Review: The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book 1) by Rick Riordan

The Lightning Thief is the first book in the Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan. After a field trip gone wrong, Percy Jackson finds out that he is a demigod. He now has to go to Camp Half-Blood and be trained on how to stay alive while facing monsters from the darkest myths. Things take a turn for the worse when Zeus' lightning bolt is stolen all the evidence points to Percy, starting him on a quest to get it back.

I loved this book, and it has also been adapted to a movie, so bonus points. It's a fast read and it's kind of short, so pre-teens would like it as well as teenagers. If you are interested in Greek gods and mythology this book is one you should check out. If you saw the movie and like it you should definitely give the book a shot.
