Product 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.

Rating:  - Help for the Potter Addicted
I've blasted through all four Percy Jackson & the Olympians series and re-read them for extra measure and pleasure.The seamless blending of 21st century situations AND Greek mythology is nectar and ambrosia to someone who, as a child, reveled in Plutarch's mythology of the Greek and Roman gods.It's cleverly written, captures the angst and language of teenagers who have become aware of themselves as heroes and their onerous responsiblity to save mortal humanity.

Rating: - immensely better than book 1!
Ienjoyed this book so much more than I did book 1. I liked "The Lightning Thief" but there were a few things about it I didn't enjoy, mostly the seemingly random monsters they encountered. I feel the author made a perfect move to take an existing story in mythology (the Odyssey) and use that has the basis of the plot. the story just flows better this way, IMO, and doesn't have than random "monster of the week" feel the first book had. I like the addition of Tyson to the story and the conflicts ... Read More
Rating: - Encouragement for reading
My son has a reading learning disability and the audio book not only helps him read the book, but encourages him to do so.He loves the Percy Jackson series and requested this audio book even though it wasn't for a school assignment.This is the first time he has ever shown an interest in reading and the audio book makes reading fun and easier for him.
