Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief (Book 1)
By Rick Riordan
Harry Hartog's review
This series means so much to me, and despite being published nearly 20 years ago, still holds up. In no other series is the main character your favourite character- but Percy is witty, scrappy, has ADHD, dyslexia, and a huge problem with authority that makes him adored and relatable to many. Great for kids who love adventure stories and want to learn about the interesting world of Greek Mythology. - Maddy, Harry Hartog Burnside

HALF BOY - HALF GOD - ALL HERO.
Look, I never asked to be the son of a Greek god. I was just a normal kid. . . until I accidentally vaporized my maths teacher.
Percy Jackson is having a bad week. His life has gone from totally normal to monsters-from-Greek-mythology-randomly-appearing kind of strange. Worse still, the king of the gods thinks Percy has stolen his all-powerful lightning bolt - and it seems making Zeus angry is a very bad idea.
Now Percy and his friends have just ten days to catch the true lightning thief and stop all-out war from erupting on Mount Olympus. . .
What could possibly go wrong?
