The Sea of Monsters (Percy Jackson and the Olympians)

When Grace Cahill dies, her grandchildren, Amy and Dan, and seven other teams take up the challenge she left behind in her will: to search the globe for the 39 clues that will release the hidden power of the Cahills — a family filled with spies, scientists, artists and explorers — and make the winners the “richest, most important people in history.”

Kronos’s army is poised to invade Camp Half-Blood and demon cheerleaders turn up at freshman orientation — Percy has his hands full.

A cave monster … an abandoned demon … a ghost who wants to erase history … a killer commandant … These are just some of the challenges confronting the young heroes in this highly entertaining anthology. Ten bestselling and award-winning middle grade authors contributed to this collection: Roshani Chokshi, J.C. Cervantes, Yoon Ha Lee, Carlos Hernandez, Kwame Mbalia, Rebecca Roanhorse, Tehlor Kay Mejia, Sarwat Chadda, Graci Kim, and Rick Riordan, who also served as the editor.

Percy Jackson is a 21st century son of the ancient Greek god Poseidon on the biggest adventure of his young life — a quest to find out who stole Zeus’s lightening bolt! Together with his trusted friends, Percy travels through the United States, battling monsters and hunting the elusive title character.

Kronos is at again and Olympus is threatened by an ancient monster. Percy and his friends must find the kidnapped Artemis — the only god who could hunt down the monster.
