Reading response/Review: The son of neptune

I hvave just finished reading the book: The Son of Neptune, by Rick Riordan
My first thought of the book was that thiss book woould blow me away, and I wasn't disappointed in the least. This series is a prequal to Riordan's first series which had involved the Greek gods and their mythology, where as this new series adds in the romans. The book is about a prophecy that will force both the greeks and romans work towards a commen enemy in the book:Gaea, the goddess of the earth. This new installment in the series focus'sn three main characters: Frank, son of Ares(Mars), Hazel, daughter of Hades(Pluto), and Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon(Neptune). Percy is the hero of the first series that we all know and love, but it appears he doesn't quite know who he is.

Percy has lost his memory, due to the goddess Hera(Juno) so that he will find the roman version of camp half-blood, Camp Jupiter. Their he befriends two powerful demigods(Half human,half god)Frank and Hazel. Their he is chosen to free the god of death,Thanatos.He slowly regains his memory throughout the quesst but finally remembers who he is at the end and learns that his friends from camp half blood are coming to camp jupiter. Now we will half to see if the two camps can work together to defeating Gaea her army.

I thought overall the book was a very exciting and fun read. Filled with a unqiue plot and characters.It keeps the reader hooked til the end.It not only is a fantastic read but it is also has a good moral lesson behind each one or a intergrated issue of the main characters live tying them to the quest and each other.
