I liked the book more than I like the movie. I feel like the directors should have stuck to the book more. I noticed they put Kronos coming back to life. That never happened in the book. I also think that if they put in the Chariot Races in instead of an Obstacle course along with Tantalus, that would have made the movie even more cooler. I really like how they started the book with Thalia's Story so they viewers who haven't read the book could understand how important she is and I really enjoy how they ended the movie with Thalia coming back to life, as they did in the book. Over all, it's way better than the first movie.
