    <body><![CDATA[I did not know what to expect when I saw that Percy Jackson author Rick Riordan was releasing The Demigod Files before the fifth and final book of the series. While not essential to understanding the storyline of Percy Jackson and his mythical adventures, The Demigod Files is definitely worth the re...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/47055664">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was a good book to tide me over to The Last Olympian (I am getting super impatient waiting!). It contains short stories, character profiles, puzzles, and even an excerpt to The Last Olympian. <br/>  Now that I read the excerpt, Rachel is annoying. They're supposed to be friends!!!

It also has some character interviews and pictures as well as a cross word puzzle and word search for younger fans. <br/><br/>The short stories...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/58959826">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I am disappointed to give this book a four instead of a five.  This book came out before book 5-and I never got around to reading it.  The book included short stories about some of Percy's other adventures and some 'interviews' with other camp members. Just not as good as the Percy Jackson series.
