Rick Riordan - Percy Jackson and the Titan's Curse
It’s not every day you find yourself in hand-to-claw combat with a half-lion, half-human. But when you’re the son of a Greek god, these things happen. All I was trying to do was bring two new demigods back to camp. But the arrival of the manticore changed everything. Now my friend Annabeth is missing, a goddess is in chains and the general of the Titans wants to unleash a tribe of skeleton warriors on the world. This is the one where only five of us heroes can join the dangerous quest to defeat the doomsday monster – and our camp’s Oracle has predicted that not all of the chosen five will survive . . . Can Percy save Annabeth – and the rest of the world – before the curse destroys him forever?

Rick Riordan - Percy Jackson és az olimposziak
A tizenkét éves Percy Jacksont eltanácsolják az iskolából. Megint. Bármennyire igyekszik, úgy tűnik, képtelen távol tartania magától a bajt. Tényleg nem szabad megvédenie magát az algebratanárnővel szemben, amikor az szörnyeteggé változik, és meg akarja ölni? Természetesen senki sem hisz Percynek a szörny-incidenssel kapcsolatban; abban sem biztos, hogy magának hisz. Egészen addig míg a minótaurusz be nem kergeti a nyári táborba. Hirtelen mitikus lények járkálnak ki-be a lakokba, és Percy görögmitológia-könyve megelevenedik. Rájön, hogy az olimposzi istenek a huszonegyedik században is élnek. Sőt, ami ennél is rosszabb, felbosszantotta őket: Zeusz villámát ellopták, és Percy az első számú gyanúsított. Percynek mindössze tíz napja van arra, hogy megtalálja és visszaadja a Zeusztól ellopott holmit, hogy békét teremtsen a háborúságban álló Olimposzon.

Rick Riordan - Thorovo ​kladivo
Volám ​sa Magnus Chase. Pred rokom o takomto čase som vyberal smetné koše, spal pod mostom, flákal sa s kamošmi Hearthom a Blitzom, vyhýbal sa policajtom a snažil sa jednoducho prežiť ako bezdomovec. Pred dvoma mesiacmi som z ničoho nič umrel v boji s ohnivým obrom a prebral som sa v hoteli Valhala ako jeden z Odinových bojovníkov einherjarov. Od svojho znovuzrodenia som si už zvykol na veľa podivností. Putoval som po deviatich svetoch a stretal severských bohov, elfov, trpaslíkov a rôzne bandy netvorov, ktorých ani neviem pomenovať. Získal som magický meč a s jeho pomocou spolu s kamarátmi som odvrátil ragnarök – súdny deň. A myslíte, že ma potom čakal zaslúžený odpočinok? Ani nápad! Sotva som našiel Meč leta, už aby som sa vydal pátrať po ďalšej kúzelnej zbrani, stratenom Thorovom kladive...

Rick Riordan - L'eroe ​perduto
Jason ​si risveglia in uno scuolabus, accanto al suo migliore amico e a una bellissima ragazza. Ed è terrorizzato. C'è infatti un piccolo problema: non ricorda assolutamente nulla di sé. E quando una torma di spiriti della tempesta cerca di ucciderlo, qualcosa gli suggerisce che dovrà al più presto venire a capo del mistero. Piper non si spiega perché il suo ragazzo non si ricordi di lei.

Leo ha sempre avuto un'attrazione per il fuoco, e quando arriva al Campo si sente stranamente a casa. Sarà quello il motivo per cui tutti gli dicono che una parte di lui discende dagli dei?

