Book Review: The Lost Hero

My first book to read on my kindle! and I couldn't have asked for a better book. Can not wait until the next book is available at the library for ebooks. :)

The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

   Loved this book! I didn't know anything about it other than Rick Riordan wrote it. I really enjoy the way he writes and gives life to each character. What a great surprise to find out that it's a spinoff from Percy Jackson series?! But in this book, Percy Jackson is missing... Here's an overview of the book.

"This new series weaves Greek and Roman mythology, where the gods show different personalities. Jason wakes up on a bus filled with problem kids from the Wilderness School who are headed to the Grand Canyon. He has no memory of his previous life, but seems to be with his girlfriend, Piper, and his best friend, Leo. The action takes off quickly: storm spirits attack them and capture their coach, who turns out to be a Satyr. Searching for Percy, who is missing, Annabeth arrives and takes the three to Camp Half-Blood, where they learn that they are demigods. By sunset of the solstice in three days, the teens must rescue Hera, Queen of the gods, or Porphyrion, the giant king created to destroy Zeus and unseat the gods of Olympus, will rise. Their quest takes them across the United States, sometimes flying on a mechanical, 60-foot dragon, as they use their power and wits against Medea, King Midas, and the giant cannibal Enceladus."
