  Tras años de espera, al fin lo leí.
  
  No sé realmente si mi opinión se basa en todas las memorias que tengo con mis libros de Percy Jackson o en alguna razón más, pero bueno, ¿qué puedo decir? Maduré con ellos, y siempre les estaré agradecido por acompañarme en el viaje.
  
  Gracias por tanto, Rick Riordan.

  Me encanta esta novela gráfica porque puedo recordar la historia de Percy de una forma rápida y divertido.
  Me gustó mucho ver el pequeño crecimiento en la imagen de Annabeth y de Percy.
  Mi imagen favorita? Thalia sin lugar a dudas
  Espero tener pronto la novela gráfica del tercer libro.

  I already love the Percy Jackson series so much. It's on the young side of Young Adult, to be sure. But it is just so damn fun I can't help but love it.
  
  Sea of Monsters was a more accurate representation of the second book. The first one left out some fairly key scenes and characters. This one was spot on, if my memory serves me correctly... which it probably doesn't but whatever.
  
  I loved it. That's what matters.
  
  I am not wowed by the artwork by any means but it isn't the worst I have ever seen either. The characters are all drawn the way they are described and the monsters are all pretty damn monstrous.
  
  I think what I am enjoying most about the graphic novel version of this series is that they focus on the darker elements of the series. I know I said that in my review for the first one, but its important. I think a lot of people don't like that about this series but for me? It's what I like the most.
  
  I like the Dark Side.
  
  You're totally shocked right?
  
  Anyway, if you like comics and you enjoyed the Percy Jackson books pick these up. They're super quick and fun and entertaining.
  
  Come to the dark side.

  While I liked the first graphic novel, I enjoyed this one more. It did skip over some parts however, the flow of the story was a lot smoother. I loved that there were little details in the illustrations that added more of the story. These have been so fun to read and I can't wait to continue!

  Fun series!
  
  I love the graphic novel series almost as much as I love the original novel series! Plus the artwork is amazing! 5 stars all the way!

  Even though I have read this series before, after reading and absolutely loving the first book in graphic novel form, I knew I needed to read them all over again in the same way.
  
  It is amazing how much I had forgotten that the graphic novels helped me to remember. Most of all though, I am so happy that the sarcastic humor of Percy and his friends, still holds strong in these. It is one thing I truly did not forget about loving when it came to this series and it's spin off.
  
  Once again the pages were filled not only with Riordan's amazing wit and writing but beautifully done illustrations that were hard to tear my eyes from. I love the artist's rendition of all the characters, in both physical appearance and being able to capture their personality in said appearance unto the pages.
  
  Wonderfully done!

  This was another great one!
  
  Percy needs to deal with Tantalus a new director at his camp and well a new quest awaits to retrieve the golden fleece to prevent the thalia tree from dying and a chariot race and then a quest and then fighting Scylla and Charbydis and the myth that they bring and travelling with Annabeth and Tyson (his cyclops brother) and encountering even Hermes and going against Luke and maybe saving a friend from a giant?
  
  Its an epic volume with so much twists and turns and sometimes feels uneven not adapting the full book but regardless manages to give an action story with Percy trying to save his friends and complete a quest and I kinda like the inclusion of Clarisse in this story though it could have used a little more battle with Luke and not rushed to an ending though the twist was nice in the end. Its still a solid read and makes for a great cliffhanger as we head towards future books in the series!

  Đọc dĩ nhiên là không đã bằng bản truyện chữ rồi, vì graphic novel thì chỉ thể hiện được những diễn biến chính của câu chuyện thôi. Cơ mà vì cốt truyện của bác Rick Riordan quá lôi cuốn luôn rồi ấy, vốn dĩ đã hay lắm rồi ấy, nên mình vẫn cực kỳ thích bản graphic novel này. Hình vẽ nhìn cũng toát lên được thần thái thực sự của các nhân vật, theo như miêu tả của bác Rick trong bản truyện chữ. Mình đọc hết cuốn này chỉ trong vòng một buổi chiều :))) Dạo này ghiền tìm hiểu thần thoại Hy Lạp và các tác phẩm liên quan đến thần thoại Hy Lạp quá :D Chả lẽ mở lại 2 bộ phim "Percy Jackson" rồi nằm coi ta ^^ Thích quá đi mất!!!! :D

  While a lot of the substance and background info is missing, all the fun is still there!! And I freaking love the artwork!

  Ich mag Percy Jackson ja sehr, aber als Roman macht er für mich einfach mehr her. Den Comic mochte ich, aber es lässt mich nicht so begeistert zurück wie die Romane. Die Comics sind was Nettes für zwischendurch, zB für die Mittagspause.

  The illustrators did such a great job! This graphic novel is my favorite of the series. I had so much fun reading this. I flew through it so quickly. After reading this, I think I'll be picking up graphic novels more often.

  I enjoyed this graphic novel much more than the first one. It stuck to the book much more.

  Het artwork in deze vind ik ook weer helemaal geweldig! Het verhaal spreekt me wat minder aan, maar het is dan weer leuker omdat ik op deze manier buddyread met Rowie terwijl zij het 'gewone' boek leest :) Maar ik mis de klik met dit verhaal een beetje.

  this is an okay book but a waste of time if you ask me their was some moments that I did not see when I watched the movie. but their is not the felling of what is this what is that from the first one. it seems like a repeat of the first book but with more things. it not like the harry potter sires were their all was something new and mysterious. that is all I have to say without spoilers because no one spoilers.

  More of a supplement to the series. It would be easier to understand after reading the book. Still interesting to see how it would pan out artistically.

  THE SEAS OF MONSTERS IS A REALLY GOOD BOOK WHICH ALSO HAS SOME INTERESTING FACTS RELATED TO THE WORLD.IN THIS BOOK,PERCY AND ANNABETH GO TO SAVE THEIR FRIEND GROVER WHO IS CAPTURED BY A CYCLOPS IN THE SEA OF MONSTERS.THEY FIGHT MONSTERS,KILL THEM AND SAVE GROVER.THE BEST PART IS THE CLIMAX WHERE PERCY AND ANNABETH REACH THE ISLAND WHERE GROVER HAS BEEN KEPT AND SAVE HIM.THAT PART IS A LITTLE FUNNY TOO.

  This was strides better than the first one in my opinion. The art was way more consistent, and they hit every important plot point. Compared to the novel, it definitely lacks that humor that the novels have, but I didn't notice nearly as much as I did in the first one.

  Лято! Някои си почиват на морето. Други пък си почиват с „Морето на чудовищата – романът в комикс“! Рисуваната адаптация по втория роман от знаменитата поредица „Пърси Джаксън и боговете на Олимп“ на Рик Риърдън вече акостира в книжарниците, благодарение на „Егмонт България“. Ако и вие сте фенове на Деветото изкуство (или пък просто и вие като Пърси не си падате особено по четенето на дебели книги), то ето ви прекрасен начин да се потопите в митологичната вселена на Чичо Рик, която се превърна в истинско явление и мания за хиляди млади читатели. Вълнуващото продължението на „Похитителят на мълнии“ изглежда много по-добре от своя предшественик. Прочетете ревюто на "Книжни Криле":

  Second verse, same as the first. Definitely a fun bit of nostalgia but it rushes through the plot points at breakneck speed so I wouldn't recommend it unless you have read the novel first. Still, it's a nice companion to the series and it's interesting to see the story in a different format [even though I'm still not the biggest fan of the art style]
