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.

Best book series ever!!!

I have read Th Sea Of Monsters and i think that there are alot of times when you think you know what is going to happen and then the opposite thing happens! Almost every person i have asked has said that they like this book and would reccomend it to everyone! Do you like adventurous books? Then this is the series for you!

Awesome, I love it soooo much!!! It inspires me to write my own stories and books! I just recently published a book on Lulu.com and I hope it sells! Thanks for the inspiration!

This is one of the best books I have ever read! I have reread it about a million times, and i feel that I can really relate to Percy. My favorite character is Annabeth, who is a lot like me. I enjoy the whole series. You should really read this book!

This book has a tone of adventures, and if you like Harry Potter then you will love Percy Jackson!

This book is probably my 2nd favorite in the series because it is just really really awesome.

this book is really intriguing, and that's why i love most books, especially the Percy Jackson series. all of them
