About this ebook

The first book in the bestselling sequel series from Percy Jackson and the Olympians, featuring the original hero – now in a brand-new look!

Seven Heroes. One Prophecy. Destiny Calls.

When Jason, Piper and Leo crash land at Camp Half-Blood, they have no idea what to expect. A haven for the children of the Greek Gods, like the famous Percy Jackson, they are apparently safe here – despite the monsters roaming the woods. . .

But before they can settle into their new lives as demigods, the trio are thrown into a quest – to rescue Hera, Queen of the Gods, from the clutches of a new, and terrifying, enemy.

If they fail? Demigods will turn on each other, the Giants will overrun Mount Olympus and it’ll be the end of them all. . .

So, no big deal!

Here's my experience reading the book Page 1-100 : Oh ok this is interesting Page 100-150 : Oh yeah this seems fun Page 150-200 : Oh K this seems like a good story Page 200-300 : What are we doing? Page 300-400 : YES WE ARE SO BACK Page 400-450 : stopped reading Summary : It was good at first I was stoked and reading it non-stop but after the THREE pointless interactions that take 100 PAGES I got tired of it and stopped reading.. (If you're a fan of Percy Jackson I recommend it reading though).

I really have nothing to say that is so exciting about the release of this book that made part of the description in caps. I must say, Rick Riordan is a fantastic writer and everything, blah blah blah, and his charecters are well developed...but must I say...this book is just not as good as the others he has written? I mean, it was pretty funny and everything, but I believe the Percy Jackson series was better, and I really didn't care for this one. I wouldn't suggest reading it, unless you just want some entertainment on a lonely saturday.

Although I loved the second and third books in this series, I didn't feel much for this book. This may be because Percy is so much cooler than Jason!
