Book Report Of Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Last Olympian

Percy Jackson, his friends, and the Olympians fight in a war resembling the original war between the Greek gods and the Titans and in a final battle with the powerful Titan, Kronos. Many fight for Olympus, including the Hunters of Artemis, dryads, satyrs, naiads, and tree nymphs, Chiron's centaur cousins the Party Ponies, and the hellhound Mrs. O" Leary. They must defend Mt. Olympus from Kronos' huge army consisting of rogue half-bloods, dracaenae, Hyperboreans, Laestrygonians, drakon, Hyperion,telekhines, Typhon, and hellhounds.

It is revealed that Luke had bathed in the River Styx, thus becoming nearly invincible (much like Achilles). Seeking to defeat Kronos, Percy does the same, with some encouragement from Nico. Rachel, a mortal who can see through the Mist, tells Percy that he is not the hero of the Great Prophecy, and that it will influence his choice when he turns 16.

Percy and his friends fight in a last stand to protect Mount OLympus from the oncoming invasion of Kronos. With many surprises and challenges, Kronos drives the protectors of Olympus to the doors of the Empire State Building. He continues to Mt. Olympus, destroying many of the structures there.

Percy and Luke (who is possessed by Kronos) battle at the top of Mt. Olympus (located above the Empire State Building) in the throne room. Luke is shocked back into his normal self when Annabeth reminds him of his promise that he would never harm her. The Great Prophecy hinges on Percy's decision to give Lukethe dagger rather than kill him. Luke commits suicide by stabbing himself in his mortal pointwhen Kronos takes over his body, becoming the hero of the prophecy and ending the war on Percy's 16th birthday.

The gods grant Percy, Grover, Annabeth, and Tyson rewards at the conclusion of their quest. Percy, refusing godhood for himself, forces the gods to swear on the River Styx that they will recognize all of their children by the time they turn 13. He also requires cabins for Hades and the minor gods to be built at Camp Half-Blood, and that they set Calypso free of her curse.
