It was a good book, but I think Riordan is trying to strech Percy Jackson for too long. The greek gods have gotten a little boring, even if in this book they add some Roman twist. Each book will have a different plot, which somehow links to the next. But each incident is over too fast, in my opinion. Some unexpected things aren't even related to their quest. Not too good, but not bad either.
I am a huge Riordan fan so I loved this book! This book introduces quite a few new characters and at first I was very disappointed due to the lack of Jackson action. But then I got really into the book and I have to confess that it's amazing! The new characters are innovative and original and I'm sure a lot of people can relate to them. I would definitely recommend this book for anyone with a taste for good literature!

I loved the book!! Riordan dives right into the story! He perfectly meshes Greek and Roman mythology...Its ingenious the way he does it! He twisted the places and characters in the Percy Jackson series to fit in this story line,which is spectacular...Throughout the whole book, you're asking questions beyond where's Percy. Riordan gives you just enough answers to appease you.He perfectly balances the giving and withholding of information. The Heroes of Olympus is definitely, with out a shadow of doubt,is better than Percy Jackson and the Olympians!I simply love everything about this book.
Jason doesn't know where he is from, how old he was, who his parents were. He didn't even remember his last name. But when he lands at Camp Half-Blood, he feels that it is wrong for him to be here. One day, he finds out that he is really a gamble by the queen of gods, Hera. But now, when Hera is captured, she looks up to him to save her. If he doesn't, he would never get his memory back,and a great enemy will rise, which means destruction for gods. Will he, with his friends Piper and Leo, be able to save Hera in time?
The Number one, bestselling title in this new spin-off series from Percy Jackson creator, Rick Riordan. OLD ENEMIES AWAKEN AS CAMP HALF-BLOOD'S NEW ARRIVALS PREPARE FOR WAR When Jason, Piper and Leo crash land at Camp Half-Blood, they have no idea what to expect. Apparently this is the only safe place for children of the Greek Gods - despite the monsters roaming the woods and demigods practising archery with flaming arrows and explosives. But rumours of a terrible curse - and a missing hero - are flying around camp. It seems Jason, Piper and Leo are the chosen ones to embark on a terrifying new quest, which they must complete by the winter solstice. In just four days time. Can the trio succeed on this deadly mission - and what must they sacrifice in order to survive?
Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series became a huge hit among all the age groups.So, one would certainly expect a lot more from these new series.Well, as a matter of fact, this first installment certainly provides the kick start of much more about to come. The characters are well crafted and indulge the reader quite often in the ongoing plot.The reader, many a times, is taken to the past events.The absence of Percy is quite brilliantly managed by the new "Heroes."This book is packed with fun and a lot of adventure, and forges the path of a new series in the making.
This book is the perfect starting to the heroes of Olympus range. Like all of Rick's books it starts and ends with a cliffie. The intro of new characters like Jason Piper and Leo give a fresh twist. One of the best parts of this book is the longing and pain in Annabeth to meet Percy. Also Rick manages to capture and hold on the Percabeth ship for a while
This book is the first in the new series by Rick Riordan, Th Heroes of Olympus, and is supposed to be a continuation of sorts freom his first, which featured Percy Jackson as the main hero. So, most readers will be surprised to find him not appearing at all, except a vague hint that he has disappeared! Therefore, as a fan of the first series that the first book dissapointed me by not featuring any of the main characters from the first series, except Annabeth, who came for two pages. However, otherwise the story is amazing and i believe that, characters aside, it is a very good read.
Jason has forgotten all about himself.His memory consists of the present.The world seems alien.A strange adventure land Jason and his supposed girlfriend & best friend Piper and Leo into Camp Half-Blood,where Jason finds out that he is a demigod and that the camp is the only safe place for demigods.But somehow, the small fragments of Jason's memory tell him otherwise.Embarking on a dangerous and deadly quest,the trio set out to make things right and find themselves in their worst nightmares,where old memories take on a new meaning.As always,Riordan has you biting your fingernails till the end.The book is for adventure seekers as well as myth geeks.Hope you enjoy it!!
