Read it now. Mr. riordon’s Percy Jackson series teaches you a lot About Greek mythology. I recommend this series.

This is the best Greek god book!!!. I am really into Greek mythology and if you are too then you should buy this book.if you want just a good book in the background and a new sires then try this book sires there are 2 movies out run so go watch them.

Really good book. DISCLAIMER! I didn’t use the digital version, I’m reviewing the book not the quality of the ebook. Anyways, I love this book, I haven’t even finished the entire thing! I didn’t think I would like it as I haven’t read a book willingly in years (By willingly I mean not being told to, I found it and just decided to read it)! I has hooked reading this at midnight because I just had to read more. 9/10

Awesome Book. My all time favorite book series has been “Diary Of A Wimpy Kid” for the longest time. I think Percy Jackson has just dethroned Wimpy Kid. First off, Percy is an extremely likable character. I love his POV and him always making these little jokes. Now that I’ve been reading Percy Jackson I know more about Greek Gods then I should…. Overall great book, can’t wait to get Chalice Of The Gods!

Great book. My son is 11 and read this for school and it became a family favorite. The girls who are 9 loved it and wanted to hear the whole story. It grabbed the whole family’s attention. Would definitely recommend.

Favorite Book Series!!!. I LOVE the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series! It is so adventurous and fun to read. I would literally read this book in school. I recommend the book to anyone who loves action and adventure. BUT there is one problem. So many people say that they like younger kids to read it. I personally think that because of war, death and some hostility it should be for people who are at lest 13. Other then the age recommendations I LOVE the series and recommend it to anyone who is at lest 13.

Amazing Book. This was an AMAZING book, if you like fantasy and Greek gods then this is the book for you. I love it so much and can’t wait to read the second book. ❤️📚

I love this book. Great series but if you don’t mind books with a little swearing check out I am number four Lorien legacies series

This book is WOW!!. It taught me some more than what I learned in school about Greek mythology gods like The goddess of revenge. It is a good book. Inspiring and Worrying like what’s going to happen!! I’m on the fourth book so far as today. This is my after read after the Wingfeather Saga by Andrew Peterson. READ IT TOO!!!

Great book. This is an amazing book! Percy Jackson and the lightning thief is worth buying!!!!!

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!. I am Aphrodite’s daughter. Please follow me on Sonic issues and Wings of Fire! Btw. Lord Hunkyhair I’ve seen you on WoF so hi

Fun and action packed. I got recommended this book from my girlfriend and even though I haven’t seen any of the movies, I really enjoyed this. It’s a lot of good things mixed into one that sometimes made me go from laughing, to anger, to sadness, and back again. I really enjoyed this and now I am most likely going to be spending many days and hours reading the rest of the series.

A classic.. Very charismatic, likable and interesting. Having the books in a first person perspective was an ingenious move by Riordan. It would just be sooo much different from a third person perspective and would possibly take away from the charm of the original story. Hope that stay true with the new adaptation. Highly recommend this book for all middle schoolers.

IM A HALFBLOOD. I love all these types of books (ex. Harry Potter, Keeper of the Lost Cities) it’s a great book! Keep up the good work, Rick Riordan! Age rating: 9+

Amazing. The books does fantastic job at world building I really feel like I can see the camp and the monsters wonderful storytelling

Game changer. I absolutely loved this book, adored it. It changed my perspective on so many things in my life and everytime I opened the book I felt invested in the pages. I felt like I was actually in the story with Annabeth, Percy, and Grover. If you’re thinking about buying it and reading it 100% YES from me!

OMG. ANNABETH❤️PERCY CUTEST COUPLE EVER!!

Great book. I love the writing of the book it made me feel as though I was in the book!

Amazing. This book is amazing and worth the money it is full of twist and turns and pretty funny at times I love this book my teacher suggested it to me so im going to ask you what she asked me “Do you like Percy Jackson?” -BHH 11 yrs old

Simply a good book. I loved reading this book it allows you to dive into a fictional story that’s simply amazing and exciting.

Love. Best book ever

ReviewKing. This is a great book. Filled with action, suspense, and good and bad people. I also never knew that George Washington is a son of Athena. But… I am deeply sorry that Percy Jackson does not win my best book. ☹️

A must read!. This book is so good! This is my second time reading it and I am not disappointed!

Loved it. Best book I have listed to in a long time. Easy to get through and the characters are easy to be enchanted by.

