The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians #1)

What if the gods of Olympus were real—and they were angry with you?

Percy Jackson never expected to find out he’s the son of Poseidon, one of the Big Three Greek gods. But when he’s accused of stealing Zeus’s all-powerful lightning bolt, his world turns upside down. With monsters on his trail and a war brewing among the gods, Percy has just ten days to find the real thief, clear his name, and prevent a catastrophe that could destroy the world.

Join Percy and his friends—wisecracking satyr Grover and brilliant Annabeth, daughter of Athena—as they embark on a dangerous quest across America, battling ancient monsters, uncovering hidden secrets, and discovering that being a demigod is way more dangerous than it sounds.

Perfect for fans of adventure, humor, and Greek mythology, The Lightning Thief is the explosive start to Rick Riordan’s beloved Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. Get ready for an unforgettable journey filled with gods, monsters, and one very sarcastic hero!
