How exactly are Leo, Piper, and Jason supposed to find a runaway table, dodge a band of party-loving Maenads (who just might be a little psychotic), and stave off a massive explosion...all in one hour or less? With his trademark wit and creativity, Rick Riordan answers these questio

Our Review

This collection of four action-packed stories from the world of Percy Jackson offers crucial backstory and thrilling new adventures that bridge the gap between the original series and the Heroes of Olympus saga. Readers get to experience pivotal, untold moments, including Luke and Thalia's dangerous journey to Camp Half-Blood and a high-stakes heist with Percy and Annabeth. The book also delivers a brand-new, frantic quest for Leo, Piper, and Jason, proving that even a short amount of time can be filled with fire-breathing giants and psychotic Maenads.

Riordan's signature blend of modern humor and classic mythology is on full display, making this a must-read for any fan invested in the deeper lore of the demigod universe. The stories provide invaluable insight into character motivations, especially the complex history of a young Luke Castellan, while the new quests capture the frantic, puzzle-solving energy that defines the series. For readers who have ever wondered about the gaps between the books or just crave more time with their favorite heroes, this collection delivers exactly the kind of witty, fast-paced demigod action they love.
