The first book in the new Camp Half-Blood Series “The Heroes of Olympus” is now available for pre-order. The book is going to be called “Lost Hero” and we have already gotten a sneak peak at it through the Borders website. It looks like although the series will not revolve around Percy Jackson, he will at least be involved in the plot.

Here’s a short blurb from Amazon:

Jason has a problem. He doesn’t remember anything before waking up on a school bus holding hands with a girl. Apparently she’s his girlfriend Piper, his best friend is a kid named Leo, and they’re all students in the Wilderness School, a boarding school for “bad kids.” What he did to end up here, Jason has no idea—except that everything seems very wrong.

Piper has a secret. Her father has been missing for three days, and her vivid nightmares reveal that he’s in terrible danger. Now her boyfriend doesn’t recognize her, and when a freak storm and strange creatures attack during a school field trip, she, Jason, and Leo are whisked away to someplace called Camp Half-Blood. What is going on?

Leo has a way with tools. His new cabin at Camp Half-Blood is filled with them. Seriously, the place beats Wilderness School hands down, with its weapons training, monsters, and fine-looking girls. What’s troubling is the curse everyone keeps talking about, and that a camper’s gone missing. Weirdest of all, his bunkmates insist they are all—including Leo—related to a god.

Click here to read more and pre-order at Amazon. Click here to read the first two Chapters at Borders. The book is selling for $10.25 on both and will be available October 12. Will they be as good as Percy Jackson?

Disney-Hyperion has announced a new series of Camp Half-Blood adventures called “The Heroes of Olympus.” We don’t know yet which characters from the Percy Jackson series will be in it, but we do know that Camp Half-Blood has been rebuilt and a “next generation” of demigods will be fulfilling their own prophecy:

Seven half-bloods shall answer the call,
To storm or fire the world must fall.
An oath to keep with a final breath,
And foes bear arms to the Doors of Death.
