Brief Description:
After a summer spent trying to prevent a catastrophic war among the Greek
gods, Percy Jackson finds his seventh-grade school year unnervingly quiet.
His biggest problem is dealing with his new friend, Tyson-a six-foot-three,
mentally challenged homeless kid who follows Percy everywhere, making it
hard for Percy to have any “normal” friends. But things don’t stay quiet
for long. Percy soon discovers there is trouble at Camp Half-Blood: the
magical borders which protect Half-Blood Hill have been poisoned by a
mysterious enemy, and the only safe haven for demigods is on the verge of
being overrun by mythological monsters. To save the camp, Percy needs the
help of his best friend, Grover, who has been taken prisoner by the Cyclops
Polyphemus on an island somewhere in the Sea of Monsters, the dangerous
waters Greek heroes have sailed for millennia-only today, the Sea of
Monsters goes by a new name?the Bermuda Triangle. Now Percy and his
friends-Grover, Annabeth, and Tyson-must retrieve the Golden Fleece from
the Island of the Cyclopes by the end of the summer or Camp Half-Blood will
be destroyed. But first, Percy will learn a stunning new secret about his
family-one that makes him question whether being claimed as Poseidon’s son
is an honor or simply a cruel joke.