Rick Riordan the myth master,has truly given his best book to the readers.it is a fantastic blend of myth and modern. continuing the percy saga and adding many more fantabulous charachters to his collection has once again drawn more people to the book reading craze. following the titan war the most astonishing thig is that percy is miising and that is when 3 new heroes arrive at camp half blood. jason,piper and leo are chosen to go on the quest which holds the answers to geeting back jason's memory.piper,the daughter of aphrodite is torn between her father and her friends .the villain is the mother earth,gaia andhas been playing with the heroes' lives .they set out to confront poryphiron and free hera .they rescue piper's father and jason learns of his sister thalia grace.after surviving the missio0n,jason reveals the existance of the roman camp jupiter.they set out to find percy and fullfill the second prophecy.a truly fantastic read. all should read.
When Jason, Piper and Leo crash-land in camp Half- Blood, they are completely confused. Piper and Jason have weird visions from Hera, the queen of gods, telling them that Hera is in a trap and only the three friends can save her. Jason has no memory of his past. A famous hero, Percy Jackson, has vanished from the camp. They all feel that there has to be connection between all those things. The three friends are sent on a quest. And in the quest, they realize that they have to stop Gaia, the mother of all giants from waking up and destroying Olympus. They have to complete this quest until the winter solstice, which is only four days away. Can they complete their quest in time, and stop Gaia from rising again? This book is even more exciting and awesome than the previous books in the series. One simply cannot keep it down until they’ve finished reading it, and its ending is so shocking that you simply can’t wait to read the next book in this series. Rick Riordan has done a marvellous job with this book, making it even more awesome than his previous books. All these things make this book a must read.
This fantastic book, The Lost Hero (a spin-off of the Percy Jackson & the Olympians series) has got to be one of the most thrilling I have ever read.

The story set-up isn't terribly smooth, and this is a denser read than the first few Percy Jackson books, but once the action heats up, that's easily forgotten. It definitely helps to read the Percy Jackson series first. This spin-off uses the same camp that trains heroes and churns out three more intriguing demigods. Whether they're as likable as Annabeth and Percy is still up in the air, but it's a promising start. Always a draw with Riordan's books is his sense of humor and ingenious mix of myth and modern. Aeolus makes a compelling argument for why meteorologists are wrong so often, and Medea makes for a divine charmspeaking saleswoman (ready to talk you into buying a wide variety of poisonous potions, right this way). This sense of fun and adventure makes every one of Riordan's books a quest worth undertaking.
greek mythology at its best is what rick riordan provides us with. readers might be disapointed at first for not finding their favourite hero percy jackson in the story but towards the climax you will find a tremendous shift of events which will lead to a big twist in the story.a perfect blend of greek and roman myths can be seen in the book. the story revolves around JASON A SON OF ZEUS and his jouney through america with friends leo and piper in order to save the queen of olympus ,HERA.twists are the central theme for the story. THIS BOOK IS A MUST READ IF YOU LIKE THE PERCY JACKSON SERIES.

