      I thought that this was a little too 'little-kiddie' for me. I know it's a children's series, but I just thought that this was too childish to fit into the series. I liked all of the extras though, it really filled the gaps between some of the books.
    • 5/5
      I picked up this book when Cat and I went to the library on Sunday, I was looking for another Rick Riordan book but with the summer reading club going on kids book pickings are slim.

      I really enjoyed the short story style adventures, a great way to do the Percy Jackson stories.
    • 3/5
      My reactions to this book are...mixed (hence the average rating). First, the short stories. All three of them were excellent, expanding the story universe and giving more insight into the characters and their motivations. They laid the groundwork for some things that come up later in the series (and in the follow-up series) without bogging down the main narrative. The short stories were the reason I picked up this book in the first place.

      Second, the interviews with the various campers and the other Camp Half Blood related stuff. I found these mildly entertaining, but not much beyond that. They do give some insight/information into the characters and how the camp works, but in general they feel pretty light.

      Third, the puzzles and games. Again, mildly interesting, but also rather simplistic. This is completely understandable, given the target audience for the book, but I wouldn't have been fussed had they been left out entirely. I'm not a huge fan of puzzles in books anyway, since they can create issues if you lend/borrow the book.

      Finally, the character depictions...no. Just no. They don't match up with my mental pictures at all. Too cartoony for my tastes, with exaggerated proportions and garish colours. And there's just something off about the eyes in nearly every picture.
    • 3/5
      Cute and quick.
    • 4/5
      This is a fun add-on to the series, with some fun activities and such, though really not a necessary one. You don't really gain much here; it's really just some fun activities and little extra stories and such, but none that are really profound or important to the series. It's probably best borrowed from the library or something, even if the main books themselves are on your keeper shelf.

    • 4/5
      Background on some of the gods, information about some of the characters and three short stories that add some dimension to Percy as a character and creates links between him and his fellow half-bloods. Interesting, full of humour like the series and while not important to the plot, important to knowing more about the characters. Useful refresher to the series.
    • 4/5
      The last story about Hades sword was a perfect blend of action, suspense, and humor. A perfect bridge into the Last Olympian. Activities at the back will make a good companion for a program.
    • 4/5
      Awesome little collection of random vignettes. It was nice seeing a story centered on Clarice.
    • 4/5
      I wish Riordan would do another of these...after all, it would be nice to see the further adventures of Percy, Annabeth, and company as they go on into the college years. That all said, this is a nice little tale of short stories set in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians universe. While they are obviously written for adolescents and teens, they have a resonance that adults ought to enjoy, and are deeper than you'd think. The Stolen Charriot helps show that perhaps there isn't that big a line between enemies and friends and fear and bravery and it leaves the reader with a bit more hope for humanity. The bronze dragon tale is simply put epic and fun. And the Sword of Hades is also epic and tells us to let go of our ghosts and be at peace. A great read!
    • 3/5
      This book is a continuation of the Percy Jackson saga and gives the reader a few short stories relating adventures of Percy before the final installment to come.It was fun to see old friends and see the three children of the major gods - Zeus' daughter Thalia, Hades' son, Nick, and Poseidon's son Percy working together to prepare for the final battle against the Titans. The interviews of some of the characters made them appear in more realistically human rather than demigods.I'm ready now for the Last of the Olympians!
    • 4/5
      I'm normally not one for guides like this, however I do believe that this was a useful and entertaining addition to the Percy Jackson series. It contained a little bit of background for Beckendorf and Silena, as well as some information on Persephone that is touched upon in the final book in the series. So, while it isn't necessary to read this little guide, I do recommend it, as the subject matter does in fact come up later on. Plus, the interviews were just plain fun! I love the Stoll brothers.
    • 3/5
      The Demigod Files was a short, filler book that was released just prior to the release of the fifth and final book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series to whet everyone's appetite for more adventures with their favorite Son of Poseidon. Included in this book are three short stories of Percy's further adventures since the fourth book, (poorly written) "interviews" with some of the main characters, a map of Camp Half-Blood, and some other odds and ends. Overall a cute little interlude in the story, but nothing that actually moves the story along.
    • 4/5
      A charming book to satisfy readers of Percy Jackson in between other books of the series with three short stories and other informative details about the world of the series. Included in the book along with the short stories are interviews with a number of the main characters, snapshots about the major gods and their roles in the greater world and a number of small word games. This is the kind of book that will provide a happy few days full of more information for a child who already enjoys the story. It will also fill in useful information for someone who's slightly new to the series but due to a lot of information that's assumed in terms of plot, this would not be appropriate for someone who has not read the other books. One of the nice things about the Percy Jackson books is that they're written in a way that a younger reader in late elementary school while still being enjoyable for a high school or middle school reader who will perhaps sympathize more with the main characters.
    • 5/5
      I am reviewing the demigod files. Rick Riordan wrote this book. I chose to read this book because I have read the series, and this book contains more information about Percy Jackson's world. My favorite characters are Percy, Grover, Poseidon, Zeus, and The Minotaur. This is my review.The Main idea of the story is to give you top secret information about Camp Half-Blood. Info such as, a map of camp half-blood, annabeth's suitcase, pictures of your favorite characters, and more. They show pictures of Percy, Annabeth, Grover, Athena, Zeus, Poseidon, and Ares. Percy faces his most dangerous enemies ever.In the first paragraph, I gave my opinion on the story. I also told you the author, and my aspect of the story. In my second paragraph, I told you the main idea of the story. I also told you some of the stuff the book contains. This is one of my favorite books.
    • 4/5
      This is a good book that has two short stories about Percy's adventures. Percy is a demigod boy and is the main character in all the Lightening Thief series. In one of them, he goes into a giant ant's nest where the ants get really big to save his friend. In the other story, he has to help a friend named Clarisse get a chariot back from two unmajor gods before sundown. This book doesn't tie into the Lightening Thief series much, but it is a good read.
    • 4/5
      Thin book without alot of substance, but very cute short stories and interviews with the characters.
    • 5/5
      Wow! This neat little book contains 3 short stories starring Percy Jackson, a map of Camp Half-Blood, pictures of the main characters (with a few exceptions - where's Nico and Tyson?), plus a sneak preview of The Last Olympian. I can't wait for May! (My favorite story was the one set in the Underworld. Hi, Bob!)
    • 5/5
      Fantastic little gem for fans of the "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" series to enjoy while waiting for the next installment in the series, "The Last Olympian". Three short stories with familiar demigods and several new Greek mythology references, interviews with campers and even some color drawings and puzzles! A very quick read.
    • 4/5
      The Demigod Files is a short fun book filled with facts, puzzles, interviews with some of the lead characters, and three original Percy Jackson stories. Some of the facts and puzzles seemed to have come directly from the book's website, but the interviews and the stories were new. The interviews were OK. The stories were interesting since they highlighted characters we don't often "see" in the series, like Silena, daughter of Aphrodite, and Beckendorf, son of Hephaestus. There were many family moments too. The first story covered Clarisse and friction with her half-brothers. The last story brought in Nico and his step-mother. I think the last story was the best written and possibly pertinent for the final book in the series.In all, I think I would have preferred more stories and less facts, but I did appreciate the map of Camp Half-Blood.
    • 5/5
      It is so amazing I love Percy Jackson amazing
    • 4/5
      I really like this little tie in book because it gives me more of some of my favorite characters (Thalia, Nico, and Clarisse). While the stories dont have much of an effect on the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, they do contain events that are vital points of the Heroes of Olympus later on. Its pretty short, so maybe borrow instead of buy, but dont skip it especially if you plan to read the second series.
    • 4/5
      I only read the novellas. I didn't care for the interviews and games.

