If you love action, romance, drama, comedy, and or mythology, then this is the book for you! I loved the way that Rick Riordan wrote the plot. Sometimes he wrote it so well so I could tell exactly what was going t happen next, and other times he wrote it so well that I had no idea what was coming next. Anyway, I just want to say that this is a great book, in a great series. #Leo is the best!

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.

This book was an amazing continuation to the famous Percy Jackson series! It starts off with a ton of questions, and ends in a huge cliffhanger, leaving us with even more questions than before! Overall, this book was a complete joy to read, and introduces the readers to a complete new set of characters (Of course, Annabeth and a few other older favourites are still there) and takes us on a wonderful journey! I would whole-heartedly recommend this to someone who has read the Percy Jackson series and enjoyed it.

Jason Grace wakes up on a school bus, supposedly headed for a field trip, completely disoriented. He has no memory of Leo Valdez, claiming to be his best friend, or Piper McLean, who appears to be his girlfriend. And when they arrive at the field trip destination, deadly winds and sudden flying powers further confuse Jason's mind. Is this all a dream, after all? But then Annabeth Chase arrives at the scene, wild-eyed and rambling, which confirms that all of this is very real. She drags Jason, Leo, and Piper to the mysterious Camp Half-Blood, where more danger - if that's possible - awaits. Now, the new demigod trio must save Hera and figure out the cause of Jason's loss of memory, but death may be patiently waiting on the other side. This earthshaking first book in the Heroes of Olympus sequel series will bring readers back to the mythical world of Percy Jackson, and leave them vying for more.
I really like all the the Rick Riordan books they are really interesting and I never get bored of them
I LOVED this book because it had lots of suspense and adventure. I liked how the author made things strange to make the book more better. The part I liked in this book is that when Piper has a fight with the Aphrodite counselor, Drew. And of course, Piper now became the head counselor. Thank you so much Mr. Riordan!
