The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan

Rick Riordan has done it again--redeeming himself from The Red Pyramid in my eyes.  The second book in the The Heroes of Olympus series is just as good as the first, The Lost Hero. Percy is back without his memory, but, of course, being the son of Neptune in the Roman world is just as good as being the son of Poseidien in his old Greek world.  The prophecies don't lie, and Percy is going to have quite the adventure in the next few books.  He's met a daughter of Pluto, Hazel, who is back from the dead and in this life to redeem herself.  Frank isn't sure which god is his father, but he's trying hard to live a heroic life.  The three immediate friends must go a quest given to them by Ares, and they don't disappoint the readers. I read this book in two days--full of adventure!
