The Lost Hero is the first book of The Heroes of Olympus. The story follows the event that happens a few years after the Percy Jackson series. The story begins at the Grand Canyon and a teenage boy name Jason suffering memory lost. He found out that he was with a group of people from wilderness school. He met Piper and Leo that claimed to be his friends. Jason knew that he didn't belong there but couldn't remember anything from the past. Coach Hedge, who is in charge of the kids, told Jason that he didn't belong here. As they started to do group activities, a kid named Dylan turned into a Venti and started to attack them. Coach Hedge transformed into a Satyr. Jason found a coin in his pocket and it transformed into a sword. Just as they were being beaten badly, a chariot came from the sky and Annabeth came and saved them. Coach Hedge was taken away. They were taken to Camp Half-Blood, where demigods of Greek gods and goddesses were kept safe. Later on, Leo was claimed by Hephaestus and Piper was claimed by Aphrodite. Chiron, the leader of Camp Half-Blood was shocked by Jason's arrival and said that he had already been claimed and should be dead. It was revealed that he is the son of Zeus. Hera, wife of Zeus, showed herself in a cage being prisoned. She requested Jason and his friends to save her. Jason chose Piper and Leo as his partner. Leo found the mechanical dragon that was invented by the Hephaestus cabin and learned to control it. They rode on the dragon and went on their quest. On their quest, they fought against giants, cyclops, and other god and goddesses that tried to stop them. As Jason started to gain back his memory, he found his sister, Thalia, and realized that he belonged to the Roman demigod camp. Therefore, his father is Jupiter. They went to San Francisco and saved Piper's dad and went to the wolf house and saved Hera. It was revealed that the person behind this was Gaea, the mother Earth. She wanted to overthrow the gods and goddesses of Mount Olympus and let her sons the giants be king.I like this book because I like Greek mythology. The author cleverly blend Greek mythology to modern times and make an adventurous story. The story is told in 3rd person omniscent and each chapter is told in the point of view of a different character.
