Talk:The Lost Hero

Characters` surnames?
Has Rick Riordan revealed the new character`s surnames? I haven`t read the first two chapters yet, so I don`t know yet. (I`m actually planning to wait to when the books come out to read it). If anyone knows the surnames of these charaters, feel free to add it to the article. Alec scheat (talk) 12:39, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
 * No, the surnames haven't been revealed yet. I believe we'll only know about them after release. And cross whatever you saw earlier, PJTF is here to help.-Mktsay123 (talk) 16:14, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I think that we should not mention anything about the characters` surnames or who their parents are, until the book is released. By doing that, it saves us from having to edit out original research. ~ Alec scheat (talk) 06:03, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Should it be mentioned that Jason names things in Roman rather than Greek? 134.192.134.191 (talk) 20:46, 23 August 2010 (UTC)Anonymous

The new characters full names are: Jason Grace, Piper McLean, and Leo Valdez. Hope that helps! Yoshi0333 (talk) 04:21, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes we should as this will make things pretty clear. Yuvna (talk) 13:45, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

Plot summary
I`m actually finding the summary a bit too long. How about shortening it? Any thoughts about it? ~ Alec scheat (talk) 03:53, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it is too long for a two chapter summary. Also, it contains a play-by-play feel, so it has to be rewritten if we are to push this article towards higher classes in the future. -Mktsay123 (talk) 10:37, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
 * To be honest, most of it will be rewritten when the book comes out. For now, I think it will do. ~ Alec scheat (talk) 00:47, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Is the part about Hera being captured true or false? (I haven't read the preview yet) --173.25.106.202 (talk) 15:21, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

I doubt its true, cuz I read the fist two chapters, and Hera isnt even mentioned, and wouldnt they have to go on a quest to find Percy??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.170.63.193 (talk) 22:08, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

Thinking about it, it's probably False, why would the tile be "The Lost Hero" if it's about Hera? --173.25.106.202 (talk) 22:44, 14 July 2010 (UTC)


 * I had to remove the references that went along with that part as it was a dead link. I haven`t actually read the preview yet, so I`m don`t know if its true or not, but in my opinion, the fact that it came with a dead link gives my the feeling that its not true. ~ Alec scheat (talk) 05:49, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

hey guys the lost hero isn't about percy, its about Jason, hes not literally lost hes lost like in his mind cuz he has no memories but it was hera who took it and she is trapped in a cage that she cant get out of and its up to Jason leo and piper to rescue her. she did the same thing to percy so he went on a quest and adventure with two other demigods that are part of the prophecy. so the summary is right. Jason is from the roman camp and was switched to camp half blood which is greek and percy was put to the roman camp... she did this so the roman and greek demigods can unite to beat the king of the giants and mother earth. if she hadn't taken their memory they would be a war in camp cuz the roman and greek demigods are mortal enemies to eachother and its up to the gods to keep them separate or their would be a second war. hera is a big part in this book cause if she didn't do this or try to do it which is a big risk the world would be destroyed and the gods will be destroyed by the giants who can only be defeated if the gods and demigods team up but zeus has closed off Olympus and its up to the seven demigods as said in the prophecy to show zeus hes wrong and to open Olympus back and defeat the giants and mother earth. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.255.21.223 (talk) 06:58, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

I was just rereading the end of the two chapters on Camphalfblood.com and I noticed it said that two teenagers were in the chariot. I think someone should add that for Annabeth, that she is a teenager a few years older that Jason. So that means shes probably 17 or 18 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.170.63.193 (talk) 20:37, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I don`t know if its be announced yet how long has past since the last book. I wouldn`t add anything about age until the book comes out. Alec scheat (talk) 03:31, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Ok, but in the book it does say shes a teenager —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.170.63.193 (talk) 23:42, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Percy is the Lost Hero. In Chapter two, Annabeth says he is missing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.97.235.14 (talk) 17:09, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

'''Hello. I'm the guy who put in Hera was captured. Go find the information as routed:'''
 * 1. Go visit http://catalog.loc.gov/ the Library of Congress Catalog.
 * 2. Search "The Lost Hero" under "Title Keyword".
 * 3. Go click on any one of the two results for Rick Riordan.
 * 4. Go look at the bar on top, and click "Subjects/Content".
 * 5. Look next to the text that says "Summary:" "Jason, Piper, and Leo, three students from a school for 'bad kids,' find themselves at Camp Half-Blood, where they learn that they are demigods and begin a quest to free Hera, who has been imprisoned by Mother Earth herself."

I'm new to Wikipedia, so please bear with me. At the time of this post, the book has been released and I'm about halfway through it at this point. Looking at the current Plot Summary, I believe it needs to be greatly updated now that the rest of the plot has been revealed. I was thinking about changing it when I have finished the book. Has anyone else gotten it yet? Please let me know so the Plot Summary can be updated. Yoshi0333 (talk) 06:27, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

I agree. It's too beginning-second for a middle-the end. Too, well, detailed for the beginning. It hasn't said the end. I have the book. 173.49.140.141 (talk) 17:42, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

In my account, I am giving this plot summary a MAKEOVER! Keep the first paragraph. 173.49.140.141 (talk) 18:00, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Hello again. I just finished the book. I realize that even though I won't be able to edit this section directly (far too much stuff on my hands) I am willing to answer any questions asked by someone else who is working on a revision to this section. I'll answer your questions to the best of my abilities. Thanks in advance! Yoshi0333 (talk) 04:36, 15 October 2010 (UTC) hey can someone write more of the plot and the end of the story

Some body added this beauty of a line "The story ends as suddenly a giant appears and apparently kills Leo. ". i've deleted it as it seemed to be a case of vandlism since i cant find any mention of it in the book. if it reappears can somebody report the author of the line for vandalism? thanking you Tca achintya (talk) 20:48, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

Guys this article isn’t about the two chapter preview or whatever, it’s about the whole book. Please read the whole book before asking questions.

Move "Origins" Section to "The Heroes of Olympus" page?
I think the Origins section fits better in the The Heroes of Olympus page. If no one disagrees, I'm going to move it. -Mktsay123 (talk) 07:14, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
 * It should be moved over, but kept here as well. It is fairly common for a book article first of it's series to have an origins section. Derild  49  21  ☼  13:23, 30 October 2010 (UTC)

GA?
The article is already C-class. What would be needed to make this into a WP:GA? Perseus, Son  of Zeus   16:30, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

Removal of background
I'm sorry for not stating this earlier but I had removed the "Background" section because, to me, it didn't seem to fit in at all and was just a quote with no real original text added and just seemed placed there at random. Maybe someone here can find a way to fit this information into another section of the article? Sureiyaa (talk) 02:29, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Also, the source provided led to the author's blogspot, so I searched through the entries to find the entry where he mentions Mad magazine and updated the source to lead to that instead of the blogspot page. Sureiyaa (talk) 02:37, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Actually, upon reading the entry, the author never mentions this book and the quote appears taken entirely our of context in the wikipedia article because it mentions only influences on the author's works as a whole and, to a lesser extent, his thoughts on mythology in general. Because of this, I will now remove the section. If anyone disagrees, please undo the edit and statehere why you believe it should stay. Sureiyaa (talk) 02:41, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Hey, I'm just a veiwer, but I wanted to say that Wikipedia has been my best friend for the past two years, and I owe too much to fit into a simple, "thank you!" so thats why I relly want you all to know how much Wikipedia means to me. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.4.164.148 (talk) 20:10, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