A Truly Amazing Book. This book is full of adventure and will make you feel like you might have powers too. Rick Riordan must have put so much time into making this and that’s evident because he has made all these references and words that make since with the book. Like characters in the book might say something like, “Holy Hera!” If they’re surprised. I think that is so cool, and I could never do that in any of the papers my mom makes my write for homeschool. I love the slang, but that’s not all, there is so much possibility in this book and so little flaws. (And I also love the way he does the chapters with the name of the chapter being the character’s name in the book, in their perspective). I just want to say thank you to Rick Riordan for giving us something to read/ listen to when we’re bored.

Best series. Best series I’ve ever read.

Great Reread. Fantastic book just as I remembered. Follow Percy and friends on his quest to humble the Gods. 10/10, would definitely recommend.

Truly Amazing!. I finished this book in 2 days! Honestly it was perfect!! I’ve missed fantasy and when I picked up my phone and decided to read this one I just immediately fell in love and could not put it down (literally talk to my family I was reading wherever and whenever one could read)

Great book. Great characters twists and everything right

Amazing. I’m a kid who didn’t read a book in 3 years. Then about 5 days ago I decided to read this out of no where. Summer was getting to me and I was bored. This book was interesting and turning. It left no space for boredom and left me wanting to keep reading. A must read in my eyes.

amazing book. this book is amazing. i haven’t bought the ebook but i have read the book like 100 times. it’s so good and funny and you should read it. i love that it wasn’t obvious who stole the lightning bolt. it’s so so so amazing. I LOVE THIS BOOK!

Awesome. I really enjoyed the book. Really recommend!!!

I love it. This was great! I love how it wasn’t obvious that about who stole the lightning bolt.

Good. Good book

If you’re looking for a new series then you found it.. This book is so amazing that when I was in school we were supposed to read it as a class but I may have gotten a bit too interested and read the whole thing. A day ago I was thinking that Wings of Fire was the best series in the world and is far better than every book but honestly now I’m not so sure after reading a couple books in the series. I hope you enjoy this masterpiece as much as I did.

Favorite book series. 4.0 Rick just has a way with his characters that makes them so personable.

Som haikus for you. Thank you uncle Rick These books have given me Lifelong memories Blue food is the best Gabe deserved worse than stone Apollo is amazing

A Super Fun Read. This action-packed tale is a super fun read. Percy and his friends are enjoyable protagonists against a world full of gods and monsters right out of Greek mythology. A fun wild ride all around.

Mythological and Action Packed. This story is your typical lonely, troubled kid that’s ends up learning that they have powers and needs to save the world. And this book performs this magnificently. Considering the demographic for this book, I think this is a perfect story containing great friendships, action, and it even teaches you about Greek mythology. Fun read for any age. One side point, if you or your child has ADHD (like myself) that they are struggling with, this story is very comforting and you can really relate to Percy and his struggles.

Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief. Started Rereading the entire series again after about 4 years and it’s bringing back my love for reading. Oh how I’ve missed the magical world of Percy Jackson. Can’t wait for the tv series!

YAS. I took a quiz apparently I’m Aris cabin lol not sure what to think about that….

Better than words can describe 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍. I’m 10 and I started reading at8 or 9, so yah. I looooooooooooove this series!!!! So much blood and death! I did a whole biography about Rick Riordan last year!!!!!! I’ve read all of his books (1. Greek mythology (duh) 2. Norse mythology 3. Egyptian mythology 4. Roman +Greek mythology 5.Roman +Greek mythology #2)!!!! I recommend all of the above to everyone close to my age. No complaints, love EVERYTHING about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(infinity sigh)

Engaging. This book is amazing!

I love it. Percy Jackson is my life. My teacher gives us eight dollars to spend on books for our birthdays. So I picked out the Hunger Games for 5$ and Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief for 3$. After I finished The Lightning Thief I went to my mom and she promised to put The Sea Of Monsters on hold. I had to wait a whole month. I died in that month. I love AnnaBeth and Grover. Rowan, Daughter Of Demeter

Super good. Super good and fun book to read

Great Book. I love how this book is so adventurous and I also love this book, since I get to know more about the Greek gods. Thank you Rick for writing this book!

To address a few things🍿🍩🍮🍦. 1. One of the best book series of the twenty-first century, period. Good for readers of all ages—hilarious and exciting, setting up much more greatness to come. 2. Why are a bunch of the reviews “love this book, fun and great” and just one star? Is it to attract more attention to positive reviews? It’s hurting the average, plz make your ratings reflect your opinion and put emojis in the title if you want to make sure people see your review. 3. The Harry Potter backlash is ridiculous. Harry Potter is an incredible fantasy story starring a bunch of teenagers. Percy Jackson is an incredible fantasy story starring a bunch of teenager. Yeah, what a rip-off!

