Pan - The god of the wild, who satyrs spent thousands of years looking for. He later faded when Grover found him, in front of Grover, Rachel, Percy, Annabeth, and Nico. He had extinct animals as pets. Ladon - Ladon is a dragon who guards the apples of the Hesperides. He wounded Zoë, fatally wounding her and killing her. Castor - Castor is a son of Dionysus, twin brother of Pollux. He is stabbed and killed in the Battle of the Labyrinth. La película (2010) fue una gansada y una de las más decepcionantes adaptaciones que vi jamás. ¡O sea fue todo tan raramente filmado! La trama moderadamente fiel y los geniales efectos especiales estuvieron ahí, concedido, y tal vez incluso algo de la actuación también; ¡pero todo se sintió tan mal e inconexo! Y tantas cosas dejadas afuera. Fue todo tan triste, la intención claramente estuvo ahí, pero el espíritu definitivamente no. Difícilmente comparable al libro. Lerman y Daddario tal vez estuvieron ok, cuando mucho; pero Brosnan como Quirón fue lamentable. ¡Y el final tan insultante a la progresión de la serie! ¿Pelear contra Cronos? ¿¿¿En serio??? Como si no pudieran esperar para lanzar al mayor antagonista final de la serie directo al principio. Y el inexperto recién llegado Percy ganándole tan fácilmente, contra el más terriblemente poderoso dios jamás. ¡Por favor! Lamentablemente, No Recomendable. ¡Aunque muchos puntos para Sean Bean por no morir!

I read this for my dad & he actually liked it very much. another proof for this story is regardless of age XD (also I was a very good narrator.) As soon as Mrs Dodds was sure poor little Nancy was okay, promising to get her a new shirt at the museum gift shop, etc., etc., Mrs Dodds turned on me. There was a triumphant fire in her eyes, as if I’d done something she’d been waiting for all semester. ‘Now, honey –’ No one seems to recall Mrs. Dodds’ existence, after Percy destroyed her, so he is even more convinced something strange is going on. Frustrated by this and other strange occurrences, his grades drop, he fights with Nancy, and then disrespects a teacher. With the end of the school year approaching, Percy is expelled from returning to Yancy Academy in the fall, but he is allowed to finish out the current school year. Percy decides the only final he will prepare for is Latin since Mr. Brunner is his favorite teacher. He approaches Mr. Brunner’s office and overhears a conversation between Mr. Brunner and Grover regarding the incident with Mrs. Dodds. They talk about magical mist making the students and staff forget the altercation. Then Grover says that Percy may be the only one who can save them from the “Kindly Ones” before the summer solstice. The introduction of Greek mythology adds a fantastical element to the novel. Even Percy’s name is a modern version of Perseus, the demigod son of Zeus best known for killing Medusa. As more characters are introduced—like Mrs. Dodds, who is one of three Furies—it becomes apparent that while Percy inhabits a contemporary world not unlike our own, his world possesses hidden depths.

Luke Castellan used Annabeth's knife to kill himself to stop Kronos. This was only possible because Percy trusted Luke with Annabeth's knife. This is the same knife that he gave her when she was little. He promised that they would be there for her and that they (including Thalia) would be a family. Luke broke his promise so the blade became cursed.

No – he didn’t expect me to be as good; he expected me to be better. And I just couldn’t learn all those names and facts, much less spell them correctly. Chiron - Chiron is a centaur and the director of Camp Half-Blood. Chiron is the son of Kronos and is immortal, training demigods for thousands of years. Chiron trained many heroes including Achilles, Jason, Hercules, Atalanta, Patroclus, Perseus, and Percy. As long as he teaches demigods he will remain immortal. He is son of Kronos.It´s a bit like Good Omens by Pratchett and Gaiman, just as a longer series and with a focus on fast, funny, and creative clashes of old mythology and today's life. The message, as so often, is that Hera - Goddess of marriage, wife of Zeus. She interacted with Percy, Tyson, Grover, and Annabeth in the labyrinth and saved them from Janus.

I have moments like that a lot, when my brain falls asleep or something, and the next thing I know I’ve missed something, as if a puzzle piece fell out of the universe and left me staring at the blank place behind it. The school counsellor told me this was part of the ADHD, my brain Chiron/Dumbledore knows a prophecy about Percy/Harry but won't tell Percy/Harry what it is exactly.

Grover didn’t say anything for a while. Then, when I thought he was going to give me some deep philosophical comment to make me feel better, he said, ‘Can I have your apple?’ From the Files of the Time Rangers – also based on the premise of Greek gods active in modern-day United States I know it's a middle grade book and I give all the credits to the book that it deserves being so easy to get into and for being written in such an adventurous, fun, fast-paced style (ah, the gods seeming more us mortals than the actual mortals 😁) and for being still interesting to read considering it was written more than 15 years ago.
