The Demigod Files by Rick Riordan
4 stars
This companion book largely serves as supplementary material, offering brief stories and character profiles rather than a substantive narrative contribution to the main series. The content often feels like a collection of deleted scenes or minor anecdotes, lacking the depth or dramatic tension found in the primary Percy Jackson novels. While it provides some additional insights into the world and its inhabitants, it doesn't significantly enhance the reader's understanding or appreciation of the core storyline. Its primary appeal is for die-hard fans seeking more of the universe, but it's largely dispensable for those focused on the main plot progression.
