Rick Riordan (2011). The Son of Neptune. New York: Disney, Hyperion Inc.

The Goodreads choice award 2011
The second book in The Heroes of Olympus series finds Percy Jackson making the trek south to Camp Jupiter in San Francisco. Here he meets some new friends (and an old friend). Percy teams up with Frank and Hazel to journey to the Land beyond the Gods (Alaska) to free “Death.” The only problem is, he doesn’t remember who he is. He only has one vague memory: Annabeth. Travel with Percy and his new friends as he travels north for a quest with Frank and Hazel while trying to recover his muddled memories.
Once again, we have a fabulous story by Rick Riordan that combines mythology and adventure. Following the quest north, we learn about the differences and similarities between the Greeks and the Romans and wonder, will they ever be able to fight together, instead of against each other? Secrets are revealed and memories stir and then begin to fade as the trio travel to Alaska to battle another son of Gaea, Alcyoneus.
