Red Pyramid

In the history of awful books you can't get much worse than this. The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan was a disappointment to many who enjoyed Rick Riordan's other books: The Percy Jackson series. There are several reasons for this. But what was really aggravating was the change of perspective. Every few chapters the perspective changes from one character to another. It became a nuisance to have to go back and check at the beginning of each chapter just to see which character was telling the story. This drew away from the one good part of the book: The plot. It was intriguing and carried the book for what it was worth. However, it wasn't enough. The Red Pyramid is not a book I'd recommend.
