The Last Olympian is the last book in the Percy Jackson series. It was the perfect ending to an excellent series. In this last book Percy and his friends must stop the evil Kronos from taking over New York City and Olympus. Without the help of the Gods (they are away fighting on many different fronts) and the demi-gods fighting amongst themselves, Percy must fight to not only save the day but to make everyone united. This action packed book is filled with magical creatures, monsters, mythical elements. If you haven't read the first in the series, The Lightning Thief, it is a must read. Get excited too because the book ended with a wide open ending which means that Riordan is writing another series that include the Gods and prophecies. Check out all five books in the Percy Jackson series!

These titles are clever, action-packed, and have several books in the series to keep the mystery alive. These intermediate mystery books are the first in their series and are sure to appease any mystery loving reader.
