Percy Jackson fans can rest easy: this first book in Riordan's Heroes of Olympus spin-off series is a fast-paced adventure with enough familiar elements to immediately hook those eager to revisit his modern world of mythological mayhem. Clever plot devices--like gods who shift back and forth between their Greek and Roman personae--keep the book from feeling like a retread of Riordan's previous novels. Jason, Piper, and Leo, three students at a wilderness school for troubled teens, are transported to Camp Half-Blood after an unexpected encounter with evil storm spirits on the rim of the Grand Canyon. Not only do they discover that they are the offspring of ancient gods, but they also learn that they are three of seven demigods mentioned in the Great Prophecy uttered by Rachel in The Last Olympian. Wasting little time acclimating to their new lives, the three embark upon a quest to preserve Mt. Olympus and the divine status quo, by rescuing an erstwhile enemy. Rotating among his three protagonists, Riordan's storytelling is as polished as ever, brimming with wit, action, and heart--his devotees won't be disappointed.-- PW

The next chapter in the #1 New York Times bestselling Percy Jackson universe! Book 1 of The Heroes of Olympus fantasy adventure series for readers ages 10 and up. Classmates Jason, Piper, and Leo learn they are actually demigods who must embark on a quest to rescue a certain missing deity... Jason has a problem. He doesn't remember anything before waking up on a school bus holding hands with a girl. Apparently she's his girlfriend Piper, his best friend is a kid named Leo, and they're all students in the Wilderness School, a boarding school for "bad kids." What he did to end up here, Jason has no ideaexcept that everything seems very wrong. Piper has a secret. Her father has been missing for 3 days, and her vivid nightmares reveal that he's in terrible danger. Now her boyfriend doesn't recognize her, and when a freak storm and strange creatures attack during a school field trip, she, Jason, and Leo are whisked away to someplace called Camp Half-Blood. What is going on? Leo has a way with tools. His new cabin at Camp Half-Blood is filled with them. Seriously, the place beats Wilderness School hands down, with its weapons training, monsters, and fine-looking girls. What's troubling is the curse everyone keeps talking about, and that a camper's gone missing. Weirdest of all, his bunkmates insist they are allincluding Leorelated to a god . Fans of demigods, prophesies, and quests will be left breathless--and ready to tear into the next chapter of Heroes of Olympus !, Jason has a problem.

    Good seller, but cards not "new" as listed. They were used, slightly scratched and scuffed, but definitely not in any factory packaging or unopened packaging. Probably would not shop again as seller didn't seem to know how to list trading cards. Kept the cards anyway just due to me wanting them in my PC, but not grade worthy at all. Also sent via package vs ebay envelope, so overpaid for shipping on this one too.

    Good memories

    Read this in middle school and have loved the Percy Jackson series since then. I wanted to have all the of those and the Heroes of Olympus books, and this one was the one I was missing. The price was great and the quality of it was top notch.

    Again a near perfect book, no visible flaws, original cover intact, looks phenomenal, a great deal on a quality product that could have come off the shelves of a bookstore

  • Another One!

    The book was a hard back that came packaged very well and in great shape. The only complaint I have is that it took longer than it should have for me or to receive the book but besides that the price for it was excellent
