This one is a huge disappointment for Riordan fans. It was not adapted properly,many good parts are gone.It would be better to read the original novel first (like me).The original is so good and better for your eyes too. Don’t get me started on the illustrations.They are perfectly horrendous.All in all this book is a big downer. Don’t give this to people who are getting introduced to Riordan,it will make them runaway from his books.Being one of the best authors in this world he doesn’t deserve that.He needs to find new illustratiors for the other graphic novel adaptations.
