The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan

The Lost Hero (Heroes of Olympus, #1)

by Rick Riordan

An incredible, brand-new spin-off series from the best-selling creator of Percy Jackson.

OLD ENEMIES AWAKEN AS CAMP HALF-BLOOD'S NEW ARRIVALS PREPARE FOR WAR

When Jason, Piper and Leo crash land at Camp Half-Blood, they have no idea what to expect. Apparently this is the only safe place for children of the Greek Gods - despite the monsters roaming the woods and demigods practising archery with flaming arrows and explosives.

But rumours of a terrible curse - and a missing hero - are flying around camp.
It seems Jason, Piper and Leo are the chosen ones to embark on a terrifying new quest, which they must complete by the winter solstice. In just four days time.

Can the trio succeed on this deadly mission - and what must they sacrifice in order to survive?

A great read, but I struggled with the equality of having three so called 'heroes' and just how involved each point of view was. It was a little like Percy Jackson, where the same format is used, same character traits, but far too busy and drawn out. Hoping the series improves from here.
