Customer Reviews
Great for the Whole Family
This is an excellent book in a wonderful series. I am a librarian and I could not wait for the library copy so I preordered on Amazon. We had to put our names in a hat to pick who read it first that is how much our family loves the series. My children are 11 and 16 and they both read it in a few days.

It is exciting and funny. All the favorite characters are back and a few new ones. We can't wait for the next one!

Riordan hits another one out of the ampitheater!
My three kids were slobbering over the Amazon package when it arrived and couldn't wait to tell dad that THE book had finally arrived. We've been in count-down mode since we finished book 3. Each night as we read, my husband would come to the end of a chapter and everyone would BEG for him to read just another chapter. I have three daughters (7,9 and 11), but this series would please boys equally well. I have thouroughly enjoyed the stories myself. What a wonderful vehicle for kids to access the ancient Greek myths. This story addresses Daedalus and the Labyrinth. HIGHLY recommend. Now, we have a new count-down waiting for Mr. Riordan's imagination to transport us to New York City and the gods.

Battle of the Labyrinth
This is a very good book and i only reccomend it if you have read the first 3 books.
