A new prophecy leads to a dangerous quest. When Percy receives an urgent distress call from Grover, he immediately prepares for battle.

Our Review

This graphic novel adaptation brings the third Percy Jackson adventure to vivid life, plunging young readers into a world where modern demigods face ancient Greek threats. When Percy Jackson answers a distress call, he embarks on a high-stakes rescue mission that introduces two mysterious new half-bloods and escalates the conflict with the Titan lord Kronos. The visual format makes the mythological action sequences—from sword fights with monsters to divine interventions—immediately accessible and thrilling. This is an ideal entry point into the series for visual learners or a fresh way to experience a favorite quest for established fans.

The artwork masterfully captures the characters' personalities and the epic scale of their journey, translating Rick Riordan's signature humor and fast-paced dialogue into dynamic panels. Children who thrive on action and visual storytelling will be completely absorbed, while the core themes of friendship, bravery, and deciphering prophecies provide substantial emotional weight. This adaptation successfully bridges the gap between chapter books and full-length novels, building literacy and a love for epic mythology. It’s a gripping, page-turning adventure that will leave readers eager for the next installment in the graphic novel series.
