THE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER – OUT NOW IN PAPERBACK! THE ORIGINAL HERO. A BRAND-NEW ADVENTURE. Percy Jackson has saved the world multiple times—battling monsters, Titans, even death himself—so graduating high school should be a breeze, right? Wrong. Percy needs three recommendation letters from the gods before his final year in high school comes to an end. And one thing Percy knows: the gods on Mount Olympus don’t do anything for free. To secure his second letter, Percy and his friends Annabeth and Grover agree to a new quest—pet-sitting for the goddess Hecate while she’s away over Halloween. They just need to follow her simple rules: Look after the pets like their lives depend on it (because they do). Don’t touch anything—especially Hecate’s magic potions! See points 1 and 2. But when Grover’s curiosity gets the better of him, the trio find themselves with a giant goat, a destroyed house, and Hecate’s (terrifying and potentially deadly) pets on the loose in New York City. Now the trio have twenty-four hours to find the pets and restore the mansion to order—or face the full fury of Hecate and her horrifying three heads.
