Daniel Jackson and the gods -- book #1, The Prophecy Thief

Look, I'm gonna keep you posted about this book I'm writing. I figure a chapter a week!

Chapter 1: I figure out I don't belong to my own family.

Look, if you think being a halfblood is cool, you're wrong. Big Time. If you find yourself in this book, close it immediately.

It all started when this weird person came to visit me at lunch. She said she knew my brother, and I said, "Caleb?" and she said, "No. No, don't you know about your twin brother Percy?" My mouth dropped open immediately.

"Who is Percy?"

"Percy Jackson," she said.

"No, he's just a book character," I said.

"Really? Well, I better introduce myself then. My name is Thalia Grace. Chiron sent me. Usually we don't do this, but he sent me out to tell you that you're a halfblood."

"This is bad," I said. "From what I've read of Percy Jackson, I'm probably gonna get killed."
