It all began in downtown Manhattan where Percy woke from a strange dream he had about his friend Grover, telling him something was wrong at Camp Half-Blood, which was a summer camp for half-bloods. Percy had hoped it was just going to be another school day, but, how wrong was he.
Another friend of his, named Annabeth, another half-blood, met him at his school and confirmed that the camp was in trouble. He took along his school buddy, Tyson, who was a giant of a kid but also a big softy unless someone pushed the wrong buttons.

They needed to get the Golden Fleece to save the camp and also save Grover. Otherwise, Percy had the chance to die.
Clarisse, another camper, was given the quest to find the golden fleece, so she also set out on a ship, crewed by skeletons.
Percy's crew get into a bit of trouble and then get rescued by Clarisse. After boarding Clarisse's ship, they head out together to find the fleece. As they approached the Sea of Monsters, (Bermuda Triangle) things turned wild, and the ship blew up, leaving Percy and Annabeth in a lifeboat, not Knowing what has happened to Tyson and Clarisse, They continue on their Journey to the island where Grover and the fleece are.
Once there, they find Grover, locked in a cave by a giant cyclops and they also discovered that Clarisse and Tyson are both still alive and on the same island. After fighting with the giant cyclops, they manage to free Grover and grab the Golden Fleece and get off the island, but their ship was destroyed during the fight with the cyclops. Percy prays to his father for help, which in turn, they were given hippocampi, a horse at the front with a silvery fish's body with rainbow tail

    Since the group needed the second pearl they had to find it in a museum. They saw a giant statue of a Athena in the center of the room. The pearl was on her crown, it was too busy to take it that moment so they had to stay after hours. They used the flying shoes Luke loaned them to get it. They had it but they saw five janitors, who said to Percy, “give us the lightning bolt Percy Jackson.” He ran and they all turned into a three headed dragon. Percy dropped the pearl, he needed a distraction to be able to get it. So Annabeth started to call it names and ran. He almost got it when they breathed fire, he used the shield Luke gave him to protect himself. He used his water powers to break the fountains and splash all water on the beast. Percy cut off its heads, but he didn't know they grew back but with more. Now it had six heads! They got the pearl and ran towards the door when it was about to blow fire at them.

    Aside from my fascination with Nick’s perseverance and dedication, I was intrigued by the friendship that developed between Nick and Trent, the local bully. At first, Trent and Nick didn’t get along. In fact, Trent beat Nick up. However, as Deuker took us through their relationship we saw how they soon became good friends who were connected through the game of basketball. From this, I realized that some of the people best fit for you could be right under your nose, but they put up a façade to support their tough guy image so you don’t get a chance to get to know who they truly are.…

    My favorite part of the story is when a Minotaur kills Percy’s mom and Percy Jackson kills the Minotaur. It is crazy because he kills the creature with one of its own horns! A Minotaur is a big bull type of creature, sent from Hades. Hades is the ruler of the underworld or “Hades” as they call it. Percy Jackson goes on this amazing journey with his friends Grover and Annabeth to save his mother from Hades and prove that he is not the lightning thief. The lightning thief is actually Luke, another demigod from camp half-blood. Luke is the son of Hermes, the messenger for the gods. Apparently Luke wanted to start a war among the Gods.…

    In The Sea of Monsters, a 13-year-old demigod Percy Jackson goes on a quest with his friend Annabeth, a daughter of Athena, and Tyson, a Cyclops, who happens to be Percy's half brother. They go to save Thalia's pine tree, which has been poisoned mysteriously , and to save Grover, Percy's best friend. In order to get the Golden Fleece, which will heal the tree, he must travel across the omious Sea of Monsters to an island guarded by the Polyphemus and his man-eating sheep, where his friend Grover is trapped. Throughout the journey, Percy, Annabeth and Tyson face many challenges, such as the Sirens, Scylla, and Hydra. During the climax of the book the trio fights with Luke, an old friend. Back at camp, since Thalia's tree is injured, the magical borders of Camp Half-Blood have been going down, allowing monsters to enter the camp. Chiron has also been suspected as a perpetrator, and replaced by the extremely antagonistic Tantalus, who was cursed to an eternal fast for serving his own children at a feast for the gods. In the end, Percy rescues Grover, defeats Polyphemus (with help from Tyson, who was thought to be dead by that time), and retrieves the Golden Fleece. Chiron is re-hired and everything seems to be perfect. When they return to camp, the camp places the Fleece on the tree. The next day, Grover awakens Percy to find out that the Golden Fleece also brought Thalia back to life. Giving Kronos another chance to control the…

    Percy, being the only known child of one of the big three gods, who is still alive, is being disturb by the fact that he might be the one who will either save Olympus or totally destroy it. While in the camp, Percy meets Tyson, his half-brother who is a Cyclops. Because of Tyson’s true nature, Percy becomesa little bit shameful of him. When their camp is later attacked by a traitor of their kind, they discover that thetree which protects the camp was poisoned. In order to keep the camp safe, Annabeth Chase, the daughter of Athena, finds out an answer. She discovers that the Golden Fleece can restore the tree back to life, so the camp’s director sends the daughter of Ares, Clarisse, to look for it while Percy, together with Annabeth, Grover and Tyson, decided to look for the fleece on their own. With the help of the Graeae Sisters, they reached Washington, D.C., and are able to know the coordinates to the island where the fleece can be found. Unfortunately, Luke ordered his men to capture Grover, and they did, because satyrs are naturally drawn to the fleece, thus, looking for it will be much easier for Luke. The remaining trio, Annabeth, Percy and Tyson then meet Hermes, Luke’s father. He told them that Luke is in a cruise ship, called the Princess Andromeda, in the Atlantic Ocean. Hermes asks Percy to convince Luke to stop because it’s not yet too late. Armed with magical gifts from Hermes, the trio take a Hippocampus,a mythical creature which is a half-horse, half-fish, to follow the cruise ship. They end up being captured by Luke’s soldiers, but still manage to escape using the magical gifts. Eventually, they reach the Sea of Monsters which the humans called the Bermuda Triangle and is swallowed alive by Charybdis. They meet Clarisse in its stomach and as one group they are able to get out of it and reach Circe’s Island, an abandoned amusement park above the lair of Polyphemus, where they save Grover and acquire the Golden Fleece before being threatened by…
