Your Summer Book: Percy Jackson



Percy Jackson and The Olympians is a series of adventure books written by Rick Riordan. It all begins with the first book, The Lightening Thief, where Percy, a twelve year old dyslexic boy finds out he isn't as ordinary as he thought he was, but in fact is the son of Poseidon, the God of Sea. He then becomes friends with Grover, a satyr and Annabeth, daughter of Athena. 

There are five books in this series and they are incredibly well written, with some riveting plots and an abundance of Greek Mythological characters. So whether you think about Medusa or Zeus, they are all there, and play a role in this really written well series. 






This series would be perfect to read in your summer holidays, and is guaranteed to provide you with endless hours of fun, excitement and curiosity. The first book was adapted into a film titled Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief in 2010, which was commercially successful, but received mixed reviews. An adaptation of The Sea of Monsters, titled Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters, is due to be released in 2013.
