The Heroes of Olympus: The Demigod Diaries-The Heroes of Olympus, Book 2 -- Rick Riordan, Hardcover

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BEST-SELLING AUTHOR
The worlds of Percy Jackson and The Heroes of Olympus meet in four original short stories featuring the beloved characters from the best-selling series, with bonus art, character interviews and profiles, puzzles, and more rounding out this unmissable collection.
What dangers do runaway demigods Luke and Thalia face on their way to Camp Half-Blood? Are Percy and Annabeth up to the task of rescuing stolen goods from a fire-breathing giant who doesn't take kindly to intruders? How exactly are Leo, Piper, and Jason supposed to find a runaway table, dodge a band of party-loving Maenads (who just might be a little psychotic), and stave off a massive explosion...all in one hour or less?
With his trademark wit and creativity, Rick Riordan answers these questions and more in three never-before-seen short stories that provide vital back-story to the Heroes of Olympus and Percy Jackson books, with a bonus fourth story marking the publishing debut of Haley Riordan, the inspiration for Percy Jackson. Original art, enlightening character interviews and portraits, puzzles, and a quiz add to the fun in this action-packed collection.
