About This Book

Seventh grade has been surprisingly quiet for Percy Jackson. Not a single monster has set foot on his New York prep-school campus. But when an innocent game of dodgeball among Percy and his classmates turns into a death match against an ugly gang of cannibal giants, things get...well, ugly. And the unexpected arrival of his friend Annabeth brings more bad news: the magical borders that protect Camp Half-Blood have been poisoned by a mysterious enemy, and unless a cure is found, the only safe hav

Our Review

This graphic novel adaptation brings Rick Riordan's second Olympian adventure to vivid life, plunging readers back into Percy Jackson's world where seventh grade normality shatters when dodgeball turns deadly against cannibal giants. The visual format intensifies the action as Percy and Annabeth race against time to save Camp Half-Blood's poisoned magical borders, transforming the quest through the treacherous Sea of Monsters into a cinematic experience that leaps off the page.

The artwork captures both the humor and heart of Riordan's storytelling, giving tangible form to mythological creatures and locations that fuel young readers' imaginations. Fans of the original novel will appreciate seeing their favorite scenes visualized, while newcomers get an accessible entry point into this modern mythology universe. Between the dynamic fight sequences and emotional character moments, this adaptation proves some stories gain new dimensions when you can actually see Clarisse's smug grin or feel the churning waters of the sea of monsters threatening our heroes at every turn.
