Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief is the first bestselling book in Rick Riordan's phenomenally successful Percy Jackson series - now with a new cover look. Half boy. Half God. ALL Hero. Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood. I never asked to be the son of a Greek God. I was just a normal kid, going to school, playing basketball, skateboarding. The usual. Until I accidentally vaporized my maths teacher. Now I spend my time battling monsters and generally trying to stay alive. This is the one where Zeus, God of the Sky, thinks I've stolen his lightning bolt - and making Zeus angry is a very bad idea.

"This was one of the series I devoured in my teenage years, and that I've enjoyed rereading just as much in adulthood. One thing I always tell people, when recommending this series, is that the author does an amazing job of writing in his characters' voices. As they age, grow, and experience adventures through the series, the maturity they begin to show is evident. Fantastic series. "
