A young boy who doesn't  know his true identity saves the world from a terrible war.

Percy Jackson is a 12-year-old boy who does not know that he's the son of the sea god Poseidon. Percy has deep sea blue eyes and black hair. He befriends Annabeth, Grover, and Luke. 

Grover Underwood  is a satyr who appears to be only 12 but is really 28-years-old. He has blue eyes and brown curly hair. He has to wear baggy pants to hid his furry hindquarters, and he wears a rasta hat so his horns aren't reveled. 

Annabeth Chase is the daughter of Athena, goddess of wisdom and battle strategy. She has had a very rough history and has been at Camp Half Blood since she was 7. She is 12 now.

Chiron is a white stallion centaur. He's been teaching young heroes since he was at least 50-years-old. He's currently about 3000-years-old. He is a child of the titan Lord Kronos which is why he's immortal.

Luke Castellan is a 14-year-old child of Hermes, the god of thieves, messengers, travelers, and merchants. He has a terrible history. His father made him do a quest that Hercules had done. From that quest, Luke got a scare from a dragon he had to fight when he was entering a sacred enchanted garden. Plus Annabeth and his friend Thalia get killed trying to save them when they were at the top of Camp Half Blood.

Mr.D, which stands for Dionysus, is the god of wine but, because he chased an off limits dryad. He now serves his punishment by being camp director at Camp Half Blood. 

Percy Jackson is the protagonist guy in the book. He saves the world with the help of Annabeth and Grover. He is the best swordsmen except for Luke. Percy would be lost in his quests if he didn't have Annabeth to help him. He  kind of gets distracted sometimes and forgets what he's doing. He also doesn't know  all the monsters so he sometimes doesn't know what he's fighting and how to dodge it or if it has poison.

Luke Castellan is the antagonist guy in this book. He's the best at sword play. He knows all about the pressure points on people. He tries to kill Percy a lot in this book. And he knows all about monsters. Luke got brain washed by the titan lord and now wants to end the gods and mount Olympus. He also befriends Percy in the beginning and in the end betrays him and tries to kill him with his pit scorpion. 

In the end Percy finds out don't trust every one you meet.


The central idea of the book is that a young boy who always gets beat up finds out that he is a son of the sea god and receives an important quest to save the world .
