But eventually he is claimed by the god of oceans and seas, Poseidon. Percy is “undecided”, meaning that his god parent is still unknown. He is astonished to learn that this is the only safe place for half-bloods–that’s what they are called: they are half god and half human. The counselors explain that every camper at Camp Half-Blood had been stalked by monsters for their whole lives because they are all demigods. Later, Grover reveals that he is a satyr. Percy and Grover eventually make it to Camp Half-Blood without Percy’s mother. His mother turns into golden light as she is attacked. On the way, they are attacked by a minotaur. Later, Percy’s mom tries to get him to a mysterious camp that she calls “Camp Half-Blood”. They are cutting someone’s life thread, and that spooks Percy (like it would spook anyone else). Percy thinks that they look like the Fates, which we learn later that they are. Grover seems very uneasy as he watches the women. One of them takes out a pair of shears and cuts the rope. When Percy and Grover are boarding a bus, they see three creepy and elderly women holding a yarn. Afterwards, the day continues as if nothing happened and everyone seems to have forgotten about Mrs. His Latin teacher tosses him a pen that when uncapped turns into a sword named Riptide. (Later he finds out that she is a Fury.) She attacks him and tries to kill him. He is in big trouble because she transforms into a monster. Dodds, who is not his favorite teacher because she hates him, tells him to come talk to her privately. In his new school, Percy’s only friend is a boy named Grover. Percy hopes that the new school that he is attending will be different. One time, Percy could have sworn that the man following him only had one eye. At every school Percy has been stalked by strange people. Marshmallow’s Summary (with spoilers): Percy Jackson has been expelled from every single school he has been in. Marshmallow’s Quick Take: If you like Greek mythology, then this might be the book for you. Marshmallow reviews Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief (Book 1 of the Percy Jackson Series) by Rick Riordan. Today Marshmallow who already finished the whole series is reviewing the first book here: The Lightning Thief. So of course the book bunnies decided to read it themselves at home. Caramel’s class was reading the first of Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson and the Olympians series before schools closed down.