Rick Riordan - A ​sötét prófécia
Apollón, ​az egykor ünnepelt isten különféle okokból szánalmas halandóvá silányult. Most félvér barátai társaságában beutazza Észak-Amerikát, hogy teljesítse küldetését, és visszaférkőzzön Zeusz kegyeibe. Zeusz azzal büntette fiát, hogy egy Lester nevű esetlen, pattanásos, halandó kamasz alakjában a földre taszította. Csak úgy kerülhet vissza olimposzi trónjára, ha feléleszti a sötétbe borult orákulumokat. Apollón a Félvér Táborban kiállt sok veszélyes – és enyhén szólva is megalázó – próbatétel után most hajmeresztő küldetésre indul. Ő és társai azt a feladatot kapják, hogy keressék meg az ókor legveszélyesebb orákulumát, egy kísértetjárta barlangot, ahol Apollón megtudhatja, miként változhat vissza istenné – már amennyiben sikerül elkerülnie a halált vagy a tébolyt. A csapatot a gonosz Triumvirátus második tagja, egy római császár hátráltatja küldetésében, akinek vérszomja és nagyzolása mellett még Nero is eltörpül. Apollón csak úgy élheti túl a kalandot, ha egyesíti erejét a váratlanul felbukkanó szövetségesekkel, akik a félistenek világából sietnek a segítségére. Tarts velünk ezen a viszontagságokban, vidámságban és haikukban bővelkedő utazáson!

Rick Riordan - The ​Blood of Olympus
Though ​the Greek and Roman crew members of the Argo II have made progress in their many quests, they still seem no closer to defeating the earth mother, Gaea. Her giants have risen—all of them, and they’re stronger than ever. They must be stopped before the Feast of Spes, when Gaea plans to have two demigods sacrificed in Athens. She needs their blood—the blood of Olympus—in order to wake. The demigods are having more frequent visions of a terrible battle at Camp Half-Blood. The Roman legion from Camp Jupiter, led by Octavian, is almost within striking distance Though it is tempting to take the Athena Parthenos to Athens to use as a secret weapon, the friends know that the huge statue belongs back on Long Island, where it might be able to stop a war between the two camps. The Athena Parthenos will go west; the Argo II will go east. The gods, still suffering from multiple personality disorder, are useless. How can a handful of young demigods hope to persevere against Gaea’s army of powerful giants? As dangerous as it is to head to Athens, they have no other option. They have sacrificed too much already. And if Gaea wakes, it is game over.

Now Ana’s been gunned down and her fellow cops don’t need to look far to find a prime suspect. For Ana recently reopened the most infamous cold case in SAPD history–the unsolved murder on notorious Mission Road eighteen years before that threw the San Antonio underworld into bloody chaos. Ana was about to bring charges against the suspected killer: her husband, Ralph Arguello.Tres is sure that Ralph didn’t do it–and that he didn’t shoot his wife. But with the police and the Mafia both out for revenge, there’s no one to turn to for help. Now, armed and dangerous, the targets of a citywide manhunt, Tres and Ralph have just hours to discover what really happened on Mission Road almost two decades ago.

Rick Riordan - Rebel ​Island
Triple-crown ​winner of mystery’s most coveted awards—the Edgar, the Anthony, and the Shamus—Rick Riordan and his Texas-style take on the crime novel have never been bigger or darker than in this latest Tres Navarre thriller. This time Navarre faces a killer as unstoppable as a force of nature. Tres Navarre had given up private investigation—and with it a violent past that had buried too many friends. Newly married, with a baby on the way, it was time to find a safer line of work. He and Maia had come to Rebel Island to celebrate their honeymoon and a new future. But no sooner had they arrived than a reminder of the past showed up in the form of a corpse shot dead in room 12. Just like that Tres finds himself flashing back on the memory of a grim childhood summer spent on the island—a summer that changed everything in his life. A summer he could never forget but never entirely remember either. And when a second corpse turns up, it’s clear to Tres that the past is not dead and buried after all, but is stalking Rebel Island with unfinished business of its own. What really happened that long-ago summer, what dark secrets were kept, and who has come back to avenge them…these are the questions Tres, his brother Garrett, and the very pregnant Maia must answer—and time is running out. For a monster hurricane is about to hit Rebel Island, cutting them off from the mainland and leaving them trapped on a flooding island with the hotel’s remaining guests brutally dying one by one. Tres knows better than anyone that the bloodlines of South Texas are as twisted as barbed wire. This time they’re guarding a revelation that can turn his dreams of happily ever after into the ultimate nightmare.

