Sometimes it feels like Oddonis can’t do anything right. Especially compared to his literally perfect twin brother, Adonis. But this time, Oddonis has really messed up by accidentally turning his father, the all-powerful king of the gods, Zeus, into a giant baby. Now, it’s up to Oddonis to assemble a team of his odd friends - Mathena, Gaseous, and Puneous - and journey to the underworld to get the curse reversed. Along the way, Oddonis will have to overcome a series of dangerous obstacles, his obnoxious brother, his own self-doubt, and the horrible scents of his best friend.

Oddonis and his misfit friends don’t exactly love competition and they aren’t exactly athletes. So they’re definitely not excited when their middle school gets challenged to a sports competition by the Roman middle school on the other side of Mount Olympus. It’s bad enough that the Greek Odds have to compete against their Roman twins, but when Zeus and his Roman counterpart, Jupiter, get a little too involved, the Greek and Roman kids end up in a competition over who gets to run the whole mountain.

Having changed the way we look at fairy tales in their last book, Karrie and Jon have turned to these ancient stories to see what magic their marvellous gender-swapping machine can work on them.

Percy Jackson is inmiddels veertien en een beetje wijzer. Wanneer zowel zijn vriendin Annabeth als de godin Artemis verdwijnt, wordt er een zoektocht op touw gezet. Haast is geboden: het orakel heeft voorzien dat de godin in ieder geval vóór de winterzonnewende terug moet zijn, want haar invloed zal doorslaggevend zijn in de oorlog tegen de Titanen. Percy gaat op pad met zijn beste vriend Grover en een bont gezelschap. Hij wordt geplaagd door onheilspellende dromen. Het orakel heeft namelijk nog meer voorspeld: één van hen zal het niet overleven.
