SYNOPSIS (Caution-Spoilers)
Percy Jackson is just your regular troubled teenager, until a school trip to the museum with his best friend, Grover, takes an unexpected turn… Mrs Dodds, the sinister substitute, reveals herself as an evil winged fury and attacks him!

However, Mr Brunner insists none of it really happened and tells Percy he will be expelled for his behaviour. At home, Percy’s mother, Sally, listens to his excuses and suggests a beach trip to escape his smelly stepfather, Gabe, and talk about Percy’s true father. Suddenly, a menacing Minotaur ambushes them, Sally vanishes, and an unconscious Percy dreams about a strange man in a Hawaiian shirt who gives him a seashell…
