Some of your favorites from Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson & the Olympians return in this new series which will ultimately unite the Greeks and the Romans in an attempt to stop Gaea, mother earth, from taking over and destroying the world as we know it. In this first book of The Heroes of Olympus series introduces three new characters: Jason, Piper, and Leo. We follow these three friends on their quest to save Hera and help Jason get his memory back.


This book, although appears large, is a fast read and enjoyable for any young adult. It is a mix of fantasy and adventure and introduces the reader to Greek and Roman mythology. Join the world of Olympus as it exists today - in America. This is a fantastic book and will make you want to learn more about mythology, or at least pick up the next book to see if you can find another lost hero.
