Instead, Grover goes missing, the tree that ensures the magical boundary keeping monsters out has been poisoned, and Percy has a new half-brother, Tyson (Daniel Diemer).<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">While a new character sets out to find what&#8217;s needed to heal the tree, Percy, Annabeth, and Tyson leave camp to find Grover. What follows is a journey as action packed as the last, including\u00a0a trip to the Bermuda triangle, the return of Luke, and the revival of a sunken pirate ship, in addition to new monsters and Kronos&#8217;s continued efforts to regain power.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">If the book is followed closely, which seems likely based on casting announcements, two new demigods from the Big Three will appear, though only one is claimed by Poseidon. It presents a shift in who the Great Prophecy could be about, and gives Kronos more opportunities to cause the fall of Olympus.
