The Lost Hero

The book I'm reading is called The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan. Rick Riordan has also written Percy Jackson series and many Greek mythology books that all connect in someway and they are just one huge sequel of Greek mythology heroes and how they are connected. So meaning by they are all connected The Lost Hero is somehow connected to Percy Jackson in some way so if you read it you'll see many connections that you never knew about.

The Lost Hero is about a boy named Jason and he woke up on a bus with Piper and Leo but apparently Piper is his “girlfriend” and Leo is his “best friend”. The main characters are Jason, Leo, and Piper. Jason doesn't remember who he is and who these two people are but when they all wake up they realized that they are going on a field trip. They talk about the last thing they remember and they seem to only remember small pieces of their past life. When they arrive at the museum they face their first monster a wind beast but then Annabeth and Argus come and save them and bring them to Camp-Half-Blood. Camp-Half-Blood is a safe camp were half bloods aka demigods go so they can train and remain safe from the monsters on the outside world. Jason and Piper and Leo get there and Annabeth introduces them all and the kids ask who are their parents meaning who is their godly parent. Leo gets claimed as son of Hephaestus god of blacksmiths and fire and Piper is daughter of Aphrodite the goddess of love and beauty. Then Rachel the oracle tells everyone a line from the prophecy about how demigods must unite and face a certain enemy. The camp sends Jason and his friends on a dangerous quest to restore the world and the gods and if Jason takes the risk his mind well be restored. The main idea of this book revolves the past of Greeks and Romans and the Athena Parthenos a stature said to bring justice for both sides but no Athena child has ever brought it back.

I like the book because there is so much action and you on every page you learn about your main characters more and more. Another point is you learn about the main characters flaws and their life stories and how in someway they are totally different or connected. There are also many different parts in the story and it might be complicated but if you keep reading it'll all make sense. This book would be good for people who like action and like mysteries and greek mythology. This book would be good for people who are just starting to read about Greek mythology because this book also gives good info about Greek mythology. So please give this book a chance and read it trust me it's worth your time to read this book. It also isn't that hard to read and it has decent amount of pages so you won't be bored of the book for being too long.
