The heroic son of
Poseidon makes an action-packed comeback in the second must-read
installment of Rick Riordan's amazing young readers series. Starring
Percy Jackson, a "half blood" whose mother is human and whose father is
the God of the Sea, Riordan's series combines cliffhanger adventure and
Greek mythology lessons that results in true page-turners that get
better with each installment. In this episode, The Sea of Monsters,
Percy sets out to retrieve the Golden Fleece before his summer camp is
destroyed, surpassing the first book's drama and setting the stage for
more thrills to come.

Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school... again. And that's the least of his troubles. Lately, mythological monsters and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be walking straight out of the pages of Percy's Greek mythology textbook and into his life. And worse, he's angered a few of them. Zeus' master lightning bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the prime suspect.
Now Percy and his friends have just ten days to find and return Zeus' stolen property and bring peace to a warring Mount Olympus. But to succeed on his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the true thief: he must come to terms with the father who abandoned him; solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves.
