This book is incomparable to any of his other books. Every bit is described in such great detail, you might as well be in the story yourself. The climax and other larts, such as Finn shooting the Count, would actually make your heart start to pound. Horowitz said it was his favourite book. Im not surprised.

The Hunger Games was a great book with a great plot, but I think towards the end it turnedmore into a romance novel than a thriller. Still, great book, but could be made a little less mushy and more action packed. If Eion Colfer or Anthony Horowitz wrote this, they would focus more on storyline and intensity rather than romance.

I have alwas loved thrillers. From Horowitz to the older ones, like Edgar Allen Poe, thrillers have always encouraged me to read. I love action thrillers, but I also like a good horror or fanstasy thriller. This book took you to so many places in so little time, and also had so many plot twist I could never guess how the story would end. One of my first book of Colfer's, and I loved it.

I read this book really long ago, in 5th grade. I thought it would be some boring book about a kid in middle school. Then I started reading it and couldn't stop. The story is very moving as you find out how August progresses though the fifth grade, and fights his bullies in such a non-violent way. They really should make a movie on this book, because I am still dying to know how August's face looks like.

It was a good book, but I think Riordan is trying to strech Percy Jackson for too long. The greek gods have gotten a little boring, even if in this book they add some Roman twist. Each book will have a different plot, which somehow links to the next. But each incident is over too fast, in my opinion. Some unexpected things aren't even related to their quest. Not too good, but not bad either.
