As Annabeth and her friends Jason, Piper, and Leo fly in on the Argo II, she can’t blame the Roman demigods for thinking the ship is a Greek weapon. Just when she's about to be reunited with Percy-after six months of being apart, thanks to Hera-it looks like Camp Jupiter is preparing for war. well, because the demigod authors would prefer not to be struck down, thank you very much.Īnnabeth is terrified. And, of course, there are divine words of wisdom from the god Apollo himself, because.
Chiron himself introduces the book with a brief history of training based on his millennia of experience.
