I did think Percy Jackson and the Olympians was a better series out of the two largely because Percy was the sole narrator in the first series. To me, Percy as a character is very much alive and seems to jump out of the pages. The other characters didn't seem to match up when they were narrating the adventure in The Heroes of Olympus. However I did enjoy how the author tied in the new characters with the characters from the first series. That way one could get introduced to the new characters but still enjoy Percy, Annabeth, or the other characters from the first series.

I'm satisfied with the first Percy Jackson series and I find it superior over The Heroes of Olympus. I think, Heroes of Olympus is a coming-of-age fiction and the PJ series is really just intended for teens.
But really, PJ is better.
