The Lost Hero


Hey there everybody! How many of you have ever heard of Rick Riordan? If you ever read the Percy Jackson books, The 1st 39 Clues, or The Red Pyramid, you probably do. Now he is back with a whole new series called The Heroes Of Olympus. This is the second series to the Percy Jackson series. If you read The Last Olympian(the last book in the Percy Jackson series) there was a prophecy about seven heroes who would either save or destroy the world. The 1st Heroes of Olympus book, The Lost Hero(pictured left), is about a boy named Jason who wakes up on a bus with no memory whatsoever. Apparently he has a best friend named Leo Valdez and a girlfriend named Piper McLean. They arrive at the Grand Canyon and, there, they face their 1st threat. They survive, thanks to Jason, and travel to Camp Half-Blood. There all three of them find out who there Olympian parent is and that the goddess Hera has been captured by a force more powerful than even the Titans! Jason, Leo, and Piper then have to save Hera before the winter solstice. With the help of Festus(the bronze dragon on the cover) they travel all over the country looking for Hera. Along the way they encounter new threats, new allies, and Jason find the sister he never knew he had. But behind this quest is a dangerous secret, one that might destroy Camp Half-Blood forever. I won't tell you the secret, but I will tell you this: The Greek gods aren't the only gods in town.
