they deserve.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2025I didn't get a chance to read when I was younger(around 12-13yrs) I read it as an adult in my 20's and it was a great read during my summer. Even though it's for the younger audience, I still enjoyed it.

Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2020El pedido ha llegado antes de lo esperado con un buen servicio.
He mirado los libros y francamente me han encantado las portadas, tenía muchas ganas de tener estas portadas dado que ya tengo los libros en español con las portadas originales, pero tenía muchas ganas de tener estas portadas así que pensé en comprarlos en inglés ya últimamente he comenzado a leer en dicho idioma así que me pareció la oportunidad perfecta.
Me gusta mucho la editorial hyperion, pero solo en hardcover ya que me he comprado unos libros de The Kane's Chronicle en paperback y debo decir que no tiene la calidad que esperaba por ende decidí comprar Hyperion solo en Hardcover dado que sí es de mejor calidad, aparte debo admitir que la editorial en esta versión me tiene bastante enamorada. Para alguien que cuida mucho sus libros, como yo, realmente fue un poco decepcionante lo que pasó con el Paperback.
¿Los problemas de este pedido? El ISBN no es el mismo y por la fecha de edición del paquete puedo suponer que las portadas no corresponden al set que me han enviado por lo que deben ser sin duda las primeras portadas. Un poco decepcionante, pero a la vez no me importa mucho porque puedo sentir buena calidad en el material de la cubierta y evidentemente del libro. Así que realmente estoy satisfecha con la compra.
En cuanto a mi opinión personal con respecto a la saga, hay mucha gente que compara Percy Jackson con Harry Potter diciendo, en muchas ocasiones, que Harry Potter es mejor o incluso hay gente que dice "si te gusto uno, te gustará el otro". Esta reseña la quiero enfocar para esas personas que están inseguras sobre el tema.
Las historias de Percy Jackson y Harry Potter en un punto básico pueden ser muy similares: el niño que descubre que no pertenece al mundo humano y está destinado cumplir una profecía. Punto. ¿Tiene más similitudes? Sí, posiblemente, pero francamente creo que eso no debería ser importante para decidir si leer o no.
En lo personal me gusta mucho Percy Jackson porque tiene esa particularidad que muy pocos libros tienen hoy en día y es que en cada capítulo sucede algo diferente. Actualmente la gente suele desarrollar la trama de un capítulo en dos o tres, pero en Percy Jackson por mucho que eso suceda de igual manera sucede algo diferente en cada capítulo, aparte los títulos me parecen muy originales y muy acordes a una aventura.
El libro puede parecer infantil, pero cuando lo miras de forma más profunda puedes ver que no es una lectura de cuento de hadas. Pasan cosas, muere gente, hay problemas, Si te gusta la mitología griega, dale una oportunidad porque vas a descubrir que las personalidades y los personajes son todo lo que no esperabas como ver a Dionisio vistiendo con camisa hawaiana.
Al final del día, eres tú quien decide si el libro es bueno para ti o no, no otra persona. Yo lo recomiendo, pero no para leerlo bajo el ojo de "si te gusto este, te gustará este" o algo similar. Yo comencé a leer Percy Jackson porque vi la película varias veces, siempre me ha interesado la mitología y cuando supe que la película era basada en un libro decidí leerlo. Para bien o para mal, el libro me pareció mucho, pero mucho, mejor que la película porque la película no llega a ocupar ni un 10% de todas las aventuras vividas en el primer libro. Apenas lo central de trama, pero no tanto como para decir: "woah". Como dije, siempre me ha gustado la mitología por lo que la forma de escritura y esa nueva perspectiva que Riordan le ha dado a sus personajes, a sus dioses, me ha gustado mucho porque hace que te sientas en un ambiente cómodo y familiar pero al mismo tiempo sin perder de vista el hecho de que "hey, es un Dios, cuidado."
Otra cosa que me gusta mucho de la saga es que ningún personaje sobra. Hay libros en donde aparecen personajes que no se ven más o no se sabe más de estos, pero aquí en Percy Jackson no siento que haya personajes así porque si te los presentan en el libro 1, bien pueden volver a aparecer en el libro 4 y con rol importante o al revés, si sale en libro 3, puede volver en la secuela que sería los Héroes del Olimpo con un rol importante. Eso me ha gustado mucho.
He leído la saga muchas veces y esta es la primera vez que la leo en inglés. Una parte de mí está emocionada de leerla mientras que la otra parte no siente que sea la gran cosa porque tengo la base en español dado que lo leído infinidad de veces y jamás se hace pesado esta saga.
Si buscas algo diferente y que se salga de lo normal, esta es tu oportunidad de ver si te gusta o no Percy Jackson. Dale una oportunidad y no pasa nada si no te gusta, para gustos los colores. Yo he tenido algunas sagas que después de leer el primer libro (o incluso el penúltimo) las he dejado porque decidí que no me gustaban o ya no lo aguantaba más.

