Percy Jackson, the half-blood son of Poseidon, hasn't been so much of a 'monster-magnet' as he was in previous years, certainly lucky, but confusing just as much. In fact, not a single beast has gone anywhere near Percy. But suddenly, this all changes when a simple dodgeball fight turns into a death-fight with a gang of fireball-flinging, gym-exploding, Demigod-dining, and of course ugly giants which make things even uglier then themselves. Now that's more like a normal half-blood's life.
Suddenly, when he brings his friend Tyson to camp half-blood and discovers that Tyson is a baby cyclops, he later feels weird when Tyson is claimed by Poseidon, like him (which means they are half-brothers!) . But when the barriers of the camp break down, they have to go on another quest to get the golden fleece (which can fix just about anything).
My favorite (new) character was Tyson, because he saves Percy a lot, and he also is funny (he shouts "PONIES!" whenever he sees a horse or anything like one, such as a centaur or some hippocompi.)
My favorite line was when the giant cyclops Polyphemus smashed Tyson with an olive tree. Percy said, "The olive tree hit Tyson so hard it would've turned me into a Percy-pizza with extra olives."
I thought that this book was just as fun as the first book, and I'm working on book three already.
