THE LIGHTNING THIEF

The Lightning Thief is a new book and cerise that I have started. This book is really goodfrom where I am at. The reason I like this book is because it is a book about Greek and Latin mythology. The book is about this boy named Percy Jackson. He is an orphan how lost his mom in a fight against a half human half bull. Now he is in this cap called Half Blood Camp where kids like him are sent, different kids are sent.

Now I know that a lot of people know about this book and I hate to bore somebody how has already read the book but it just happened to be the book I am reading.

The Lightning Thief

Some time ago somebody, more like everybody, recommended this book to me I finished the last series of "Inkheart" so then I just picked it up and read a couple of pages and got totally sucked in to the story.

Rick Riordan is a total genius. I can not wait to read the rest of his series, then another of his. I am only on like the 40th page and I cannot stop there, no way.

The book the Lightning Thief is a mix of adventure and exiting demons and monsters waiting to suck up Percy in his adventure. Percy being a eager boy for a little excitement outside his life waiting for the right time to turn around his life from blowing buses up with a canon to being at his house for a change.

I hope as I read on something even more exciting will happen! (If even possible) Although those three old woman were creepy Percy made the right decision by running from his friend I would if they were coming after me.

The Lightning Theif

The book The Lightning Thief is the first book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. Its about a boy named Percy Jackson who finds out who his dad is and goes on a quest to find Zeus's missing lightning bolt and bring it back to him.


Its all about Greek mythology. I suggest you lean about the Greek gods and goddesses before you read the book so you can understand it more. I liked how they mixed fiction and non-fiction together so I learned somethings about Greek mythology. I went to Greece last summer and learned all about Greek mythology but in the book I learned still a lot of stuff so you get a lot of information. I really really like the book so far but for me it takes along time to read because i want to get every little detail. If you do read the book you should probably read it slow because there's lots of detail you can miss.


I'm really enjoying this book and I hope you will too.

The Lightning Thief

The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan is the first book out of the series of Percy Jackson and The Olympians. This book has Greek gods, satyrs, hell hounds, furies, etc. This book is about Percy Jackson finding out his father is a Greek god, Poseidon. Percy must go on a quest to find out who stole Zeus' lightning bolt and bring it back to him.


I can not stop reading this book! If you like action and Greek myths, you will LOVE this book like I do. You really get hooked in and you can not stop reading! You feel like your really in the book because Rick Riordan (the author) really describes everything. My Two advices to you is learn a little about the Greek gods before you read this book and do not judge this book by its cover. When I first saw this book I said to myself, wow this book looks boyish and bad. But after I read twenty pages I said to myself, Oh my god! This book is SO good! Everything else is have fun and enjoy the book!


P.S. Rick Riordan is the best author ever!

The Lightning Thief

I'm not really far in this book, but what I can say about it is that the first thing it says is "I didn't want to be a half-blood." First, I'm thinking to myself, "What in the heck is a half-blood?" Is a half-blood like half human and half another creature? The book is a really good book, but when they start talking about mythology it's a little confusing. When I read this book I'm always wondering things. For example, "what does this word mean? Or, "How do I pronounce these unusual names?" I would rate this book an 8 because I'm not far in the book, so I don't know much about it yet.

I just felt that I absolutely had to post on this book. For starters, I had a lot of bad feelings for it when I opened up the cover. Even though everyone gave it such great reviews, I still had this little and quite annoying voice in my head that was saying, "This book is going to be really cheesy, you're going to hate it, this is a very bad idea." I'm not sure exactly what caused this, I just had that feeling. I started off on the very first couple of pages thinking it was mediocre. There was a hint of plot, a dash of characters, and a pinch of vocabulary. But as I continued it was like the book reached out it's arms and pulled me into it's story. When it would say something about a Greek god that I didn't understand, I would let myself puzzle over it for a little while, but then the book would answer my questions. Who is Athena? Why was she important? What the heck does she have to do with this at all? Why am I asking so many questions? I still have not finished this book, I still have high expectations.
