Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. In the book, Percy goes to Yancy academy, but just where is this boarding school located?

Answer: New York

It clearly states on the first page of the novel that Yancy academy is a "private school for troubled kids in upstate New York".
2. Mr Brunner is Percy's favourite teacher at Yancy, but little did we know that he was going to turn out to be a major character in the book. Who did he turn out to be?

Answer: Chiron

Mr Brunner is introduced again as Chiron in Chapter 5 which is also when we first meet Dionysus. They are playing cards together.
3. Annabeth is the daughter of whom?

Answer: Athena

She is a daughter of Athena, which is why Percy calls her "Wise Girl".
4. Who was really the lightning thief?

Answer: Luke

Luke reveals in the last chapter of the book that it was he who stole the items Percy was accused of stealing.
5. Which items were stolen by the lightning thief?

Answer: The Master Bolt and the Helm of Darkness

Once they go and see Hades, our heroes soon realise that not only the Master Bolt was stolen, but the Helm of Darkness was too.
6. Percy's sword is called "Anaklusmos". What does that translate to?

Answer: Riptide

Percy himself translates it to Riptide after receiving it from Chiron just before they go on their quest.
7. The prophecy stated: "you shall go west, and face the god that has turned" Who was this traitorous god?

Answer: Ares

Ares was the god who had turned, which is odd because I thought there was supposed to be honour in war.
8. Our heroes enter a garden gnome emporium during their adventure. They end up fighting for their lives, but just who or what did they meet there?

Answer: Medusa

They went into Auntie EM's garden gnome emporium. Percy was just a little bit late realising that Auntie Em literally meant Auntie M as in Medusa. They got out of there after killing her and continued on their dangerous quest.
9. When Percy jumps out of the Gateway Arch, a messenger from his father appears in the water. When she calls him brave, to whom does he think she is talking?

Answer: The Catfish

In chapter 14, the messenger talks to Percy, and after she leaves, he thinks about what she had said. That is when he says that she was either talking to him or that Catfish.
10. Near the start of the novel, we are introduced to "Smelly" Gabe. He is Percy's stepfather. However, what is his last name?

Answer: Ugliano

In chapter 3, Percy describes his mother's life story briefly and tells us that Gabe was nice for the first 30 seconds that they had met. He also tells us that his mother prefers to go by the name of Jackson.
