More adventures at magical summer camp

The further adventures of Percy Jackson as he finds a new friend and tries to rescue an old one. The comparisons to Harry Potter refuse to die down. It's almost like the plot of this series is Harry Potter going to magical summer camp after school ends instead of his Aunt and Uncle. Still, it's a good ride and numerous characters from Greek mythology pop up to keep things interesting. Of course, the bigger story is starting to take shape, one involving a vanquished foe, a young hero and a prophecy. Sound familiar?
