From Percy Jackson: Camp Half-Blood Confidential: Your Real Guide to the Demigod Training Camp (Trials of Apollo)

by Rick Riordan (Author)

From Percy Jackson: Camp Half-Blood Confidential: Your Real Guide to the Demigod Training Camp (Trials of Apollo)
Reading Level: 6th − 7th Grade
In response to an awful camp orientation video created by the god Apollo, Percy Jackson and other residents of Camp Half-Blood answer such questions as "What is this place?" and "Do I get to keep the T-shirt?" Newbies can check out the section on the Divine Cabins, read up on Magical Landmarks, and consult the chapter of Training Arenas. But Camp Half-Blood Confidential explores much more than just the buildings and grounds. It includes info that can only be learned from those who live there. For instance, campers do not always co-exist in peace and harmony. The camp is not run with superior efficiency. Prophecies do not flow forth with great regularity. Sprinkled throughout are stories from heroes who have called Camp Half-Blood home or just passed through on their way to places unknown. Chiron himself introduces the book with a brief history of training based on his millennia of experience. And, of course, there are divine words of wisdom from the god Apollo himself, because . . . well, because the demigod authors would prefer not to be struck down, thank you very much.

I really enjoyed how funny and semi-realistic the author made this.
