The last four chapters were
awesome and were full of excitement until the last word of the book. After they all got the fleece and out of the
sea of monsters they reached land Miami Bay. As soon as they got off and to
land Percy told Clarisse to carry the fleece with her and take it to the camp,
after all, it was her quest. But as soon as Clarisse went with the fleece a few
moments later Luke and his team caught Percy and his friends and took them all
to the Princess Andromeda as prisoners. Already at the boat Percy managed to
record the conversation between Luke and him which is evidence that clears up Chiron’s
name as not guilty for poisoning Thalia’s
tree . Luke asked several times were was the fleece ? But he didn’t realize
that Clarisse was taking to the camp until moments later . Percy challenged Luke
to a sword fight as part of his plan to distract him and let his friends go .
Percy knew that the odds of him winning the fight was very little since he hadn’t
practiced and plus Luke was a terrific sword fighter . But just when Percy was
about to get killed Luke revived an arrow with a boxing glove on the top knocking
him out . Centaurs including Chiron (Chiron’s cousins ) came to help! They fought
against Luke’s little army and managed to get Percy and his friends out of there
each riding a centaur to the camp. Centaurs are extremely fast which led Percy
and his friends get from Miami to the camp in no time (even though the camp is
located farther that long island New York).When they got to the camp it was
just about to die it was very damaged because of various attacks from monsters. But everything with the golden fleece stared
became normal again . And something surprising had happened the fleece had
worked on the tree way to good that one night Anabeth was guarding the fleece
and suddenly a girl popped out of the inside of the tree . That girl’s name is
called Thalia daughter of the Big Three , daughter of Zeus.
QUOTES
“He unclipped his cellphone from his quiver and handed it
to me. “It’s high time you called her.”
The worst part was the beginning- the “Percy Jackson –what were
you thinking-do you have any idea how worried I was-sneaking off to camp
without permission-going on dangerous quests and scaring me half to death.” Part.
But finally she paused to catch her breathe. “Oh, I’m just glad you’re safe!” (Riordan,
271)
This quote immediately made me have
a personal connection with my daily life . It makes me remember the times my
mom gets scared and worried about me whenever I do a joke about myself. For example
once I told my mom I got robbed on the street by some dangerous smugglers
riding my bike that made her be in the same mood that Percy’s mom was in.
“Even Chiron, Anabeth, and Grover, who should’ve been celebrating this
moment, were too shocked, thinking about what it might mean for the future. And
I was holding in my arms someone who was destined to be my best friend, or
possibly my worst enemy.”(Riordan , 279 )
This quote made me have a personal reaction. Made me think who is going
to be Thalia in the future? It also made think if she would ever be Percy’s
friend and live exciting moments together or will she be on the dark side of
the current situation.
CONCLUSION
Overall I think this book was awesome , entertaining and mostly fun and
not boaring to read like the other books . I love Rick Riordan’s work, I just
think it’s amazing the amount of mystery
and creativity he put in his books . I also admire a lot how he makes the
setting very modern and how he puts in Greek
myths mixed with the story . I absolutely don’t have any bad review on this
book or any other books of his because
so far they have been incredible . I highly recommend this book to any guy that
likes mystery and action and even if you don’t like reading , this is the book
that you will fall in love with . In conclusion, I loved reading this book and can’t wait to read
the next one .
