Heroes Of Olympusall About Myths

The Lost Hero (The Heroes of Olympus #1)
Jason has a problem. He doesn’t remember anything before waking up in a bus full of kids on a field trip. Apparently he has a girlfriend named Piper and a best friend named Leo. They’re all students at a boarding school for “bad kids.” What did Jason do to end up here? And where is here, exactly?
Piper has a secret. Her father has been missing for three days, ever since she had that terrifying nightmare. Piper doesn’t understand her dream, or why her boyfriend suddenly doesn’t recognize her. When a freak storm hits, unleashing strange creatures and whisking her, Jason, and Leo away to someplace called Camp Half-Blood, she has a feeling she’s going to find out.
Leo has a way with tools. When he sees his cabin at Camp Half-Blood, filled with power tools and machine parts, he feels right at home. But there’s weird stuff, too—like the curse everyone keeps talking about. Weirdest of all, his bunkmates insist that each of them—including Leo—is related to a god.

Teenage Gods

The Heroes of Olympus is an appealing series and a must read for anyone who has followed the Percy Jackson series. Familiar places such as Camp Half-Blood are back as are many of the characters and creatures. What truly makes this series fly is the way in which the classic ideas of Greek and Roman mythology and wound together and become a part of everyday modern life. These are ancient powerful beings living among the average population. These novels are aimed at a teenage crowd which, has some notion of the pantheon of the Greek and Roman deities. The characters are still teenagers in both their age, experience and attitude toward what must be done. They rise to the occasion when needed, but with a fragility and self-doubt that is usually apparent for children of this age. Furthermore while all of the surreal adventures are occurring there is still time for romance and other teenage pursuits.

The Lost Hero: An opening to a new chapter

To say that The Lost Hero is the beginning of a new series would be somewhat of a lie. It is more like the opening of a new chapter in an already established and growing tale. Nonetheless it is the beginning The Heroes of Olympus and of a new story line for the modern day demigods. There is one difference from the Percy Jackson series. There are not only Greek demigods, but Roman ones as well. The novel opens 3 months after the finale of The Last Olympian. The novel begins with the introduction of a new character: Jason Grace who awakens on a school bus unable to remember where or even who he is. He has two classmates, Piper and Leo, sitting next to them who know his name and Piper informs him that she is his girlfriend. He also finds out that they are on a field trip from the Wilderness School, which is a boarding school for delinquents. Once they arrive at their destination, the Grand Canyon, one of their classmates turns out to be a storm spirit and begins to battle the three friends. Everyone, including Jason himself, is shocked when one of his coins turn into a sword and he battles the foe. At the end of the fight a flying chariot appears and Annabeth Chase, from the first series, takes the three surprised children with her. They discover that they are demigods are brought to camp Half-Blood. The new demigods are thrust into action and Jason’s memory begins to return and he remembers that he is in fact the son of Jupiter and was a hero from camp Jupiter.

The Series on Film

Although there are no immediate plans to make this series into movies, there are already two Percy Jackson movies that have been released. Although these were not widely praised by critics they did turn in a sizable profit. There is already a deal in place for a third film in the series. If the films continue to be profitable at the box-office, it can be assumed that the first series will be filmed in its entirety, and The Heroes of Olympus series can then be undertaken. If you want to get an idea of the type of characters that are involved in the series, the first two films can give you a good idea.

The End

The Heroes of Olympus is slated to be a series of five novels which will be completed in October of 2014. The characters are rich and the possibilities endless when dealing with a mythological element. We cannot look at the end of this series as necessarily being the end of the Camp-Half Blood and Camp Jupiter adventures. Perhaps the characters involved in the first two series will grow up and no longer be the focus of future stories, but that does not mean that the setting and premise need disappear. The tales are exciting and enthralling for young readers. Hopefully The Heroes of Olympus is just another part of a series of stories that will continue to grow and entertain future generations of young readers.
