@Mitchell Mosley they do have similarities but to be fair the chosen one is a huge trope and Percy Jackson has its own world and charms. Personally I like the sarcasm and the first person prospective and the idea of makeing greek mythology a real thing. Harry potter is a series entirely made up without anything to really go off on so the book series (or the first part of it) is mainly set for world building, wonder and imagination while Percy jackson gets into a journey with action. They both have their perks and the things that make them great so it's not fair to call one a rip off of the other.
The amount of students who listen to this because they don’t like to read worries me. Mainly because this was one of the series that got me into reading as a child 😂
@@ryliethompson I like to listen because I can sit still long enough to get into it and books are expensive plus I can do my other work at the same time
I’m glad y’all are listening to the book but reading is also really important 😂 I just listen because I drive a lot and it gives me something else to do while driving
I bet if Percy was the age at the end of all three series, he could easily beat up Gabe without Riptide. And I bet it would be easy. I would do the same if some sicko hit my mother.
Thank you soooooooooo much for reading this book out loud, i had to read it for school and the voices you do help me remember whos who. again thank you!

I didn't like the movie but the book is amazing I really really wish that they would have followed the book I think the book is way better then the movie
I read harry potter and finished the series then I was trying to find a good book to read and found percy jackson, maybe it isn't quite as good but it's fun,I read Percy Jackson first and then my brother wanted to hear it so we listened to this video and it's so cool and Hamish did such a good job thanks for it Hamish.: )
Percy: I have to accomplish this part of the quest alone. Annabeth: No you can't, Seaweed Brain! There must be another way. Grover: (sighs) Annabeth, do you want to be struck down along with Percy in case his uncle doesn't believe him? Annabeth: But... Percy: Listen, I am the one being accused. Not you, not Grover, me. (he calms down) I don't want to go alone, as much as you do, but this is my quest, and my chance to prove my innocence. (he turns to Annabeth) Annabeth, I don't call you "Wise Girl" for no reason, considering how much of a know-it-all you are, and how much you look down upon other children of the big three. Annabeth: (grunts) Percy: However, you have been quiet since I fought my jerk cousin. But, if you have anything to say, please say it now. Annabeth: (angry) Yeah, I have something to say to you, Seaweed Brain. (calms down) I'm sorry. Percy: (surprised) What? Annabeth: I'm sorry for all the horrible things I said about you. After getting to know you during our quest, I realized you aren't as stupid and irrational as I thought. Beating Ares takes some skill to accomplish. I couldn't even see Thalia accomplish that. Percy: (smiles) I guess everything you need to know doesn't always come from a book. Annabeth: (laughs) Hey! If you see Smelly Gabe, kick his ass. Percy: Will do! (he turns to Grover) Grover, you've not only proven yourself to be worthy of finding Pan, but being the best friend anyone can have. Grover: (shocked) You really think that? Percy: Yes. Because you helped me whenever I needed it, especially after giving me your tin can during the fight with Ares. Grover: (shrugs) Well, it's the least I could do. Percy: Whatever happens to me, tell the council how you are a good satyr. Grover: Will do. Taxi Driver: Come on! I don't have all day. Grover: See you, buddy! (he and Percy bump their elbows) Percy: (he hugs Annabeth, showing how far they've come in their friendship.) Annabeth: Farewell, Seaweed Brain. (they wave goodbye as they hop in the taxi cab) Taxi Driver: (he steps on the pedal, and drives away.)
A huge book with a wizard on the front? Harry Potter perhaps. I wonder if Harry Potter and Percy Jackson share a universe, and all wizards and witches are descended from Hecate. Which would make the term "pure blood" complete horse shit. Not like it wasn't dumb enough. Ron even said himself that no wizard isn't half-blood or less in the second book.
