Don't get me wrong, this book was AMAZING, but I kept on searching for more, mainly because I love the Percy Jackson characters and was searching for more of them, especially Percy who, in a sense, wasn't really in the story at all.

After loving the Percy Jackson Series last year, my friend recommended that I give The Heros of Olympus series a go and WOW, this was the perfect Reading experience after a busy few days commuting into London this provided the perfect reading experience on the train, and I help that I can get really emersed into the story via Audio Book.
We are introduced to Jason Grace, Piper McLean and Leo Valdez! Jason wakes up on school bus, holding hands with Piper and joking with Leo. It seems they’re going on a school trip. It all seems very simple, right? I’m sure it would be, if it wasn’t for the simple fact that Jason doesn’t know or remember those around him, and at the same time, he knows he’s not supposed to be there! When the group comes under attack from some vicious storm spirits their saving Grace comes in form of Annabeth Chase. However, Annabeth is not happy, she’s angry and frustrated, because as it turns out, she’s looking for her boyfriend Percy Jackson who’s missing.
I really enjoyed how the characters all came together to help save the day, they all help and support each other. Jason led them successfully and encouraged them the whole quest. Piper used her charmspeak to persuade the enemy or mortals to not kill them or lend them a helicopter. Brainiac Leo with his power of fire fixed and created almost any machine and even zapped a cyclops when Piper and Jason were about to get eaten.
This book is captivating and intriguing. The characters are so unique and so hilarious. You can totally relate to some of them. This book contain humour which is a plus. Love the action scenes. I love the romance that develops throughout the books between certain couples. I love this middle grade series. And I highly recommend it. Rick Riordan is one of my favourite authors.
