#12 - The Sea of Monsters

Title: The Sea of Monsters (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book 2)
Author: Rick Riordan
Pages: 304
Genre: Fantasy, Young Adult

My review... I just love the writing in these books! They read like I speak. Another great adventure. Easy and fun read!

BLURB: In this second adventure in Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, Percy is anticipating summer at Camp Half-Blood with kids who are the offspring of Greek gods and mortals. He dreams that his pal Grover, a satyr, is in danger. After monsters attack in his school gym class, Percy and Tyson, a homeless kid, are picked up by Annabeth, a half-blood friend, and rushed to the camp, which is under attack. The tree that guards the camp is dying, and Chiron, the activity director, has been dismissed. With the help of Hermes, Percy and his pals set off to the Sea of Monsters, where they encounter legendary dangers. Riordan's clever mix of classical mythology, contemporary teen characters, and an action-packed adventure will bring new readers to the series.
