The Sea of Monsters

Author: Rick Riordan

Percy Jackson’s summer at Camp Half-Blood is anything but peaceful. When Thalia’s tree, which protects the camp, is poisoned, Percy and his friends embark on a perilous quest to find the Golden Fleece. Battling mythical creatures and facing treacherous waters, they navigate the Sea of Monsters. With humor and heart, Riordan weaves Greek mythology into a modern adventure, keeping readers on the edge of their seats. I couldn’t put it down, rooting for Percy every step of the way.

Families are messy. Immortal families are eternally messy. Sometimes the best we can do is to remind each other that we're related for better or for worse... and try to keep the maiming and killing to a minimum.