Rick Riordan - Robert Venditti - The ​Son of Neptune
Percy ​is confused. When he awoke after his long sleep, he didn't know much more than his name. His brain-fuzz is lingering, even after the wolf Lupa told him he is a demigod and trained him to fight. Somehow Percy manages to make it to the camp for half-bloods, despite the fact that he had to continually kill monsters that, annoyingly, would not stay dead. But the camp doesn't ring any bells with him. Hazel is supposed to be dead. When she lived before, she didn't do a very good job of it. When the Voice took over her mother and commanded Hazel to use her "gift" for an evil purpose, Hazel couldn't say no. Now, because of her mistake, the future of the world is at risk. Frank is a klutz. His grandmother claims he is descended from ancient heroes and can be anything he wants to be, but he doesn't see it. He doesn't even know who his father is. He keeps hoping Apollo will claim him, because the only thing he is good at is archery-although not good enough to help the Fifth Cohort win at war games. His big and bulky physique makes him feel like a clumsy ox, especially in front of Hazel, his closest friend at camp. He trusts her completely-enough, even, to share the secret he holds close to his heart. Featuring a faithful adaptation by Robert Venditti, and incredible artwork by Antoine Dod and Orpheus Collar, Rick Riordan's blockbuster book comes to life in The Son of Neptune, The Graphic Novel.

Rick Riordan - Griechische ​Heldensagen
Warum ​braucht Perseus eine Umarmung? Was hat Herkules angestellt? Und wer schlug Medusa den Kopf ab? Noch einmal öffnet Percy Jackson die Büchse der Pandora. Und dieses Mal bringt er die tragischen Ereignisse, ruhmreichen Taten und kühnen Abenteuer der griechischen Helden auf den Tisch. In bester Percy-Manier erzählt er urkomisch und kenntnisreich von Herkules, Orpheus und Co. und lässt dabei keine Frage unbeantwortet. Ein waghalsig-komisches Leseabenteuer!

Rick Riordan - The ​Titan's Curse
In ​this installment, Riordan continues to enliven ancient mythology with wit, contemporary staging, and teenage heroics. Percy Jackson is now 14, a bit older and wiser, yet still entangled with the Fates. Friends, monsters, dysfunctional gods, and the romantic stirrings of all things natural and mythological are encountered. His good friend, if oft-time rival, Annabeth (daughter of Athena) is missing, as is Artemis, goddess of the hunt. Joined by best buddy Grover-the-goat-boy and an argumentative array of accomplices, Percy sets off to fulfill, and hopefully foil, the foreboding prophecy of the Oracle. Plagued by ominous dreams, thwarted by hideous monsters, and challenged by conflicting partnerships, the search party's success hinges on unlikely unity. The droll pitch is teen-perfect, as when Apollo heats up the scene by arriving in his fire-red Maserati, wearing jeans, a sleeveless T-shirt, and loafers. 'Wow,' Thalia muttered, 'Apollo is hot.' 'He's the sun god,' I said. 'That's not what I meant.' Intricate prophecies and relationships are neatly braided into the adventurous plot. Teachers will cheer for Percy Jackson and the Olympians as they inspire students to embrace Greek mythology and score the ultimate Herculean challenge: getting kids to read. All in all, a winner of Olympic proportions and a surefire read-aloud.

Rick Riordan - Robert Venditti - The ​Lost Hero

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.

Rick Riordan - The ​Throne of Fire
Ever ​since the gods of Ancient Egypt were unleashed in the modern world, Carter Kane and his sister Sadie have been in trouble. As descendants of the House of Life, the Kanes have some powers at their command, but the devious gods haven't given them much time to master their skills at Brooklyn House, which has become a training ground for young magicians. And now their most threatening enemy yet - the chaos snake Apophis - is rising. If they don't prevent him from breaking free in a few days' time, the world will come to an end. In other words, it's a typical week for the Kane family. To have any chance of battling the Forces of Chaos, the Kanes must revive the sun god Ra. But that would be a feat more powerful than any magician has ever accomplished. First they have to search the world for the three sections of the Book of Ra, then they have to learn how to chant its spells. Oh, and did we mention that no one knows where Ra is exactly? Narrated in two different wisecracking voices, featuring a large cast of new and unforgettable characters, and with adventures spanning the globe, this second installment in the Kane Chronicles is nothing short of a thrill ride.
