All year the half-bloods have been preparing for battle against the Titans, knowing the odds of victory are grim. Kronos's army is stronger than ever, and with every god and half-blood he recruits, the evil Titan's power only grows. While the Olympians struggle to contain the rampaging monster Typhon, Kronos begins his advance on New York City, where Mount Olympus stands virtually unguarded. Now it's up to Percy Jackson and an army of young demigods to stop the Lord of Time. In this momentous final book in the New York Times best-selling series, the long-awaited prophecy surrounding Percy's sixteenth birthday unfolds. And as the battle for Western civilization rages on the streets of Manhattan, Percy faces a terrifying suspicion that he may be fighting against his own fate.

Percy awakens from a long sleep with little memory beyond his name, struggling to grasp his identity as a demigod after being trained by the wolf Lupa. Despite battling monsters, he reaches a camp for half-bloods, but it feels unfamiliar, with only the name Annabeth echoing in his mind. Hazel, who is supposed to be dead, grapples with her past mistakes. Once obedient to her mother, who was consumed by greed, Hazel was forced to use her powers for evil, jeopardizing the world's future. She dreams of escaping on a stallion that haunts her visions. Frank, clumsy and unsure of himself, is burdened by his heritage and the mystery of his father. He yearns for Apollo's recognition, feeling inadequate despite his archery skills, which fail to shine in camp competitions. His bulky frame makes him self-conscious, especially around Hazel, his closest friend, to whom he confides his deepest secret. This thrilling second installment of the Heroes of Olympus series expands the narrative beyond the camp, introducing new demigods, reviving formidable monsters, and showcasing extraordinary creatures, all intertwined with the Prophesy of Seven.
