The Heroes Of Olympus: The lost Hero

I have started a new set of books by Rick Riordan called The Heroes Of Olympus. I read the first book this week called The Lost Hero, after that one there’s The Son of Neptune and The Daughter of Athena which is coming out soon. I stayed up last night trying to finish the first book, I thought it would be really hard. But it was quite easy since I couldn’t put the book down for one second!

The Heroes Of Olympus are a run off from the Percy Jackson series or as Rick Riordan says ‘’A return to Percy Jackson’s word’’. It's Camp Half-Blood once again, and it's got Percy Jackson in it!

Its starts with a boy named Jason, who wakes up on a bus not knowing where or who he is with completely no memory. Now Jason has to figure out who he is with his two new friends Leo, who believes Jason to be his best friend, but later discovers that this was a fake memory manipulated by a mind altering substance called the Mist. And Piper, She believes she and Jason Grace are a couple but is soon given the truth that it was just an illusion.

I loved these books a lot, mostly because I really enjoyed the Percy Jackson ones. One thing I loved about them was everybody from the Percy Jackson book is in these ones. My favourite thing about books with Greek mythology and demi gods would have to be finding out what old of goddess is there parent.

Some of my favourite quotes:

  “Piper gripped his hand and followed him, “If I fall, you’re catching me.” “Uh, sure.” Jason hoped he wasn’t blushing.
Leo stepped out next. “You’re catching me, too, Superman. But I ain’t holding your hand.” 

“Gaea?” Leo shook his head. “Isn’t that Mother Nature? She’s supposed to have, like, flowers in her hair and birds singing around her and dear and rabbits doing her laundry.”
“Leo, that’s Snow White,” Piper said.” 

“She reached into her coat pocket and felt two things she hadn't expected.... One was a wad of cash... she brought out the money. Leo whistled. "Allowance? Piper, your mom rocks!” 

I recommend these books to 9 and up, there an amazing set of books so far. Funny. Vastly entertaining. Action-packed. Extremely gripping. Can’t wait to read the next one!!
