Reading response 2: Heros of Olympus:The Lost Hero

Summary: Jason  is unaware of who he is, why he is here, or anything about his past. He wakes up on a Bus filled with peers, headed to the grand canyon,  sitting next to a girl, Piper McLean, who is supposedly his girl friend, and Leo Valdez, who is supposedly his Beat friend; Of course Jason has no memory of either of them. Once they arrive at their destination, one of Jasons class mates turns into a storm spirit and begins attacking them and their trip leader, Coach Hodge, who in an act of defense, reveals to them that he is a stayr, sent to protect them, and presumes to ward of the spirit. Jason joins in, flipping a mysterious coin that he found in his pocket up in the air watching it turn into a sword, and begins defeating the oncoming storm spirits, who later end up fleeting and taking Coach Hodge with them.

After the battle, a flying chariot arrives to rescue the trio, but one of the people in it, Annabeth, is upset when she discovers that her missing boyfriend, Percy Jackson, is not there as she expected. Annabeth, seeking Percy, was told in a vision from the goddess Hera to look there for the "guy with one shoe", but this turns out to be Jason, who had a shoe destroyed during the fight. Jason, Piper and Leo are escorted to Camp Half Blood where they learn they are demigods. Shortly after, the three are told of a prophecy entitling:

"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."

and once a prophecy has been given, a quest is soon to follow. So, the three set out on a journey to fulfill their prophecy, find out who they are, and the other members foretold in the script.



The Heros of Olympus series is the sequel to the Percy Jackson series. Its written a bit differently (third person instead of percys perspective since hes missing and nowhere to be found), but none the less still a quality Rick Riordan classic! Following completely new heros, and trying to dive into a different writing style was hard in the begining, but the series is simply amazing! Its fantastically written, and it brings back most of the classic and most beloved characters from the Percy Jackson series, (except the ones that died of course...) ANYWAYS...I loved/Love the book and this series! I'm currently still trying to finish it and cannot WAIT for the 4th book (which is coming out October 8th GWAAAAA) to be MINE!
again i REEEEEEAALLY recommend you read this one as well as the Percy Jackson series! They are so amazing and the whole idea and plot genera are simply genius! REEAAAD THEEEM! Unless of course you are an uncultured swine who hates books in which you will deeply fall in love with the characters, get emotionally and agonizingly attached to the plot, and hate complete and utter creativity and Genius all wrapped into a book series, then yeah, dont bother reading it.

but if you love all those things READ
PERCY JACKSON
AND
HEROS OF OLYMPUS!!!
