Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book Two: Sea of Monsters Disney+ Tie in Edition

 
　　波西．傑克森的七年級生活在平靜中悠悠渡過，真是令人感到很意外。原本波西與同學們只是要打一場無害的躲避球比賽，到最後竟演變成一場死亡遊戲，還有一幫醜陋的食人族巨無霸參一腳。
 
　　因為格羅佛與波西之間的「共感連結」，波西得知好友有難了，此時的混血營也遭遇了空前浩劫。於是波西與夥伴安娜貝斯和「怪胎」兄弟泰森私自踏上尋找金羊毛的冒險旅程。
 
　　《妖魔之海》是波西傑克森第二集，波西和他的朋友們必須到妖魔之海出任務，以便拯救面臨危機的混血營，但在出任務之前，波西會先發現關於他家族的一個天大祕密……知道這個祕密之後，波西不免開始質疑，究竟身為海神波塞頓的兒子是一件光榮的事，抑或只是一個殘酷的玩笑？
 
系列特色

★豐沛的「想像力」是一切創意的源頭：
　　哈利波特作者J.K.羅琳在哈佛大學演講時曾說：「世界不見得需要魔術來改變，但適度的想像力是非常重要的……」〈波西傑克森〉運用了希臘神話帶給讀者的無限「想像空間」和「力量感」，將故事設定在現代，以節奏明快、角色鮮明、幽默、驚奇、懸疑的流暢敘事手法，將讀者帶進欲罷不能的奇幻冒險文學饗宴中。
 
★透過閱讀培養「人格力」：
　　波西傑克森在凡人和眾神的世界裡，一路驚險穿梭進出，追尋自我認同。旅程中一路伴隨著親情的溫馨、牽絆與割捨，朋友間的信任與背叛，面臨險惡處境時的勇氣與膽識，還有戰爭與夢想、正義與邪惡……年輕讀者從中看到了冒險犯難、勇於追夢、正直仁厚的英雄人格特質。
 
★輕鬆享受精采小說，涵養新時代少年「文學力」：
　　〈波西傑克森〉系列不只是好看的奇幻小說，也是輕鬆了解希臘神話的最佳入門。神話是西洋文學的核心源起，除了豐富奇詭的幻想及對人生問題的探索外，也反映了早期人類對自然的觀念，可說是人類文化的重要遺產。本書以高明的創作手法和情節設計，將個性鮮明的小說人物與神話角色做了最巧妙的融合與描繪，趣味十足且深刻淋漓，大大激發讀者對希臘神話的好奇和進一步了解探究的動機，確是涵養新時代少年「文學力」的最佳敲門磚。

When Thalia’s tree is mysteriously poisoned, the magical borders of Camp Half-Blood begin to fail. Now Percy and his friends have just days to find the only magic item powerful to save the camp before it is overrun by monsters. The catch: they must sail into the Sea of Monsters to find it. Along the way, Percy must stage a daring rescue operation to save his old friend Grover, and he learns a terrible secret about his own family, which makes him question whether being the son of Poseidon is an honor or simply a cruel joke.

Whether you are new to the world of Percy Jackson or a longtime fan, this tie-in paperback edition with full-color photos from the Disney+ series is a must-have for your library.

Rick Riordan, dubbed ＂storyteller of the gods＂ by Publishers Weekly, is the author of five New York Times #1 best-selling series with millions of copies sold across the globe, including Percy Jackson and the Olympians, now a hit live-action show on Disney+. He expanded on that first series with two more: the Heroes of Olympus and the Trials of Apollo, both of which cleverly combine Greek and Roman gods and heroes with his beloved modern characters. Rick also tackled the ancient Egyptian gods in the magic-filled Kane Chronicles trilogy, and Norse mythology in Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard. His most recent books are The Court of the Dead: A Nico di Angelo Adventure, which he cowrote with Mark Oshiro, and Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Wrath of the Triple Goddess. In addition, Rick is the publisher of an imprint at Disney-Hyperion, Rick Riordan Presents, dedicated to spotlighting other authors of highly entertaining fiction based on world cultures and mythologies. He lives in Boston, Massachusetts, with his wife, Becky. Follow his news on RickRiordan.com.
