Judge Appertaining To Books The Colossus Rises (Seven Wonders #1)

As the first book in a new series with a grand name (Seven Wonders), The Colossus Rises is a medium-paced action-adventure that will hold the interest of average to advanced readers. Reluctant readers would find the all-absorbing Percy Jackson and the Olympians Boxed Set series more entertaining.While it doesn't bode well that within minutes of finishing the book I'd forgotten the name of the main character, Jack (looked it up again) and his friends were pleasant company for the most part. The

The Colossus Rises (Seven Wonders, #1), what an amazing title. That, and the fact that Rick (author of the Percy Jackon series) said it was good made me want this book to read it.Normally i love books with some myth behind them, and normally i do not see many books that include the seven wonders of the world and the city of atlantis. It has a nice plot to it, and the words used in the book were expected, but as someone has said before me, 8-12 year olds probably do not know many.Personally i was

I read an ARC of this book, so I will try to keep my review spoiler-free even as I speak about it honestly.Rating it was difficult since I did enjoy it on some level. If I could, I would probably give it two and a half stars. It had a good pace with some cliffhangers at the end of chapters, and the characters were likeable. However, I think what ended up disappointing me was how it felt more like a variation on a theme rather than an original take on old ideas. If that makes any sense.I realize

This was the first book in the Seven Wonders series and I have had it to read for awhile. My son (8 years old) and I ended up reading it together. It was a very fun and well done middle grade adventure fantasy. My 8 year old son and I enjoyed it a ton. There are, ironically, five books in the Seven Wonders series. The final book in the series, The Legend of the Rift, will release in March of 2016.Jack McKinley is an ordinary kid with a desperate problem.hes going to die any day now. Then he

Ever since I finished the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, I haven't been able to find a good alternative. There are some great middle grade series out there, don't get me wrong. But none of them had the same feel to it as PJO.Until now.This book had a lot of similar elements to PJO. The one stood out to me the most was its humour. Rick Riordan was able to infuse humour into his books even when things got tense. What's even better was that the humour did not come from one single "comic
