Percy is confused
When he awoke after his long sleep, he didn't know much more than his name
His brain-fuzz is lingering, even after the wolf lupa told him he is a demigod and trained him to fight
Somehow percy managed to make it to the camp for half-bloods, despite the fact that he had to continually kill monsters that, annoyingly, would not stay dead
But the camp doesn't ring any bells with him
Hazel is supposed to be dead
When she lived before, she didn't do a very good job of it
When the voice took over her mother and commanded hazel to use her "gift" for an evil purpose, hazel couldn't say no
Now, because of her mistake, the future of the world is at risk
Frank is a klutz
His grandmother claims he is descended from ancient heroes and can be anything he wants to be, but he doesn't see it
He doesn't even know who his father is
He keeps hoping apollo will claim him, because the only thing he is good at is archery - although not good enough to help the fifth cohort win at war games
His big and bulky physique makes him feel like a clumsy ox, especially in front of hazel, his closest friend at camp
He trusts her completely - enough, even, to share the secret he holds close to his heart
Beginning at the "other" camp for half-bloods and extending as far north as the land beyond the gods, this breathtaking second installment in the heroes of olympus series introduces new demigods, revives fearsome monsters, and features other remarkable creatures, all of whom are destined to play a part in the most important quest of all: the prophecy of seven
