First Read: Sept. 2024 (Spanish Edition): 
HE IS BACK!!! Every book with Percy  🌊 is a good book, here we have his POV and two new friends.
They are both from Camp Jupiter, the Roman demi-goods camp. In the book ONE we discovered that Jason lost his memories and he's on half-blood Camp. In book TWO is from Percy's POV, he has lost his memories too but he's on Camp Juniter. A new adventure/battle in this camp


The two new guys are Frank/Hazel, I like them a lot. They are much more likebly if you compare with Piper/Jason from Book 1, also this novel has a lot of funny moments thanks to Percy. I addmit that Leo was great in that one.
Frank is son of Mars (Ares in Greek Myths), it's more peaceful than his father, it's good with arrow and bow. Hazel is a daughter of Pluton (Hades in Greek Myths), she can detected metals from Underground (silver/gold/diamonds, everything) she represents the fourtune of the death but she has a curse. Everyone who keeps that diamonds/gem gets extremly bad luck. She's like Nico, she was born in 1940.


I personally think Riodan best work is when it is written in first person, I always prefer third person, but Percy's POV is really easy to love. When It's well done, i really appreciate it.
