Jason has a problem. He doesn't remember anything before waking up on a school bus holding hands with a girl. Apparently she's his girlfriend Piper, his best friend is a kid named Leo, and they're all students in the Wilderness School, a boarding school for "bad kids." What he did to end up here, Jason has no idea-except that everything seems very wrong.
Piper has a secret. Her father has been missing for three days, and her vivid nightmares reveal that he's in terrible danger. Now her boyfriend doesn't recognize her, and when a freak storm and strange creatures attack during a school field trip, she, Jason, and Leo are whisked away to someplace called Camp Half-Blood. What is going on?
Leo has a way with tools. His new cabin at Camp Half-Blood is filled with them. Seriously, the place beats Wilderness School hands down, with its weapons training, monsters, and fine-looking girls. What's troubling is the curse everyone keeps talking about, and that a camper's gone missing. Weirdest of all, his bunkmates insist they are all-including Leo-related to a god.
Rick Riordan, the best-selling author of the Percy Jackson series, pumps up the action and suspense in The Lost Hero, the first book in The Heroes of Olympus series. Fans of demi-gods, prophesies, and quests will be left breathless--and panting in anticipation for Book Two. The accessible and dramatic cover art by graphic novelist Nilah Magruder will attract a new generation of readers.

Awesome, I love it soooo much!!! It inspires me to write my own stories and books! I just recently published a book on Lulu.com and I hope it sells! Thanks for the inspiration! Keep going on with the series! I can't wait for book five! ^_^
The first book in the heroes of olympus series. It is a typical book kids love to read, young antagonists that learn about their special abilities. The main characters, who have barely known about their powers, have to defeat evil monsters and enemies to save Hera, the queen of olympus. A wonderful book with never ending action.

This book is an awesome start to a new series by Rick Riordan and I can't put it down because of how awesome Rick Riordan is at writing.
At first I wasn't really sure but after I read it, I did not change my mind. It really made me want to read more of the series. So it was an awesome book.
