After a summer spent trying to prevent a catastrophic war among the Greek gods, Percy Jackson finds his seventh-grade school year unnervingly quiet. His biggest problem is dealing with his new friend, Tyson-a six-foot-three, mentally challenged homeless kid who follows Percy everywhere, making it hard for Percy to have any "normal" friends.
But things don't stay quiet for long. Percy soon discovers there is trouble at Camp Half-Blood: the magical borders which protect Half-Blood Hill have been poisoned by a mysterious enemy, and the only safe haven for demigods is on the verge of being overrun by mythological monsters. To save the camp, Percy needs the help of his best friend, Grover, who has been taken prisoner by the Cyclops Polyphemus on an island somewhere in the Sea of Monsters, the dangerous waters Greek heroes have sailed for millennia-only today, the Sea of Monsters goes by a new name.the Bermuda Triangle.
Now Percy and his friends-Grover, Annabeth, and Tyson-must retrieve the Golden Fleece from the Island of the Cyclopes by the end of the summer or Camp Half-Blood will be destroyed. But first, Percy will learn a stunning new secret about his family-one that makes him question whether being claimed as Poseidon's son is an honor or simply a cruel joke.

loved it!!!!
I love the series but this is probably a my least favourite book out of the series. For all of the people who have read Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief but haven't read the Sea of Monsters, this is a good book but the series get even better. So if you think this book is good the next ones are awesomer (I know its not a word).
I like it because it mixes the real world with fantasy from greek legends. It's about a boy named Percy that's half human who lives in a magical summer camp. The border that keeps mortals out is poisoned and Percy has to find the cure.

This book carries on the story of the half blood Percy Jackson . In this book Grover is in trouble. Talias tree has been posioned. Percy and his friends go to find the golden fleece to save Talias tree and Grover.
This book is one of the best especially since it has Greek mythology in it. This book is also one of the best since it has so much adventure and mysterious parts.
This book is great and I think it's much better than it's movie. I really love the book series.
This book is soo good!!! I have read it at least 2 or 3 times! I love how it sends 2 great rivals on a quest to save Percy's friend and to find a live saving item. It has non stop action for anyone who wants fun in learning mythology.