      I like all three stories. They're fun and lets you spend more time with some side characters.
      Clarisse has redeemed herself a bit.
    • 5/5
      This was a cute addition to the Percy Jackson series. I wish I'd read it prior to reading book 5, I think it would have had a bit more impact that way. I did like the little stories included though, and I loved the "interviews" with the campers.
    • 4/5
      This is a cute companion book to the Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan. It presents itself as a "wow, we're sorry you're a demigod and look at all the horrible stuff you're going to face now" guide to being a half-blood. It has a few short stories about other adventures that Percy and his friends had in between the other books that are meant to give the new demigod an idea of the kinds of adventures he can expect with this bad turn in his life. It also has a map of Camp Half-Blood, some charts telling who the gods are and what they do, puzzles and other things one needs to know to be a demigod. It was fun and entertaining.
    • 4/5
      This is mostly three fun short stories from the Percy Jackson universe. I didn't find them any better or worse than the main books; same fun style and feel. Also a few short character interviews and extras that are fun but nothing you have to have. For example, a word search. (The best part of which was the unlisted words to find - almost all the Greek letters (except lambda, upsilon, and omega) were in the puzzle too!) Worth getting from the library once; I wouldn't say it's really worth owning unless you're really into this world.
    • 4/5
      I absolutely enjoyed this!
      It was funny and sassy and so fun to go through!
      I don't think I'll ever get bored of Percy's way of storytelling
    • 5/5
      A cute addition to the Percy Jackson series.Just enough to hold me over until I can get my hands on another one of his books!
    • 3/5
      More filler than fulfilling, even though it's fun to see some of what Percy and his friends get up to in between major quests. The word-seek, etc. are just padding, and the excerpts from upcoming books are useful only if you haven't already read those. But as a library read, not bad if you know what to expect.
    • 3/5
      I love the other books by Rick Riordan but this short story anthology just didn't live up to his novels.
