The Lost Hero

The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan 

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.

                                    Smee Bucket- This is the first book in the "Heroes of Olympus" series, which is the continuation of the Percy Jackson series. Despite this you don't need to read the "Percy Jackson" series before reading this one, (although I do recommend it) and this book isn't about him anyway. Riordan packs even more mythology and adventure into this series, making the books twice as long as those in the first series. This book introduces three new demigods, who Riordan fans will like as much as the originals. Anyone who likes adventure, mythology, and humor should read this book. You'll get hooked!
