Percy Jackson and the Olympians - the lighting thief


I'm read Percy Jackson and the Olympians - the lighting thief this is the first book of the series of Percy Jackson and the Olympians there are 5 in the series. I have read up to the third book the titan's curse. its all about Greek Mythology and quest of hero and there adventures like Hercules or Perceus, these are two demigods(half-human half-god) sons of Zeus . In this book the heroes are demi-gods as well.

in the first one it starts off with meeting a 12 year old kid with ADHD and dyslexia. he is constantly kicked out of every school he attends. and as he comes close to finishing his first year of school with out getting in trouble his world gets turned upside down and get into more trouble and he ever thought possible.

Him and his two friends, Annabeth and Grover, have to travel across the USA in search of finding Zeus's Master bolt. he'll have to leave all he thought the world was like behind and take up this epic adventure in hope of stopping a war of the gods.

This high action book makes the adventure leap out of the book and hit you in the face. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for a high action book or is into Greek Mythology.
