After being kicked out of just about every other boarding
school in New York, Percy Jackson has to go to camp half blood with the other
Demi-gods. Before Percy realizes his real power in the world, he goes through a
huge realization of what his life hides behind the scenes. He first encounters
a mythological creature when on a field trip with his class to the Greek
history museum. His math teacher Mrs. Dodds turns into a gargoyle and attacks
him.
The elaborately crafted novel by Rick Riordan “Percy Jacksonand the Olympians : The Lightning Thief is an amazing book. Percy battles with
the troubles of the mythological creature encounters, and the burden that his
mother has been taken. Throughout the book, Percy ignites the power within him
that has been kept away for all this time. Percy discovers all of the secrets
about the world, and the dangers that lie ahead of him are more than he could
ever imagine.
Despite the fact that Percy is a little more naïve to the
idea of monsters being real at first, and a little more dialogue than expected,
this book is a great read. It makes you develop your perspective on the
characters and the aspects the story carries on. Percy Jackson and the
Olympians : The lighting thief is a great book for all ages, and a perfectly
constructed page turner, from the streets of New York, to the palaces of
Olympus
