Summary: 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. That's when things really started going wrong. Now I spend my time fighting with swords, battling monsters with my friends 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. Can Percy find the lightning bolt before a fully fledged war of the gods erupts?

Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief is a thrilling adventure story where Percy Jackson has finally found out that he has inherited powers from Poseidon, his dad. There are thrilling adventure scenes while his uncle Zeus thinks he stole his all powerful lightning bolt, Percy has to get it back before it is too late! I rate this book a 5 out of 5 for its thrilling chase scenes and its exciting discoveries along the way. I would recommend this book for 10-13 year old's as it is fun, exciting and dangerous.

I liked it because it's a thriller book and I also like it because it's also on movie. You would like it if you like thriller books and movies. It's about a kid named Percy Jackson. He has a normal life going to school. Then he finds out that he is the son of one of the 3 big gods Poseidon and his brothers hades and Zeus. He is on a quest to find his mother who got abducted by a Minotaur and got taken to the underworld. He has to find 3 pearls when he needs to leave the underworld they will teleport him where he wants. He also has to find zeus’s thunderbolt before the summer solstice otherwise there will be war.
