Thrill ride. Those are the 2 words I would use to describe this book. This is the second book in the Percy Jackson series. The first book kicked off to a great start and the second one went above and beyond. Percy had a pretty bad start to 7th grade. The kids are not very nice to him because he is friends with a homeless boy named Tyson. Then, he goes to Camp half-blood and he finds that someone has stolen the borders to protect all of camp! So him and his friends start out to find something called the golden fleece. On his way there he faces many dangers. including monsters. And he realizes Tyson is more than just his good friend....he's his brother.
