Percy Jackson - Rick Riordan

-


Today, I will be blogging on the bestselling series Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan. The series is related to the Greek mythology. The protagonist of this series, Percy Jackson who is the son of Poseidon ( The Greek god of the seas), goes on various missions to stop the almighty Titan Kronos , from invading New York and destroying Mount Olympus, the home of the gods. 
   
The series has five books :
  1. Percy Jackson And The Lightning Thief
  2. Percy Jackson And The Sea Of Monster 
  3. Percy Jackson And The Titan's Curse
  4. Percy Jackson And The Battle Of The Labyrinth 
  5. Percy Jackson And The Last Olympian
The reason why I personally like this series is because Riordan  maintains a clean flow through the plots and he brings in a twist in the story right when you don't expect it.😲

My favourite character in this series is Tyson , a cyclops and Percy's half brother.He first comes into picture in the Sea of Monsters and from there he is in every book except in Titan's curse. He is a very caring and sensitive cyclops although he makes the best jokes out of all the characters.😂😂

My favourite book in this series is The Last Olympian . I was glued to this book because of the suspense and action.The way Riordan has described the fight scenes are so realistic.

I would recommend this series for you because not only do you get hooked onto it , you will get a lot of knowledge on  Greek Mythology as well. Make sure you read this series.😁

    I know you are a great fan of Harry Potter book series. I would like to see a blog on the same someday. Though I would not go for a comparison between Piercy Jackson and Harry Potter, but I would like to know your thoughts on the authors Rick Riordan and JK Rowling in the way they do the narration, characterization etc..

LSE BSc Finance - Personal Statement & How To Get In!

-
Hi! I was accepted into the BSc Finance course at the London School of Economics as part of the 2024-2027 batch. I had applied for Finance in LSE, Durham, and Manchester and Accounting&Finance at Warwick and King's College London. The UCAS application for each university requires predicted grades, teacher references, and most importantly, a 4000 character(including spaces) personal statement. Although the format of the personal statement will be changing from the 2026 entry onwards, my personal statement will still be useful in helping you craft your answers to these three questions(the format from 2026):  1) Why do you want to study this course or subject?  2) How have your qualifications and studies helped you to prepare for this course or subject?  3) What else have you done to prepare outside of education, and why are these experiences useful?  When preparing my personal statement, I was often disappointed by the fact that I had no personal statements of stud...

Dear all, it is with immense ple a sure I am writing this as it is my 50th blog !! I have been able to cross the Golden Jubilee after exactly seven months and ten days and it has been an incredible journey. I was first introduced to blogging and the world of blogs on 4th May 2018, by my dear father . Making me write blogs was on his radar for a long time as he thought it would help me improve my English writing skills, my observation skills and most of all, helping me organize and structure tasks. When I  started blogging, I would make many errors and my father would diligently and lovingly correct them. But now, I am happy to say that though I make errors while writing, I manage to fix most of them by myself. If you have ever wondered at any point what happens behind the scenes to make my blog, then here you are: 1. Deciding on a topic: Unlike other bloggers, I write about varied topics and deciding a subject is very crucial. I mostly follow a structured order of to...

Case Study Series #2 - Phil Knight

In the second blog of the case study series, I am going to be writing on one of the world's most inspiring businessmen, Phil Knight . The co-founder of  Nike , Knight grew the firm (then known as Blue Ribbon Sports) from a regional business to the world's most valuable sports company. Through his exemplary man-management skills, passion for his work, never say die attitude and visionary leadership, he was able to lead Nike through tumultuous times and establish it as one of the biggest businesses on the planet.  Here are the reasons why I admire Phil Knight: 1. Man-Management Skills - Much of Nike's success can be attributed to its solid foundation during its founding days. Although it is usually said that a company's first hires are extremely important and have to be very skillful, Nike's first hires were loyal shoe enthusiasts who did not have much experience in helping run a business. However through his exceptional man-management skills,  Knight was able to in...
