Twelve-year-old Percy Jackson is on the most dangerous quest of his life.  With the help of a satyr and a daughter of Athena, Percy must journey across the United States to catch a thief who has stolen the original weapon of mass destruction—Zeus’ master bolt.  Along the way, he must face a host of mythological enemies determined to stop him.  Most of all, he must come to terms with a father he has never known, and an Oracle that has warned him of betrayal by a friend.

I remember reading this in first grade and telling my mom: "Percy is so funny!"<br /><br />he is literally me

It’s so good it’s one of my favorite 

Percy Jackson non sapeva di essere destinato a grandi imprese prima di vedere la professoressa di matematica trasformarsi in una Furia per tentare di ucciderlo. Le creature della mitologia e gli dei dell'Olimpo, in realtà, non sono scomparsi ma si sono semplicemente trasferiti a New York. L'ultimo dei loro bisticci rischia di trascinare il mondo nel caos: qualcuno ha rubato la Folgore di Zeus e qualcuno dovrà ritrovarla entro dieci giorni. Sarà proprio Percy a dover indagare sull'innocenza di Poseidone, dio del mare e padre perduto, che l'ha generato con una donna mortale facendo di lui un semidio. Nuove gesta e antichi nemici lo aspettano, e non saranno solo lo sguardo di Medusa e i capricci degli dei a ostacolare la ricerca della preziosa refurtiva, ma le parole dell'Oracolo e il suo oscuro verdetto: un amico tradirà, e il suo gesto potrebbe essere fatale Gli dei dell'Olimpo sono ancora vivi.

Decided to read this again because I missed percabeth &lt;3

¿Qué pasaría si un día descubrieras que, en realidad, eres hijo de un dios griego que debe cumplir una misión secreta? Pues eso es lo que le sucede a Percy Jackson, que a partir de ese momento se dispone a vivir los acontecimientos más emocionantes de su vida. Expulsado de seis colegios, Percy padece dislexia y dificultades para concentrarse, o al menos ésa es la versión oficial. Objeto de burlas por inventarse historias fantásticas, ni siquiera él mismo acaba de creérselas hasta el día que los dioses del Olimpo le revelan la verdad: Percy es nada menos que un semidiós, es decir, el hijo de un dios y una mortal. Y como tal ha de descubrir quién ha robado el rayo de Zeus y así evitar que estalle una guerra entre los dioses. Para cumplir la misión contará con la ayuda de sus amigos Grover, un joven sátiro, y Annabeth, hija de Atenea. El ladrón del rayo da comienzo a la apasionante serie PERCY JACKSON Y LOS DIOSES DEL OLIMPO, un mundo secreto que los antiguos dioses griegos han recreado a nuestro alrededor en pleno siglo XXI.

Bueno, creo que no me ha gustado como a la mayoría de la gente, pero no ha estado mal. Los personajes me gustan y ns porque pero Annabeth no me cae del todo bien, pero es el primer libro obvio. LUKE yo ya sabia que tramaba algo en el momento en que pregunto desesperadamente en la gasolinera si Percy llevaba las botas que le había dado 😑

Percy Jackson is a good kid, but he can't seem to focus on his schoolwork or control his temper. And lately, being away at boarding school is only getting worse - Percy could have sworn his pre-algebra teacher turned into a monster and tried to kill him. When Percy's mom finds out, she knows it's time that he knew the truth about where he came from, and that he go to the one place he'll be safe. She sends Percy to Camp Half Blood, a summer camp for demigods (on Long Island), where he learns that the father he never knew is Poseidon, God of the Sea. Soon a mystery unfolds and together with his friends-one a satyr and the other the demigod daughter of Athena - Percy sets out on a quest across the United States to reach the gates of the Underworld (located in a recording studio in Hollywood) and prevent a catastrophic war between the gods.

Amazing story for teenagers to get into reading! Highly recommend

love, love, LOVE! I read a lot of this as an audiobook on bookbeat and i loved it so much!! got me back into greek mythology.

This whole series is why I basically learnt everything there is to know about Greek mythology (not (also, rookie move because this is a children’s book series that will explain everything you need to know about Greek myth anyway)). Actually enjoyable, I can see why it appeals to a big audience from various age groups.

