We want you to write another book about the Ancient Greek heroes! It’ll be so cool!’  \nAnd I was like, ‘Guys, I’m dyslexic. It’s hard enough for me to read books.’  \nThen they promised me a year ’s supply of free pepperoni pizza, plus all the blue jelly beans I could eat.  \nI sold out.  \nI guess it’s cool. If you’re looking to fight monsters yourself, these stories might help you avoid some common mistakes – like staring Medusa in the face, or buying a used mattress from any dude named Crusty.  \nBut the best reason to read about the old Greek heroes is to make yourself feel better. No matter how much you think your life sucks, these guys and gals had it worse. They totally got the short end of the Celestial stick.  \nBy the way, if you don’t know me, my name is Percy Jackson. I’m a modern-day demigod – the son of Poseidon. I’ve had some bad experiences in my time, but the heroes I’m going to tell you about were the original oldschool hard-luck cases. They boldly screwed up where no one had screwed up before.  \nLet’s pick twelve of them. That should be plenty. By the time you finish reading about how miserable their lives were – what with the poisonings, the betrayals, the mutilations, the murders, the psychopathic family members and the flesh-eating barnyard animals – you should feel better about your own existence. If that doesn’t work, then I don’t know what will.  \nSo get your flaming spear. Put on your lion-skin cape. Polish your shield and make sure you’ve got arrows in your quiver. We’re going back about four thousand years to decapitate monsters, save some kingdoms, shoot a few gods in the butt, raid the Underworld and steal loot from evil people.  \nThen, for dessert, we’ll die painful tragic deaths. Ready? Sweet. Let’s do this.  \n[OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com)","cbCaiiGjxjgIRrEc","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiGjxjgIRrEc","pdf",2468546,398,"English","# Introduction\n## Table of Contents (Hero Chapters)\n## Afterword","[{\"question\":\"Why does Percy Jackson decide to write this book?\",\"answer\":\"The publisher asks him to write about ancient Greek heroes, and Percy agrees after being promised a year’s supply of free pepperoni pizza and many blue jelly beans.\"},{\"question\":\"How does Percy say these stories can help the reader?\",\"answer\":\"He argues they can help you feel better by showing that the old Greek heroes had worse lives, with plenty of misfortune and danger.\"},{\"question\":\"What does Percy say the reader will do in the adventure?\",\"answer\":\"The reader will join the journey back about four thousand years to fight monsters, save kingdoms, confront gods, raid the Underworld, and steal loot—followed by painful tragic outcomes.\"}]","Percy Jackson and the Greek Heroes - Introduction | PDF",1792672644,613]
