 * The book is better than the movie **


 * Point 1: The book mentioned a lot more detailed parts.

I thought that the book is better than the movie because it mentioned more things that happened in the book that were not metioned in the movie and most of those details were very important. One of those details were when Ares and Pecry Battled in the book. This was an important detail because when Percy won the battle he made a bet that if he wins the battle Ares will have to hand over the Helm and the Bolt. Instead in the movie Ares was not mentioned at all and Percy battled Luke. Another important detail that was in the book was when Sally was left in the Underworld and Grover,Percy and Annabeth escaped. In the movie on the other hand Grover sacrificed himself for Sally,Percy and Annabeth and stayed back in the Underworld. Percy also had to find the pearls in the movie and in the book the sea nymph just gave him the pearls.

Point 2: Most of the characters were not mentioned and some of them were new.

In the book there was Nancy Bobofit the bully and in the beggining of the movie they did not show at all. Persephone was in the movie as Hades's wife but in the book they did not say a thing about Hades being married to anybody. They alo forgot to mention the fates in the movie when they were sitting by the fruit stand and the middle Fate cut the yarn and that ment someone was going to die. Another person they forgot to metion was Kronos he played a big part in the book because he was the one who set Luke up to stealing the lightning bolt and he was not in the movie. Clarisse was another girl who wasn't mentioned in the movie she was the one who was fighting with percy in capture the flag instead Annabeth fought with Percy and she was on the opposite team. Towards the end of the book when Percy came to Mount Olympus to return the bolt he met Zeus and Poseiden only. In the movie all of the gods were gathered up in a hall and Percy and Annabeth saw all of the gods. Point 3: The book had more conflicts than the movie.

One of the arousing conflicts in the book was when **
