The lost hero

The lost hero is a book about three kids and to a lesser extent a satyr. The book starts off with a kid named Jason waking up on a bus with amnesia, where he sees people next to him who claim friendship with him. After a battle with monsters they're whisked away to camp half-blood where they get sent on a quest to save Hera queen off the Greek gods. On their quest they have many other fun adventures this is great for an adventure loving reader.

Although no one knows really that much about him Jason's first sign of demigod power is his sudden ability to fly, and turns out to be a son of Zeus. Jason has a sister named Thalia and also has the ability to call down lightning from the sky. Although it drains power from him. Jason is a very cool kid and I think you will like reading about him, and his friends Piper and Leo.