As the book starts, Jason Grace awakens on a school bus, unable to remember who or where he is, or anything about his past. He is sitting next to Piper McLean and Leo Valdez, who know him by name and say they are his girlfriend and best friend respectively. All three are part of a class field trip to the Grand Canyon, and after they arrive, a classmate Dylan turns into a Venti (Storm Spirit) and attacks the trio and their trip leader, Coach Gleeson Hedge. In the ensuing fight, Jason surprises everyone, including himself, when his gold coin turns into a sword, which he uses to battle the storm spirit. During the fight, Coach Hedge revealed himself as a satyr and was captured by the spirits as they fled. Soon after the fight, a flying chariot appears in order to save the three, but one of the people in it, Annabeth Chase, is upset when she discovers that her boyfriend, Percy Jackson, who mysteriously disappeared, is not there as she expected. Annabeth, seeking Percy, was told in a vision from the goddess Hera to look there for the "guy with one shoe", but this turns out to be Jason, who lost his shoe due to the storm spirit attack. Jason, Piper, and Leo are told that they are demigods and are taken back to Camp Half-Blood where they meet other Greek demigod children like themselves. There, Leo is revealed as a son of Hephaestus, Piper as a daughter of Aphrodite and Jason as a son of Jupiter, though Hera tells him he is her champion. In the Aphrodite cabin, Piper is horrified to discover that the head councilor, Drew, is abusing her position as well as rare gift of charmspeaking (which Piper also possesses) to take advantage of the other Aphrodite campers. In the Hephaestus cabin, it is revealed that Leo has the rare ability to conjure fire (a power that has not been seen for centuries), but does not use nor tell anyone about it out of guilt about his mother's death seven years prior. Meanwhile, Jason finds out about his sister Thalia Grace. She is the demigod daughter of Zeus and is a Hunter of Artemis. Shortly after they arrive, the three are given a quest to rescue Hera. In the woods, Leo discovers a mechanical bronze dragon (made by the Hephaestus campers long ago) that he names Festus (Happy) and starts to repair him. Piper, Jason, and Leo soon discover that their enemies are working under orders from Gaea to overthrow the gods. Thalia and Jason meet each other again for the first time ever since Jason was captured by Hera when he was an infant. On the way to Aeolus's castle, Jason, Leo, and Piper become separated from Thalia, who says she will return and meet them at the Wolf House, the last place Thalia had seen Jason before this meeting. After almost being imprisoned by Aeolus under Gaea's orders, the trio manage to escape thanks to Mellie, Aeolus's former assistant, and end up in San Francisco, thanks to the result of a dream Piper had with Aphrodite. After landing in San Francisco, the trio rush to Mount Diablo to fight the giant Enceladus, who captured Piper's father. They manage to kill the giant with the help of Zeus sending a thunderbolt and save Piper's father (Tristan McLean), after which they rush to the Wolf House to free Hera. Although the heroes and the Hunters save Hera, the king of the giants, Porphyrion, rises fully; Hera's energy was being used to raise him, and disappears into a hole in the Earth to escape Hera as she uses her power to destroy the monsters around her. Back at Camp Half-Blood, Jason's memory then starts returning, and he remembers that he is a hero from Camp Jupiter, a camp for Roman demigods, and is the son of Jupiter, Zeus's Roman counterpart. Meanwhile, Piper challenges Drew and after a brief power-struggle is made the new Aphrodite counsellor. Leo shows the Hephaestus campers (along with Jason and Piper) bunker nine, revealing his fire powers along the way. In bunker nine, he shows them plans for a ship that would sail to Greece, and the Hephaestus campers decide to undergo the project, also appointing Leo to be their new counsellor. Jason realizes that Hera, also known as Juno, has switched him with Percy Jackson, who will be at Camp Jupiter with amnesia, in the hopes that the two camps would become allies and seven demigods will defeat Gaea and the giants together.

It's a must read! Full of action, adventure and some amusing remarks here and there. If you are a Percy Jackson fan you would definitely love it. It introduces us to Jason who feels like he doesn't quite belong in Camp Half-Blood. He also has two best friends Piper McLean and Leo Valdez.
The title of this book suggests directly that the book tells us the story of a missing hero who's important. The genre of this book is fantasy and is fitting for all the age groups to have a go. The author Rick Riordan uses a semi-formal kind of style in his writings which is good. The book was published in the year 2010 by Penguin publications. This book succeeds the Last Olympian, where it explains hoe Percy Jackson's defeat over Kronos wakens Gaia, the mother earth. It is a fantastic book to read. It's price is 599/- in India and $6.99 as per the U.S currency.
