Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Battle of the Labyrinth

Dear (Your Name Here),
         I just started reading a new book that I checked out of the Ampang Library. It's called The Battle of the Labyrinth and it's the next novel in the "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" series. Here is some background information on the book:

• Percy Jackson's father is the Greek god Poseidon, and his mother is a human, making him a half-blood, with special powers designed to fight monsters.
• Percy's best friends are Grover, a satyr and Annabeth, a half-blood like himself. They both attend Camp Half-Blood over the summers with Percy.
• The evil destroyed titan, Kronos, father of the Big Three (Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades), is slowly reforming with the help of a Half-Blood-Turned-Bad, Luke, and other bad monster guys.

So I just finished the first chapter, and I like it a lot. Here's my summary of Chapter one, A.K.A., "I Battle the Cheerleading Squad"
            It's was the freshman orientation for the new school the Percy hoped to go to. His mother's boyfriend, Paul Blofis, was an English teacher at the expensive, high-end building. Percy had been kicked out of school after school, so he hoped, for his mom's sake, that he would not destroy anything. Unexpectedly, Percy ran into a mortal girl whose life he saved at Hoover Dam the past summer. Apparently, she could see past The Mist, which veils most mortals from seeing monsters in their midst. Rachel Elizabeth Dare wanted to know more about the monsters she saw (others had told her she was crazy), and Percy gave her a brief description-before they were interrupted. A  pair of gorgeous cheerleaders blocked their path, and, when they turned out to be  vampire-esk-empousi, a fight raged in the music room. Percy left the saxophones destroyed as he ran away from the wreck he had created, bumping into yet another familiar face. Annabeth was waiting outside the school to go on a "No, Mom, it's not a date, just because were going to the movies alone together" with Percy. They both concluded that they should leave immediately to Camp-Half-Blood.


 A quote that discribes the story so far is, "'Percy?' Paul Blofis looked completely stunned, staring at me from across the fire. 'What have you done?'"

I think that quote describes Percy's journey so far because it shows you that Percy's life is difficult, human people don't understand him, and he tends to destroy things.

                       Yours Truly,
