It's no surpise that I zoomed through through The Lost Hero with relative ease. Rick Riordan's books are always engaging, and I always read them quickly. The Lost Hero begins shortly after the end of The Last Olympian, the final book in the Percy Jackson & the Olympians series. At the conclusion of The Last Olympian a dangerous prophecy is revealed. This book begins the journey that will see this prophecy fulfilled. In The Lost Hero we quickly discover that Percy has disappeared. Three new demigods have appeared at Camp Half-Blood and they must complete a quest to save Hera, the Queen of the gods, before the world is thrown into even greater chaos. In The Lost Hero, we join Jason, Piper, and Leo on this quest and discover that this quest will solve only part of the problem. An even bigger and more dangerous quest awaits. A quest that will require the skills of the seven greatest demigods of the age. Will they unite and save the world as they know it? Or will age-old feuds destroy this quest before it even begins? With an author like Rick Riordan, I guarantee the answers will come in interesting and unexpected ways. I can't wait unitl The Son of Neptune is released this fall.
Next book, Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin. I'm only two chapters in and it's already a sordid mess of adultery and guilt.
