percy Jackson Returns In Another Modern-day Adventure With A Greek Mythology Twist—this Time He Must Find A Goddess Kidnapped From Mount Olympus! when The Goddess Artemis Goes Missing, She Is Believed To Have Been Kidnapped. And Now It's Up To Percy And His Friends To Find Out What Happened. They Must Find Artemis Before The Winter Solstice, When Her Influence On The Olympian Council Could Swing An Important Vote On The War With The Titans. Not Only That, But First Percy Will Have To Solve The Mystery Of A Rare Monster That Artemis Was Hunting When She Disappeared—a Monster Rumored To Be So Powerful It Could Destroy Olympus Forever.
voya percy Jackson Is Loyal, Humble, And Defends His Friends. What's Not To Like? It Seems, However, That The Evil Dr. Thorn Wants Percy, The Son Of Poseidon, Dead. Percy, Thalia (daughter Of Zeus), And Annabeth Are Summoned By Grover To Creepy Westover Hall Where The Satyr Has Located Two New Half-bloods. It Is A Setup. Dr. Thorn Mocks The Heroes And Then Boldly Kidnaps Annabeth. The Despicable Act Launches Percy And Company On A Cross-country Rescue Mission, Allowing The Author To Work In Classic Myths, Gods, And Creatures. Action Comes Fast And Furious Here And Only Lets Up When The Characters Pause To Plan Their Next Move. Several Persons Are Repeated From The Previous Books, Such As The Wine-soaked Dionysus And Chiron, Camp Half-blood's Activity Director. Key New Arrivals Are Artemis And Her Unit Of Hardened Archers. These Tough Girls Do Not Play Around And Conduct Themselves As A Deadly Special-forces Platoon-and It Is A Good Thing, Too. Artemis's Warriors Protect Percy's Crew From A Death Squad Of Deranged Skeletal Soldiers As They Zoom Across The American West To Save Annabeth. The Screenplay-like Story Line And Almost Over-the-top Action Might Alienate Literary Purists, But This Reviewer Is Betting That Teens Will Be Thrilled By The Wicked Pace. Especially Gripping Is A Brawl Through The Gods' Junkyard With Seventy-foot-tall Talos, A Scene Hinting Of A Manga Title's Mecha Battle. Mixing Humor With Fantasy And Rousing Swordplay, This Installment In The Percy Jackson And The Olympians Series Is A Hero's Epic Quest Reminiscent Of Cyberpunk Science Fiction Or Addictive Videogames. Librarians Should Lock And Load For Requests.

When Percy Jackson gets an urgent distress call from his friend Grover, he immediately prepares for battle. He knows he will need his powerful demigod allies at his side, his trusty bronze sword Riptide, and...a ride from his mom.
The demigods rush to the rescue to find that Grover has made an important discovery: two powerful half-bloods whose parentage is unknown. But that’s not all that awaits them. The titan lord Kronos has devised his most treacherous plot yet, and the young heroes have just fallen prey.
They’re not the only ones in danger. An ancient monster has arisen—one rumored to be so powerful it could destroy Olympus—and Artemis, the only goddess who might know how to track it, is missing. Now Percy and his friends, along with the Hunters of Artemis, have only a week to find the kidnapped goddess and solve the mystery of the monster she was hunting. Along the way, they must face their most dangerous challenge yet: the chilling prophecy of the titan’s curse.

When the goddess Artemis disappears while hunting a rare, ancient monster, a group of her followers joins Percy and his friends in an attempt to find and rescue her before the winter solstice, when her influence is needed to sway the Olympian Council regarding the war with the Titans

"波西・傑克森再一次出發, 任務的難度更高了. 這回他們要尋找的, 是一位天神. 能將奧林帕斯天神綁架走的力量, 究竟是何等巨大, 何等邪惡呢這不是一場少年英雄單打獨鬥就可以完成的任務, 莽撞的波西在與隊友相處間, 逐漸蛻變成堅強睿智的真正英雄 ... 在這些人間與神界的故事交織下, 不僅刻畫了希臘眾神的面貌與愛恨情仇, 也傳達了凡人少男少女的煩惱, 令人不禁一再讚嘆作者的筆下工夫."--Back cover
