THE BEGINNING
In Percy Jackson The Lightning Thief a young boy named Percy Jackson is a dyslexic teenager who on a field trip for his school finds out he is different from most of the kids his age and later that day finds out he is a half-blood. Half-bloods are children of Greek gods and mortals and evil monsters of the darkness like minotaurs, while on his way to camp half-blood located in a secret forest outside of NY city, and his mother is killed by a minotaur. Percy soon finds out that he is the child of one of the three major gods, Poseidon. Poseidon has not had a child with a mortal in hundreds of years and Percy has become the only half-blood who's father is Posiedon, King of the Sea.
Everyone at camp half-blood was startled that Poseidon had finally had a child with a mortal and I could only imagine what Percy was thinking when his life turned from having an average life completely flip flopping into being known as a super star at camp half blood having powers that none of the others showed. Could you imagine your life being turned inside out at a random time in your life?
I can only imagine what it would be like if my life were to be changed into something out of a fiction novel. Do you think that would change a person as a whole like it did in your story? or would they be the same as when they had there normal lives?
ReplyDeleteThis seems like a really good book, I would be so scared if something like that would happen to me. Your whole life would change! How would you feel if that happened??
