Presented in a first-person, humorous but alarming tone, Percy describes how “bad things” repeatedly happen to him, especially on school field trips. The narrative frames his troubled history at Yancy Academy and sets the stage for a Manhattan excursion with his Latin teacher, promising trouble when ancient Greek and Roman artifacts become entangled with his dangerous identity.","Copyright © 2005 by Rick Riordan All rights reserved.

Believe whatever lie your mom or dad told you about your birth, and try to lead a normal life .  \nBeing a half-blood is dangerous . It’s scary. Most of the time, it gets you killed in painful, nasty ways.  \nIf you’re a normal kid, reading this because you think it’s fiction, great. Read on . I envy you for being able to believe that none of this ever happened.  \nBut if you recognize yourself in these pages—if you feel something stirring inside—stop reading immediately. You might be one of us . And once you know that, it’s only a matter of time before they sense it too, and they’ll come for you .  \nDon’t say I didn’t warn you .  \nMy name is Percy Jackson.  \nI’m twelve years old. Until a few months ago, I was a boarding student at Yancy Academy, a private school for troubled kids in upstate New York.  \nAm I a troubled kid?  \nYeah. You could say that.  \nI could start at any point in my short miserable life to prove it, but things really started going bad last May, when our sixth-grade class took a field trip to Manhattan— twenty-eight mental-case kids and two teachers on a yellow school bus, heading to the Metropolitan Museum of Art to look at ancient Greek and Roman stuff.  \nI know—it sounds like torture . Most Yancy field trips were .  \nBut Mr. Brunner, our Latin teacher, was leading this trip, so I had hopes.  \nMr. Brunner was this middle-aged guy in a motorized wheelchair. He had thinning hair and a scruffy beard and a frayed tweed jacket, which always smelled like coffee . You wouldn’t think he’d be cool, but he told stories and jokes and let us play games in class. He also had this awesome collection of Roman armor and weapons, so he was the only teacher whose class didn’t put me to sleep.  \nI hoped the trip would be okay. At least, I hoped that for once I wouldn’t get in trouble.  \nBoy, was I wrong.  \nSee, bad things happen to me on field trips. Like at my fifthgrade school, when we went to the Saratoga battlefield, I had this accident with a Revolutionary War cannon . I wasn’t aiming for the school bus, but of course I got expelled anyway. And before that, at my fourth-grade school, when we took a behind-the-scenes tour of the Marine World shark pool, I sort of hit the wrong lever on the
