Percy is just a normal 6th grader, except for the fact that he has been kicked out of six schools, has a teacher who loves Greek mythology, a stepdad called “Smelly Gabe,” and a BFF who acts younger than twelve but has a beard. Weird, right? Things get even weirder when he is on a field trip and gets into trouble for something he didn’t do. Then he gets attacked by a teacher that he defeats with a pen-turned-sword from his mythology freak teacher, Mr. Brunner. Eventually, he gets kicked out of school and a stalker friend, a weird stepdad, a dead mom, a Minotaur, and some “tightie-whities” later, he finds himself at Camp Half Blood, a place for demi-gods. Percy gets introduced to some other demi-gods, Greek mythology, and camp toilets. He gets sent on a quest with his best friend and a daughter of Athena, where he must retrieve Zeus’ lightning bolt. He comes across a few issues along the way, but he has to keep going because Western civilization is a stake. Will he make it?

I LOVED this book! Learning about Greek mythology was really interesting. Annabeth was my favorite character because she didn’t let anyone mess with her and she was smart. Everyone should read this book. It’s fantasy, historical fiction, a little sci-fi, and romance (if you know where to look).  [trh99]

A guy named Jason wakes up on a bus and doesn’t know who he is. He has a girlfriend named Piper and his best friend is Leo. They find out that he is a demigod.  They travel to Camp Half-blood. Jason turns out to be the son of Zeus. They go on a quest to save a god named Hera. Annabeth finds out that Percy Jackson lost his memory and he is at a Roman camp.

I thought this book was packed with action. This is the next series of the Percy Jackson books. This book was good because I like learning about Greek gods.  [Finn the Human]