5.0 out of 5 stars Books were amazing, but kind of messed up delivery.
Okay so; I will be reviewing the books as a story and the physical look and quality of the paperbacks. Percy Jackson starts off being a "regular" twelve year old human boy, except he's not, he's a half-blood, half human, half god. We watch Percy grow up into an amazing hero, fight monsters and much more. The books are easy to read, fast paced and enjoyable.
Now, the physical copies: I loved the covers, and if you line them up in order, they connect!! A but dented but truly gorgeous, small and cute, I loved carrying them around.

5.0 out of 5 stars Box e livros maravilhosos e em perfeito estado.
O box é muito bonito e resistente, as capas duras dos livros possuem cores lindas e as páginas dos livros são de uma gramatura excelente.
A capa de papel removível que cobre o livro é de um material bom, porém, não tão resistente, o que é comum nesse estilo de capa.
A entrega da Amazon foi excelente, recebi o box em pouco mais de 24h após a compra.

Little JenTowerReviewed in Germany on January 25, 2012
5.0 out of 5 stars ... endlich mal was Neues... !!!
Die Hauptperson in dieser Buchreihe ist ein Junge, Percy Jackson, der herausfindet, dass er ein Halbblut/Halbgott und ein Sohn Poseidons ist.
Er kommt in ein "Ferien-Camp" wo er auf viele verschiedene andere Halbgötter trifft, auf Satyren, Nymphen, Zyklopen und andere mythische Wesen - und stürzt sich mit seinen neuen Freunden in aufregende Quests, um schließlich Olympia vorm Untergang zu retten.
Man bekommt viele interessante Informationen über die alten griechischen Götter, die Halbgötter (Perseus, Herkules, ...), die Quests (Goldenes Fließ, Das Labyrinth, ... ) und die "Monster".
Und wer sich dafür begeistert ist mit der Serie gut aufgehoben.
Ich hab die Box vor nicht mal einer Woche geliefert bekommen und sie innerhalb von 5 Tagen durchgelesen.
Das Englische liest sich flüssig und verständlich, und man versteht die griechische Mythology dahinter sehr gut, ohne erst das Wörterbuch zücken zu müssen.
Ich persönlich würde die Serie gar nicht mit Harry Potter vergleichen wollen.
Okay, man findet einige Parallelen, wie beispielsweise, dass es sich um einen 12Jährigen Jungen handelt, der nicht "normal" ist und sich von zu Hause weg begeben muss (Schule/Camp). Aber wenn man mal durch die Bücherläden schlendert, wird man wohl noch einige solcher Storys finden.
Doch im Gegensatz zu HP handelt es sich hier nicht um #erfundene Magie", sondern um eine tolle Geschichte mit "wahrem mythologischem" Hintergrund.
Und zu Schluss möchte ich noch loswerden, dass dieses Buch nicht nur für Kinder und Jugendliche lesenswert ist, sondern auch für Erwachsene, die sich für Fantasy, Mythologie und Harry-Potter-ähnliche-Romane begeistern.
