The Last Olympian by Rick Riordan

I finished the 5th book of the Percy Jackson series last week. It was a good read and a good end to the series. (I think it's over anyways?) Of course it was a juvenile read, as it's written for juveniles. But still Riordan is a good, entertaining writer.

In this book Percy is 15(going on 16) and faces Kronos(the Titan of time), with his friends and the Olympians, to protect Olympus(which is in NYC atop the Empire State Building) from Kronos and all his minions who seek to destroy the power seats of the gods. It's chock full of action, defeats, victories, and mysteries. It's just plain exciting. Of course it's cheesy, it's written for kids. But despite that, it's still good.

If you're looking for a good series that's easy to read and full of action, I strongly suggest you pick up Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
