Can Percy survive the treacherous Sea of Monsters and restore order to Half-Blood Hill? This is the one where Camp Half Blood is under attack, and unless I get my hands on the Golden Fleece, the whole camp will be invaded by monsters. So when a game of dodgeball turned into a death match against an ugly gang of cannibal giants, I couldn't exactly ask my gym teacher for help. You mortals can't even see the monsters we have to fight all the time. It's not easy being a half-blood these days. You can't tell by looking at me that my dad is Poseidon, God of the Sea. Perfect for fans of Harry Potter and Artemis Fowl. Action-packed, funny, accessible writing for both boys and girls aged 10+. Greek mythology relocated to modern-day America. but with Annabeth missing and the goddess of the hunt held captive, things get a whole lot more serious.
It's the last Friday before the winter holidays but Percy Jackson isn't at school: he's battling the fearsome Manticore (half human, half lion), which in itself isn't ideal. So it's me and forty of my demigod friends versus untold evil. Oh, and the dreaded (and not to mention enormous) monster Typhon is also heading our way. This is the one where Kronos, Lord of the Titans, is beginning his attack on New York City, where Mount Olympus stands virtually unguarded. According to an ancient prophecy, bad things will happen when I turn sixteen - because I'm the one who gets to decide the fate of the entire world. That's how it is when you're the son of Poseidon, God of the Sea. I get a prophecy that could save or destroy the world.
Most people get presents on their sixteenth birthday. This is the on where Zeus, God of the Sky, thinks I've stolen his lightning bolt - and making Zeus angry is a very bad idea. Now I spend my time fighting with swords, battling monsters with my friends and generally trying to stay alive.
That's when things started going really wrong. Until I accidentally vaporized my maths teacher. I was just a normal kid, going to school, playing basketball, and skateboarding. I never asked to be the son of a Greek god. Percy Jackson and the Battle of the Labyrinth
