Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters

A book I read this trimester was "Percy Jackson: Sea OfMonsters" by Rick Riordan. This book was probably my favorite book I read this Trimester. And I can relate to the book already because I watched the movie. Percy Jackson is the son of Poseidon, he's a half-blood which means he's half human and half God. Poseidon is the God of water and apart of the "big three" which are the most powerful gods, Zeus and Hades, Zeus is the most powerful and past a law that gods can't see their children. At first Percy didn't know who he was and didn't know he was a god and then he eventually found out who he was and went on a quest to the underworld to save his mother and eventually prove that he didn't steal Zeus's lightning bolt.

However they tell about what happened then in a different Percy Jackson Sequel. At the beginning he was already famous around the half-blood camp because he already saved the world. The camp was protected by a tree that had a force field so that other creatures can't come in, but what Percy didn't know was the tree was his first cousin! The tree was a girl named Talia, she was the daughter of Zeus and was killed by a cyclops trying to get to the camp and she sacrificed her life to protect her friends Anabeth, Luke and somebody else. But one day Percy found out he had a half brother by Poseidon which is half cyclops and that day the tree was poisoned by Luke and a robotic bull.

So Percy, Grover, Anabeth and Tyson went on a quest to find a fleas, which can bring anyone or anything back to life, it's going to be a hard task though, it's guarded by a huge cyclops. When they were on their quest, Grover was captured by Luke and his crew. So Percy, Anabeth and Tyson went to meet with Hermes, which is Luke's father who he hates, and asked where they can find Luke and Hermes told them he was leaving shore on his yacht. Hermes gave them some supplies and protection against Luke. Percy got caught up with the yacht and got captured and got put in a brig and they used magical tape to escape and found out Grover was on another boat ahead to get the fleas to bring Zeus evil father back to life to get vengeance on his sons which killed him.

When they escaped the brig they got a a little life boat on their way toward the fleas, while they were on they're way they got caught in the sea of monsters and was swallowed by it practically. It was gross then they ran into Clarice and her crew and her ship and went threw the stomach with the ship and busted out. When they made it to the island the cyclops didn't have good vision and they found Grover dressed as a cyclops, then they made a plan to take the fleas, but when they escaped Luke and his crew were already out their waiting then took the fleas and shot Tyson for Percy to live. Then Luke brought Cronus back to life with the Fleas, Percy escaped with his sword was at war with Cronus and sliced a hole through his heart and killed him again. Tyson came back to life because when he was shot he fell in the water which healed him and they returned to the camp with the fleas and brought Talia back to life as a human being!
