Description

After saving Olympus from the evil Titan lord, Kronos, Percy and friends have rebuilt their beloved Camp Half-Blood, where the next generation of demigods must now prepare for a chilling prophecy of their own:

Seven half-bloods shall answer the call,
To storm or fire the world must fall.
An oath to keep with a final breath,
And foes bear arms to the Doors of Death.


When Jason, Piper and Leo crash land at Camp Half-Blood, they have no idea what to expect. Apparently this is the only safe place for children of the Greek Gods - despite the monsters roaming the woods and demigods practising archery with flaming arrows and explosives.

But rumours of a terrible curse - and a missing hero - are flying around camp. It seems Jason, Piper and Leo are the chosen ones to embark on a terrifying new quest, which they must complete by the winter solstice. In just four days time. Can the trio succeed on this deadly mission - and what must they sacrifice in order to survive-

Review by Catherine on 26th October, 2010
5 stars "Fantastic Fantasy Adventure, for all fans of Percy Jackson"

Another great book for all fans of Percy Jackson. The story continues with a new gang of hero's and Percy is missing… There's a new twist with the introduction of the Roman Gods. I couldn't put this book down and can't wait for the next installment.

Review by Michele on 17th October, 2010
5 stars "Another must read from Rick Riordan!"

If you've been hooked on the Percy Jackson series, you'll definitely need to read this one. It follows on from the ending of the last Percy Jackson book , as the oracle predicts a total of seven new demigods will embark on the next most dangerous quest. Three new demigods Piper, Jason and Leo find themselves in a weird, initially unbelievable race to save a god as they discover each of their true identity. Another must read from Rick Riordan, I finished this book in 3 days, can't wait for the next one!

5 stars "Cant get enough"

Im only 13 years old and Rick Riordans books have taken over my life. I cant stop reading. All his books are a must read.

 
 
Review by Lucas on 13th January, 2011
5 stars "Masterpiece"

Rick Riodan's new series brings back Percy Jackson but also adds new characters. It brings in new spice to the series, by adding Roman Gods (same as greek ones but different personalities and names). The story is amazing, funny and mind-blowing like the Percy Jackson books. Overall the book is well worth your money and is much longer than your average book with over 380 pages!

5 stars "I didnt want it to end"

Its funny leaving percey behind and starting with new faces. But as I started reading it the more I just couldnt stop again.. I read 200 pages in 1 night. Now I cant wait for the next chapter
