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?

You can already guess it: I love love love the book. After I devoured the Percy Jackson novel I was eager to get hold of the next series. I'm very pleased to say that Rick Riordan didn't let me down with The Lost Hero.
It's amazing how he introduced a new set of characters you will grow fond of within the first 10 pages. I won't dwell on the Greek mythology part but you all know by now how much I adore that stuff and especially Riordan's adaptation.
And I really want to know what the hell happened to Percy!
Obviously I can't wait to get my hands on the next part!

Rick Riordan managed to write another amazing novel that is absolutely impossible to put down. Just as wonderful as his other novels. A must read!
