Though the Greek and Roman crewmembers of the Argo II" have made
progress in their many quests, they still seem no closer to
defeating the earth mother, Gaea. Her giants have risen-all of
them-and they're stronger than ever. They must be stopped before
the Feast of Spes, when Gaea plans to have two demigods sacrificed
in Athens. She needs their blood-the blood of Olympus-in order to
wake.
The demigods are having more frequent visions of a terrible battle
at Camp Half-Blood. The Roman legion from Camp Jupiter, led by
Octavian, is almost within striking distance. Though it is tempting
to take the Athena Parthenos to Athens to use as a secret weapon,
the friends know that the huge statue belongs back on Long Island,
where it might" be able to stop a war between the two camps.
The Athena Parthenos will go west; the Argo II" will go east. The
gods, still suffering from multiple personality disorder, are
useless. How can a handful of young demigods hope to persevere
against Gaea's army of powerful giants? As dangerous as it is to
head to Athens, they have no other option. They have sacrificed too
much already. And if Gaea wakes, it is game over.

Not so long ago, maths problems had to be solved with pencil and paper, post delivered by postman, and files were stored in paper folders and metal cabinets. But three women, Betty Snyder, Jean Jennings, and Kay McNulty knew there could be a better way. During World War II, people hoped ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer), one of the earliest computers, could help with the war effort. With little guidance, no instructions, and barely any access to the machine itself, Betty, Jean, and Kay used mathematics, electrical engineering, logic, and common sense to command a computer as large as a room and create the modern world. The machine was like Betty, requiring outside-the-box thinking, like Jean, persistent and consistent, and like Kay, no mistakes, every answer perfect. Today computers are all around us, performing every conceivable task, thanks, in large part, to Betty, Jean, and Kay's pioneering work. Instructions Not Included is their story. This fascinating chapter in history is brought to life with vivid prose by Tami Lewis Brown and Debbie Loren Dunn and with striking illustrations by Chelsea Beck. Detailed back matter including historical photos provides a closer look.