This is a book I'm reading for the second time in years. I didn't think I would like it as much or feel as excited to read the continuation as when I read it the first time. To my surprise, the build up for the second book and Percy's personality washed over me all the same. I feel a deep affection for this saga, and it makes me happy that this is indeed a good book.

Okay, I live in a house where it's divided into Harry Potter and Percy Jackson. I, as the youngest, was never on any sides. (I had never read them.) I first tried Harry Potter. Whoow! I could not read it. I don't know why, but I couldn't make it more than a hundred pages. Then it was my brothers birthday and he got Percy Jackson. (The first series: The Olympians.) And then I read this and LOVED it! I honestly really recommend this for people who couldn't read Harry Potter. <3

This was fun! The characters were endearing and exciting. I liked the simplicity of it. It is a great book for young readers!

Overall, I quite enjoyed this. But I felt like it was lacking the GRIPPING/can’t-put-it-down quality that I was anticipating. There were a lottt of easy-to-overcome obstacles that felt like they were taking us away from the main plot and at times I felt irritated by those. And it dragged a bit in the middle for awhile. But I enjoyed the ADHD and Dyslexia representation, I was also a kid with both of those. And I liked the characters! I’ll probably continue the series at some point.

je mi vážně líto, že to říkám, protože vím, že hodně z vás s Percym vyrostlo a je to součást vašeho dětství, ale mně se prostě nelíbil.
prvních 100 stran bylo ok, příběh začínal, děly se tam zajímavé věci, jenže potom bylo dalších 200 stran opravdu k nesnesení. hrdinové cestovali přes USA a pořád se jim něco dělo. bylo to už tak přetažené za vlasy, že to ztratilo veškeré kouzlo.
u většiny knih máte úvod, zápletku, a rozuzlení, ale tady mi přišlo, že byla jen zápletka jedna za druhou každých 10 stran. a to ani nemluvím o tom, jak zvláštně a řekla bych až povrchově to bylo napsáno. prostě mi to nesedlo, člověk sotva pochopil, že se něco děje, a po 2 stranách to bylo vyřešeno, ale za další 3 strany se začalo dít zase něco jiného. a takhle to šlo pořád a pořád a pořád. nevím, prostě mi to hrozně vadilo.
dál jsem si samozřejmě všimla podoby s Harrym Potterem, tři nejlepší přátelé, hlavní hrdina jakž takž, ale bez chytré kamarádky by nepřežil, a podpůrný třetí kamarád, který je 'comic relief'.
taky mi neseděl autorův humor, ale tak to není jeho chyba.
.
dávám tomu 3*/5*, jsem zklamaná. další díly zkusím přečíst, ale je taky dost možné, že celou sérii odložím a nevrátím se k ní.

I really liked this book! The book was a bit just like "move to each major plot point back to back" and but that is what I would expect for a book series for kids. It was fun seeing the greek mythology in a modern context.

maybe si lo hubiera leído a los 13 I would’ve liked it more… actually no I did read it at 13 and still didn’t like it. I don’t think it’s bad, some parts are quite enjoyable, maybe it’s just not for me. 
love me some greek mythology, but I draw the line at making poseidon wear a tommy bahamas shirt.

Kaitlin Simpson

Loved the movie and overall premise of the story. Just might be a little too juvenile for my taste, but it is a great read for young readers! Wish I would have read this earlier.

played out like a movie in my head wow. can't believe I despised reading growing up, this would have rocked 10 year old me's world DOWN

I think the Percy Jackson series was after my time because I did not read them as a kid. As a 12-year old I would have loved the characters and the story of this series but as a grown up I found it a little difficult to relate to the situations in the book that are unabashedly targeted at pre-teens. But having said that, reading this book was still an enjoyable experience. 

The first book in the series is an archetypal hero on a quest story, where our unlikely protagonist (Percy Jackson) is the underdog till he is in a dangerous situation that makes him face his real identity (a demigod). He then finds his true family (Camp Half-Blood) and a mentor (Chiron), who send him on a quest he think he isn't ready. He, and his gang, is met with several obstacles for until, lo and behold, he comes out victorious. 

What I really enjoyed about the book was the humour, I didn't think I would enjoy it as much as I did. I also liked how each chapter had a title and I think that this is something that authors should definitely include more often.
