The Heroes of Olympus series follows the common pattern of a hero’s journey, as the teenage demigods must leave their familiar world (home camps in the United States) and embark on a quest to battle formidable enemies in a new, unfamiliar world (ancient lands in Rome and Greece). They are also faced with a major obstacle in the form of Gia, who wants to destroy the world, and must ultimately return home with newfound knowledge and unite the two previously separate demigod communities.
