The Lightning Thief is the first book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. It is a true staple for anyone who loves Greek mythology and fantasy. In the beginning of the book, we see that Percy’s biggest problem is getting kicked out of his school. This later becomes extraneous when he figures out he is related to the Greek mythological gods. And the worst part? Percy is accused of stealing Zeus’s master lightning bolt. New to Camp Half-blood and the demi-god life, he must find the master bolt and return it to Mount Olympus while risking the outburst of a world war. Furthermore, solving the riddle of the camp Oracle. This book is an amazing read with lots of action and adventure. I loved the writing style and perspective in this series. The characters are also incredibly real and well-written. This is truly the perfect book for anyone who wants to get lost in a world of mythology and adventure. 5/5 stars, Nevaeh, 13, SAPL Read It & Review Contributor
