ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Percy isconfused. When he awoke after his long sleep, he didn’t know much more thanhis name. His brain-fuzz is lingering, even after the wolf Lupa told him heis a demigod and trained him to fight. Somehow Percy managed to make it tothe camp for half-bloods, despite the fact that he had to continually killmonsters that, annoyingly, would not stay dead. But the camp doesn’t ring anybells with him.

Hazel is supposed to be dead. When she lived before, she didn’t do a verygood job of it. When the Voice took over her mother and commanded Hazel touse her “gift” for an evil purpose, Hazel couldn’t say no. Now,because of her mistake, the future of the world is at risk.

Frank is a klutz. His grandmother claims he is descended from ancientheroes, but he doesn’t even know who his father is. He keeps hoping Apollowill claim him, because the only thing he is good at is archery. His big andbulky physique makes him feel like a clumsy ox, especially in front of Hazel,his closest friend at camp. He trusts her completely-enough, even, to sharethe secret he holds close to his heart.

Beginning at the “other” camp for half-bloods and extending asfar north as the land beyond the gods, this breathtaking second installmentin the Heroes of Olympus series introduces new demigods, revives fearsomemonsters, and features other remarkable creatures, all of whom are destinedto play a part in the most important quest of all: the Prophecy of Seven.
