The lightning Theif

The kids manage to get away from the dogs and make it to Hades palace.  They reach Hades.  He didn’t have the master bold.  Aside from that his master weapon was missing.  The person who took the master bold also had to take his weapon.  Percy was confused but he had an idea of who might have it.  They looked for a way to escape underworld but only three people could get out.  It was four of them, Annabeth, Grover, his mom and him.  Who would stay?  That was a question that had to be solved fast.  His mom decided to stay and Percy promise to come back for her.  Percy and his friends left and on their way to earth they found the missing master bolt.  They return it to Mt. Olympus.  Zeus was happy Poseidon was very proud of what his son had done. 

 I like the ending because it has some mystery.  Also the ending doesn’t completely solve so you can make up your own ending.  I like the part where Poseidon and Percy meet for the first time and Poseidon tells him how proud he is.   

The Lightning Thief

These sculptures had something so realistic about them.  This was because they were actual humans.  Medusa could turn people into statues with only a look at her eyes.  Percy and his friends enter this store.  This lady offers the kids a meal and they were happy.  Annabeth found something suspicious about the lady.  She immediately told Percy and Grover to run from her.  They fought with her and Percy using his sword chopped her head off.  Percy decided to send Medusa’s head to his father in Olympus.  Finally they reach the Golden Coast.  They meet Ares the god of war who gives them pointers on where the entrance to the underworld was.  The three friends enter the dark world.  Hades dogs were wondering around the palace.  They could smell humans.  This wasn’t good for the kids. 

This remains me of church.  When the priest talks about bad people going to hell.  Usually no one wants to go to hell and in their case they want to go to hell.  I really like this part because it gives me an idea of what hell is like and what goes on there. 

The Lightning Thief

Percy and his friends are heading west to Cali.  On their way they find all types of monster.  The first they face are three female vampires who are waiting for them right outside camp half blood.  While in camp, Percy is giving a pen that magically transforms into a high tech sword.  This was a gift from Poseidon.  Percy and his friends defeat the vampires and continue on with their trip.  Percy had disappeared from his house in New York so his picture was all over the news.  When they took a bus to California, Percy’s picture was all over.  They had to escape fast because Percy was in fear he would be taken to his step dad.  Accidentally they forgot their belongings which included their money.  Now they had no way to go to California.  They decided they were going to walk for a while and see what came up.  The only thing that came up was more monsters.  They came to a store that had lots of sculptures on the garden and they decided to go in…

I liked this chapter because there is a lot going on.  This chapter kept me reading more and more.   

The Lightning Thief

Percy, Annabeth and Grover started training for their "big" quest.  Not a lot of people at half blood camp went on quest so they felt important.  Their big quest was to find Zeus’s master lightning bolt.  It had been stolen since the summer solstice.  The first person they think of is Haden.  Percy thinks that Haden stole the Bolt because he wants Zeus and Poseidon to fight so he can gain more power.  It was a crazy idea but they wanted to go to the underworld to look for the bolt.  No one had come back alive from the underworld before except for Hercules.  They have no idea how to get to the underworld.  They receive an advice from the camps elder.  He tells them that the entrance to underworld is in California.  They head west to California. 

The only part I don’t like about this chapter is that underworld is suppose to be in California.  California is the happiest place.  What I like about this section is that Percy is now discovering his true powers and he is learning to use them to his advantage.  Now Percy is starting to fight demons and killing monsters
