Percy Jackson & The Lighting Theft by Rick Riordan

Summary:

Percy Jackson is a good kid, but he can’t seem to focus on his schoolwork or control his temper. And lately, being away at boarding school is only getting worse – Percy could have sworn his pre-algebra teacher turned into a monster and tried to kill him. When Percy’s mom finds out, she knows it’s time that he knew the truth about where he came from, and that he go to the one place he’ll be safe. She sends Percy to Camp Half Blood, a summer camp for demigods (on Long Island), where he learns that the father he never knew is Poseidon, God of the Sea. Soon a mystery unfolds and together with his friends—one a satyr and the other the demigod daughter of Athena – Percy sets out on a quest across the United States to reach the gates of the Underworld (located in a recording studio in Hollywood) and prevent a catastrophic war between the gods.

My Review:

It been soo long since I read Percy Jackson series. When I saw the trailer for the new TV series. I knew I must reread the books again. Once I dig them out. Lucky for new readers they have awesome boxsets and new covers of the books.

Percy Jackson is not your typical kid. He may enjoy kid stuff, go to school and have a supportive mother. On his dad side tells a different when he discovers he is a half blood of a god. Now everyone seems to want him dead, when monsters starts attacking him and his family. He must figure out who he is before it’s to late.

I also have thing for Greek mythology books. This series is action packed and the characters grow up so much at the end. Plus it a little educational for readers. Both young and old readers will love this series.

Here the trailer and it gives me chills. Looks so much better then the bad movies they made.

Happy Reading!!!!
