But, they were save because Mr.Hedge the styr (half goat half human) saved them, but he disappeared with the storm spirt.Than they met a girl named Annabeth. Who tooked them to the half blood camp. She toldthem that she was finding her boy friend named Percy Jackson, and Hera told to her that where Jason was standing was told to be the place that Percy had to be. That day, they all got claimed exept Jason. Piper was founded to be the dauther of Apjroite, and Leo was son of Hephoetus, and Jason was found out to be the son of Zeus.They all have special ability.Leo knows how to summond the fire. Piper could charm speak to others and make others fallow her, and Jason is already special than anyone by being the son of Zeus. Eventhough they are new comer they got a quest to do. The quest was to find the kiddnaped Hera. They first flew to the palace, Boreas is living. He let Jason and Piper enter to his room, because he thought fire meeting with ice is not good idea.He tried to kill them, but he changed his mind, because he thoughtthe quest is impossible to succed it, he thought they would be dead, eventhough he doesn't kill them.They went through lots of strange things.

They almost turned into gold for ever, but Jason fought for his friends and free everyone who turned to gold statues including Piper and Leo. They found the Hera at last ,she said she was glad to have demigod like Jason.Than they were back to the half blood camp. They figured out that there is other camp for Roman,and Percy is lost in there, like Jason was lost in Greek camp.
Are character believeable?
I think I could believe because the aouthor discribes demigod that doesn't belive the gods, eventhough they are children of them. The personality and the world they are living is same as us, but they can see what we can't see.The monsters that had lived in Greek appears and it happens at the place tha no one comes, or it is covered with something called mist, so that mortal would see the different thing from the demigods. I think this story is kind of telling readers that demigods and monster could be near with us, and that god is like human.So, the story is balievable,and the characters are believable.
On a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being best), how would you rate this book?
Iwill give this book 9.I think this is good book that talks about Greek and Roman mythology in mothern world. Demigods are trouble makers that has ADHD.the story is humors, and it discribes the characters mind very well, but in the story the main characters seems to be the special one than others, Jason is the main character, and he is the star and the leader of anything, and they don't get in serious danger, so readers could not be interested in book somethimes, but still I believe that this book is good book and worth to be the best seller.
Rachel,
