In the first book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, we meet Percy Jackson, the half-son of a Greek God. He is sent to Camp Half-Blood, where he learns more about his past, about his father, and learns that the fate of Olympus is in his hands - someone has stolen one of Zeus' lightning bolts and Percy must find it! The book is a great adventure and is part one of a series - great for children who are just getting into the joys of reading and are looking for something that will continue to go on and on. It will hold their attention and make them excited for more. Those who are fans of the Harry Potter series, of Fablehaven, of A Series of Unfortunate Events will enjoy Percy Jackson and the Olympians, especially the Lightning Thief.
