Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2524 KP) rated Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters: Bk. 2 in Books

Mar 9, 2018

Percy Jackson sets out on a quest to save Grover the satyr and possibly Camp Half Blood as well. I had a few issues with the plot being episodic and a tad too much like the first one, but over all I enjoyed this second book in the series.

When I heard of this I expected something along the line of Cloverfield, The Mist. It does have a bit in common with those, but there isn't a lot of action in this or many scenes with the creatures, which was a disappointment. It's still a good film, very character driven with some good set pieces. I would have preferred a bit more focus on the Monsters though.

Savage

This is such an original idea. The novel is set in a post apocalypse of sorts, where violent acts create physical monsters that terrorise a divided city. I've never read anything like it before; it was brilliantly written, and left me wanting more from the characters (I'm just starting on the sequel, and can't wait to see what August and Kate are up to now!).

Incredible.. I've only read one book before I would have considered "dark erotica" but after just finishing Pepper Winters Monsters in the Dark trilogy, my god I want more!? The story of Tess and Q completely messed with my head... the abuse, fear, power... eventually transforming into such love, a bond so tight, not even death could separate them. Beautifully written, I loved the connection & the feeling of true belonging.

The story begins with a couple and their baby trying to survive in a post apocalyptic world. The father is left injured and in search of someone to care for his baby after he's gone. A deeply emotional story about the lengths a parent will go to to protect their children. Detailing the horrors of not only monsters but the people who are just as bad, if not worse.
