Book 2: The Sea Of Monsters
Percy’s friend, Grover, goes on a mission to find the wild god Pan. But he gets a message from him that he is trapped on an island with a cyclops who has a golden fleece and needs help. Percy asks for a quest to go find him and get a golden fleece from the island.
The other thing that happened is the tree that keeps the magical border sealed was poisoned. The gods all thought that this was Chiron’s fault. So, the gods took him away. This other person is now filling in for him, but he is not the most friendly. When Percy asks for a quest, he puts Clarisse on it. Percy now has to sneak out of the camp to save his friend and get the golden fleece, but Luke is under a spell of Kronos and is trying to stop Percy from succeeding. Can Percy do it and come back alive?
I thought this was an action packed book and had a lot of duels that made reading it thrilling. My favorite part was when Percy was trying to kill the Hydra. He, Annabeth, and Tyson have to defeat it with fire. Another good part was when they were on Circe’s island, Percy got turned into a hamster. It was really funny! I really like this book and thought it was one of my favorites. This book is the second of a five book series.
