1. Introductory Paragraph
If you have read the Percy Jackson and the
Olympians books, you know that Percy has been
through a lot and found out that he can do a lot.
He has learned how to find his way around the
world of men and the world of of gods and
monsters. He has made many friends in the
world of gods, and he has learned to control his
considerable powers. However, in Rick
Riordan’s newest book, The Son of Neptune,
Percy Jackson starts out lost, lonely, and unsure
of himself.
2. Body Paragraph #1
First Percy is lost because he has
amnesia. He had awakened in the Wolf
House two months before , not
knowing who or where he was. He has
been wandering around California, not
even knowing if he has ever been there
before. His “homing radar” is telling
him that he is close to the end of his
journey, but he can not figure out how
that can be.
3. Body Paragraph #2
Second, he is lonely because he is
not with and does not really remember
his friends. He does feel a vague
sadness about Annabeth. He can
remember her, but this memory is
“frustratingly dim.” Also, as he does
find a group that could be his friends,
he discovers an ages-old rivalry, and
these new “friends” seem to just want
him dead.
4. Body Paragraph #3
Third, he is unsure of himself. He has
learned during the past few days that his body
can take more than is normal, but he does not
know how much. He does not know if he
would die, or be seriously hurt, or be
unharmed if he fell eighty feet, trying to get
away from the Gorgons. In addition, his
internal radar is telling him he’s found the
place he is supposed to be, but also that it is
dangerous, enemy territory. He does not
know or remember enough to decide which
part of the radar to follow. He is unsure of
himself.
5. Concluding Paragraph
As you finished the earlier Percy
Jackson books, you probably thought
Percy would be helped by all that he
had learned and experienced.
However, even through Percy has
been through many adventures
before, amnesia has left him lost,
lonely, and unsure of himself at the
beginning of Riordan’s latest, The Son
of Neptune.
