The Battle of the Labyrinth (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #4) by Rick Riordan

The Battle of the Labyrinth by Rick Riordan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Goodreads Synopsis:

Percy Jackson isn’t expecting freshman orientation to be any fun. But when a mysterious mortal acquaintance appears on campus, followed by demon cheerleaders, things quickly move from bad to worse.

In this latest installment of the blockbuster series, time is running out as war between the Olympians and the evil Titan lord Kronos draws near. Even the safe haven of Camp Half-Blood grows more vulnerable by the minute as Kronos’s army prepares to invade its once impenetrable borders. To stop the invasion, Percy and his demigod friends must set out on a quest through the Labyrinth–a sprawling underground world with stunning surprises at every turn. Full of humor and heart-pounding action, this latest audiobook promises to be their most thrilling adventure yet.

My Review:

Our little Percy Jackson is growing up, and with that, comes the awkward situations of relationships/friendships, jealousy, and just plain ignorance.

Obviously, we the readers, can tell there are some serious sparks going on between Percy and Annabeth, but the introduction of Rachel definitely brings with it, it's own Pandora's Box (haha, did you see what I did there). Anyways, this new situation gave the story some new dynamics, which keeps the story growing and evolving.

I am still learning more and more about mythology, and had no idea there were so many "characters" (for a lack of a better word). I enjoy how some of their back-story is provided while we learn just how they are fitting into this new technologically advanced world. Keep up the intrigue Rick, I'm looking forward to reading more from you.
