The Sea of Monsters

Summary: After a summer spent trying to prevent a catastrophic war among the Greek gods, Percy Jackson is finding 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 that 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 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.


Together with his friends, Percy must retrieve the Golden Fleece from the Island of the Cyclopes 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.

What I thought: I really enjoyed this book. I love watching the characters grow up. I can't wait to see how Percy and Annabeth's relationship change over time. I really wish Tyson could have stayed with Percy. I'm really looking forward to continuing this series.
