Sea of Monsters is the second book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series by Riordan. The graphic novel is an adaptation of this, and its description is as follows:
Seventh grade has been surprisingly quiet for Percy Jackson. Not a single monster has set foot on his New York prep-school campus. But when an innocent game of dodgeball among Percy and his classmates turns into a death match against an ugly gang of cannibal giants, things get…well, ugly. And the unexpected arrival of his friend Annabeth brings more bad news: the magical borders that protect Camp Half-Blood have been poisoned by a mysterious enemy, and unless a cure is found, the only safe haven for demigods will be destroyed.
In the follow-up to the wildly popular The Lightning Thief: The Graphic Novel, Percy and his friends must journey into the Sea of Monsters to save their camp. But first, Percy will discover a stunning new secret about his family–one that makes him question whether being claimed as Poseidon’s son is an honor or simply a cruel joke.
Featuring a faithful adaptation by Robert Venditti, stunning artwork by Attila Futaki, and sumptuous colors by newcomer Tamas Gaspar, Rick Riordan’s blockbuster book comes to life in The Sea of Monsters, The Graphic Novel.
The cover case above depicts various images from the book; among them are heroes (Percy, Annabeth, and Grover) and some enemies (including the Stymphalian Birds and Polyphemus the Cyclops).
The graphic novel will not be released until July 2, 2013 but you can pre-order it on Amazon.
Back in September, we got a look at the actual cover of the graphic novel, which you can check out here.
