The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan

The Lost Hero

By Rick Riordan

When I got the book I was very excited to read it and when I did I was very satisfied after I read it. This book is like a continuation of the Camp Half-Blood series. I think that you should read the Percy Jackson books before you read this book. The Lost Hero is about a boy named Jason who's on a bus not remembering anything of his past. A girl named Piper who's supposedly his girlfriend tells him that he's on a bus with his Wilderness School classmates. A kid named Leo tells him that the Wilderness School is where children that have done bad things go. After they are attacked by wind spirits they meet Annabeth and go to Camp Half-Blood where the adventure begins.


I liked this book because it compared Greek mythology and Roman mythology and that made it very interesting. This book was also from multiple peoples views, Leo's, Piper's, and Jason's. I did like that but he made the chapter names the name of the person narrating so there were no funny chapter names. I missed that but I wouldn't want to get confused in who was narrating the story. Some people might say that they don't like the triple narrative because they want to have the same experience as the character. Other people might say that they like it being triple narrative because you know the secrets that some of the characters are keeping (if there are any).

Caution Spoilers Following!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me as Thalia last Halloween

Me as Annabeth this Halloween

The next book being called Son of Neptune definitely tells you that Percy is at the Roman camp and we are probably going to follow Percy at the other camp. My personal opinion is that it should follow Thalia, but that would probably not happen. Another thought on the matter was that it might be new character from the Roman camp who meets Percy and it follows them.


My favorite character is Leo, I like him even though he is kind of side-kicky. He recreates Festus twice so that makes me think that if he fixes anything it'll come back even better. I also like Piper because even though she's in the Aphrodite cabin she's really a rough and tumble girl. Now Jason was my least favorite character of the trio even though he was the main character. He seemed too oh-my-gosh-I'm-a-son-of-Zeus-let's-go-fight-and-I'll-take-on-the-big-one-because-I'm-awesome-ish.

Now I hope you love this book as much as I did!
