Synopsis: Jason has a problem. He doesn???t remember anything before waking up on a school bus holding hands with a girl. Apparently she???s his girlfriend Piper, his best friend is a kid named Leo, and they???re all students in the Wilderness School, a boarding school for ???bad kids.??? What he did to end up here, Jason has no idea???except that everything seems very wrong. Piper has a secret. Her father has been missing for three days, and her vivid nightmares reveal that he???s in terrible danger. Now her boyfriend doesn???t recognize her, and when a freak storm and strange creatures attack during a school field trip, she, Jason, and Leo are whisked away to someplace called Camp Half-Blood. What is going on? Leo has a way with tools. His new cabin at Camp Half-Blood is filled with them. Seriously, the place beats Wilderness School hands down, with its weapons training, monsters, and fine-looking girls. What???s troubling is the curse everyone keeps talking about, and that a camper???s gone missing. Weirdest of all, his bunkmates insist they are all???including Leo???related to a god. Rick Riordan, the best-selling author of the Percy Jackson series, pumps up the action and suspense in The Lost Hero, the first book in The Heroes of Olympus series. Fans of demi-gods, prophesies, and quests will be left breathless--and panting for Book Two.
