This book is 544 pages. I apologize for not addressing the amount of pages last time(s).Anyway, the book starts off with one of our main characters, Percy, being chased by two gorgon sisters named Stheno and Euryale. Both in which intend to kill Percy in order to avenge their other sister Medusa, whom Percy killed in book one in the first series, but we're not really on that book, so I won't go into it. Anyway, during this, Percy does not remember anything about his past, besides one name, Annabeth. Once Percy Jackson escapes from the two menacing gorgons(Well, not quite menacing, since both were disguised as two employees at a store called 'The Bargain Mart' and Stheno only offering Percy Cheese 'n' Wieners during the battle.), he meets an old lady, named June, who gives him a choice to carry her safely across the Tiber river to Camp Jupiter and in the end, save the word, or to live safetly at the bottom of the ocean for a happy lonely life. Being the heroic character he was created to be, he carries her across the river, but doing so looses the Mark of Achilles(Which is also in a different book, but again, I won't go into it.).
Percy arrives at Camp, he meets two demigods: Hazel Levesque and Frank Zhang. Together, they defeat the gorgons.
The story goes on as Frank, Hazel, and Percy, go on a quest to free Thantos, the god of death according to the so called prophecy Mars(Franks godly parent and the Roman god of war.) had gave them. This book is written by the author, Rick Riordan, whom enjoys writing books about all different kinds of mythology. Such as Norse, Egyptian, Roman, and Greek.
