Blurb

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 idea-except that everything seems very wrong.

Piper has a secret. Her father has been missing for three 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 all-including Leo-related to a god.

Review


When I first started reading The lost Hero by Rick Riordan I was hesitant to read it because I was afraid I wouldn't like the main focus being taken off of Percy. I've come to love Percy Jackson as much or even more as the next guy and didn't feel I was ready to let a new hero into the story line, but The lost hero was just as amazing as the Percy Jackson and Olympian series. It was an excellent start to Hero's of Olympus.
Jason, the new Hero and son of Zeus, wake up on a bus next to his supposed girlfriend ,piper, and best friend, Leo. Strangely h Jason remember nothing and nobody. He has no clue how he ended up on a school bus headed for a museum , and of course being a demi-god that can never go right.
The Lost Hero is action packed and humorous, but it would be difficult to understand if you haven't read Percy Jackson. I also felt that Jason's character wasn't properly built, but let me know if you disagree.
I give this book four stars for creativity, action, mystery, and awesome characters.
