Synopsis

Haunted by fragmented memories and pursued by monstrous gorgons, Percy Jackson awakens with no recollection of his past, save for one name: Annabeth. His journey of rediscovery leads him to Camp Jupiter, a Roman demigod training ground where he quickly finds himself an outsider. Here, he befriends two new, complex demigods: Hazel Levesque, a daughter of Pluto with a cursed past, and Frank Zhang, a shapeshifter with a fragile life tied to a piece of firewood. Together, the trio is chosen for a perilous quest: to journey to Alaska and free Thanatos, the god of Death, whose captivity has rendered mortals unkillable and monsters unstoppable. As they race against time, battling formidable foes and uncovering ancient secrets, Percy grapples with the strange feeling that he's been through this all before, his forgotten identity slowly surfacing amidst the looming threat of the giant Alcyoneus and the awakening of Gaea. This epic adventure tests their loyalty, courage, and the very fabric of their understanding of what it means to be a hero.
