So Percy is going around the camp not knowing what just happened and or how he did what he did in the battle. He begins to remember his powers but doesn't remember that he is a Greek demigod not a Roman. The two camps do not like each other very much. Hazel, one of the guards at the entrance to the camp starts to relies that there is something different about Percy and she suspects that he is NOT a Roman demigod. Hazel trys to talk to her brother and father...Hades... but she can't communicate with them for some strange reason like all the other demigods. Weird Huh? That all for this week! Pick this book up or the first one so you understand what is going on!
2 weeks till the Super Bowl, The Denver Broncos v.s The Seattle Seahawks! The so called "best corner in the game" against a first ballet HOF quarterback in Payton Manning! I can't wait!! I really want to see Payton to win another championship, and I really don't like Pete Caroll that much. Before we can watch the Super Bowl the Pro Bowl is on, and this year it's a lot different having this fantasy draft for the first time. It's going to cool to see how this works. So what would your fantasy team be going into a Pro Bowl?
So we left off at Percy getting into camp Jupiter and he almost died...once again. So he is now in camp Jupiter and it is a mini "Rome" and I looked at the map for it and I would agree with Percy when he says it's a mini Rome. Percy is asked to join one of the teams for a capture the flag...just like in the Lightning Thief! But he does not remember how his powers work or who he is really. The fight begins and he is leading the blue team while a great grandson of a Roman Emperor (can't think of his name), but toward the end of the battle Percy uses his power to control water to defeat the red team and capture their flag.
1 more week till Super Bowl Sunday! Anyone excited besides me? I really want to see San Fansico and Denver in the Super Bowl because I love both Quaterbacks from both teams and they both have really good linebackers. I think it would be an offensive showdown between the 2 teams because Denver's Defense isn't all that good and Denver's offense can score at will! I can't wait till next week!! Who do you want to see in the Sper Bowl?
This is the second book to the Heros of Olympus series, this is about Percy Jackson...yes that Percy Jackson! He, like Jason, doesn't remember anything at all! He litterly tried crossing a highway not knowing what was going on. He did get over they highway...while carrying an old lady and being cased by some weird creature! He winds up at camp Jupiter...ring a bell from one of my old post? Camp Jupiter is a RROMAN demigod camp, but Percy is a Greek demigod... They don't like that very much. But they help him because of what he did to save to goddess. Check this book out now it's fast and has a lot of action can't wait to finish it!
Now that the bowl season I would like to look back on all the great bowls we saw and some not so great bowls. My favorite bowl to watching this year was probebly the orange bowl...not cause I'm an Ohio State fan, but more because of the offensive exhibition from the two teams. It was a great game and yeah I wish Ohio State won, but they played really good and so did Clemson. I didn't like the Belk Bowl I mean come on UC you let a Freshman take on back on you! Did u guys even know there was a game going on it was like watching the UC basketball team during the Cross Town Shootout! So I ask you this witch game was your favorite game to watch and not so favorite game to watch? Comment below!
I finished! That book seemed to taking forever to finish. If you love mysteries, mythical stories, romance, action, and just want to read a great book pick this book up right now I guarantee you will love it! I had a really good time reading the book and the ending is very good and leaves you with a great cliff-hanger. Now I'm not going to tell you what happens at the end because I don't want to be a spoiler to anyone wanting to read it. I might need some help finding a new book to read. Anyone want to help me? Also Rick has finished the series to both of the books of The Lost Hero, and The Red Pyramid. Check them out!
This weekend was the collagen football awards and I'd like to say congrats to Jameis Winston on winning the Heisman Trophy! So I was wondering what other people have won this award, so I went on the Internet and looked at the past winners and their careers at their school/academy. Did you know that Roger Staubach is the only Heisman Trophy winner ever to go to a arms forces academy. Archie Griffen, from The Ohio State University, is the on Heisman winner to win it back to back! Last year Jonny Football was the first ever Freshman to win the Heisman, but this year Famous Jameis became the second in a row!
Alright I got about 150 pages left in my book and it's getting really confusing right now, but at the same time action pack and cool. Right now the gang is at an hotel fighting an Greek monster trying to protect something, I don't know what at the moment. I probably already read what they are going after I just don't remember I have really bad short term memory. Now how they got there is really cool, so there was a out of control mechanical dragon loose in the camp that Hephaestus/ Vulcan (1st name Greek, 2nd Roman) made to protect the camp. Leo who is the son of Hephaestus gets the campers to grab the dragon so he could restore it back to its normal form. Well Leo does and the dragon and him become BFFs and the dragon helps him all the time and they live happily ever after... Just Kidding! Well sorta the dragon helps the friends on their quest to find out what is going on.
So throughout this book I have been thinking...if I were a demi-god who's son would I be? Well me personally I would want to be either Poseidon, Zeus, or Ares. They are like the coolest gods ever! If I were Poseidon's son I would be able to control water and the water would heal me! If i were Zeus's son I could control weather, so if I don't like someone...BOOM! Lightning everywhere ruining their day. Finally if I were Ares's son I could be the best war general ever! And we would never loose a war...EVER! If I could be the son of all there gods... don't get me mad. But I would like to propose a question to you. If you were a demi-god who's son/daughter would you like to be? I will leave a like to a site with all the gods and you can decide! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Greek_mythological_figures
During the break I read my book that I have been reading and also reading some history on The Game. Ohio State and that team up north fans will understand what The Game is. In my usual book The Lost Hero the characters are on their way to Olympus to see what is going on with the gods because they aren't responding to their sons and daughters. The characters now know who their parents are: Jason is the son of Zeus, Jason is the son of Hephaestus, and Piper is the daughter of Athena. Along with Annabeth they are on their way to Olympus.
Also this past week I caught up on my history of the Ohio State and Michigan rivalry. As an Ohio State fan I read mostly things on the Ohio State side, not that ugly blue and yellow side. I found out a lot of cool things like in the 90s John Cooper, the Ohio State coach at the time, could NOT beat that team. Also this weekend I found out that there might be a bigger game than Ohio State Michigan... Alabama Auburn! I watched the Roll Tide, War Eagle 30 for 30 and the fans of these 2 schools are CRAZY! If you don't know much about this rivalry you need to watch this documentary about it, like right now!
So this book is litterly what the title says it is! The protagonist in the story doesn't remember anything from his life, not even his name. Ugh I guess I'll have to tell you guys what the character's name is... Well Jason and his friends were just attacked by tornado daemons on the walk way of the Grand Canyon and were saved by Annabeth, a character from the past series, and are taken to camp half blood. There Jason finds out that he is the son of Zeus, the god of the weather, but he is actually a roman half blood so he would be the son of Jupiter. Jason is slowly starting to remember things while his friends from their correctional camp find out about their god fathers and mothers.
I watched the second Percy Jackson movie this weekend and it was very good! I can't remember how close it was from the book because i read it a long time ago, but my brother just finished reading it and he said the movie was right on the book sometimes then other times it was no where close to it. I think if you love the myths of the Greeks and Romans, you will love not only the Hero's of Olympus series and the Percy Jackson series, but the movies based off the books. In other things Rick Riordan the author of both series has made another series involving Eygytion gods called the Kane Chronicals. I read a little of the first book of the series called the Red Pyramid and I have to say it is very good pick it up now!