Percy Jackson and The Lightning Theif. Oh My Gosh, I can not say this enough, this is the best book in the world. It had me hooked on the first sentence, I could not put it down, great descriptions, memorable characters and a hella good plot this book is legit awesome. If you like a good fantasy and Greek mythology I ten out recommend!!

( ^ω^ ). I love the books 📚 （╹◡╹）♡ ( ◠‿◠ ) W(`0`)W

Love love LOVED this book!. Every time I read this series it gets better and better. I recommend it to literally anyone! It is interesting, the characters are so amazing and powerful, and the plot is just so interesting and crazy! READ THIS!

Awesome. Great book I could put it down

Book. Great book. I read it 3 times. I loved this book and I think other people should read it.

I loved it <3. It's the best books ever :D !!!!!!!!

If you read this book, you CANNOT stop.. Trust me, if you finished this book you'll know how good it is. But you HAVE to read the rest of the series and the following series (ie. The Lost Hero and The Son of Neptune)! (: Once you start, there's no way you can stop! :D

OMG. Omg I was waiting to read this book for ever!!!!!!!😄😄😄

He did it again. Can't wait to read the second book

An exhilarating adventure. This book is one of my favorites I recommend this book to anyone it is so worth the money

Amazing!!!. Naturally, I hate books with monsters and stuff. So do most of my friends. But I started reading this book and I couldn't stop! It's an amazing book, full of adventure and fun. I totally support Percabeth too! I would definitely recommend this book to anyone! It also started getting me interested in Greek mythology! Jeez, before I read this book, the only thing I new was Zeus, a guy who has a big statue with blank eyes! But when I finished the series, I could name all the gods, mythical monsters and pretty much everything else! Hip, hip hooray, for Rick Riordan!

Amazing book. This is the most amazing book I've ever read. The plot is incredible, it's funny and adventurous. It's perfectly paced. I love it my little sister loves it and my mom does to. A great read.

Great book!. Love it!! If you’re a huge fantasy book fan , like me, you’ll definitely enjoy. I will say, like always, book is MUCH better than the movie.

I’m in love w/this book. I absolutely love this book! It kept me reading it for hours and hours at a time! I definitely recommend it to readers of all ages! Also thx to Apple for making a great format and making it very easy to read this book. I’m reading the second book on paper but I prefer on an app. If you are reading this, you should def check it out!!! If you’re unsure, read a sample. Honestly, when I read the name of the first chapter, I already wanted the book! (It was called “I accidentally vaporize my Pre-Algebra teacher”! I mean who wouldn’t want to read a book w/that kind of title!!!!!!!

Amazing. Ghid book is very literily a work of art

Epic. I love the characters, the plot, and all the action!

Percyreader221. This book is absolutely amazing! Can't wait for the sea of monsters!! Awash Yeeeah

Awsome. Dear Rick riordan I read all of the books for the lightning thief sires. I loved those books. From my point of view I read the lightning thief it was good then I read the sea of monsters. I liked that better then the lightning thief. Like after every book I read of that sires it was like you took it up a notch. Each book got more and more challenging and more and more interesting. But the only reason I started the first book was that the illusion of the cover you put so much detail into it just the title. Yellow and the end of ever letter was in lightning form. Then the back ground manhattan in the back ground with a storm over it. It caught my eye like it was telling me to read it. I have read other books and it had a noun in it and it showed it in the back ground like the maze runner the maze was right in the back ground. When i looked at the lightning thief I realized it was going to be a good book because the word was right in the back ground. I knew it was going to be a good book. My favorite was the last Olympian. Started it finished it in 2 to 3 days I sampled the red pyramide I read that book it hooked me and I will read that sires too. And the hero's of Olympus. you a very good author. Your adventure story's hook me like my mothers cooking. You keep writing and I will keep read reading.i can't wait to see the movies of the lightning thief books I hope there good as the books.

best book ever. this is the best seires ever.Riordan is my hero

Thanks. I was waiting for iBooks to come out because of this book I always wanted to have on my iPod touch

Awesome!. I really enjoyed this book but I still like the movie a bit better but I do recommend to read the book first then the movie

fantastic!. this is areally great book, i was up all night tryinhg to finish it, i highly recomend it.

The lightning theif. Best book ever

Very good book. This book has a very interesting plot!!! It's awesome!!!

Hi!. I would write a review but there are so many others already. Just thrust the fandom. (But I will mention this helps kids learn and get interested in greek mythology.) FANDAM UNITE!! (No that is not a typo. Inside joke.) (AHAHAHA!!)

Amazing book. This is book is amazing! The best book I have ever read! Very well written almost done the 2nd book! But by far this book is grand!

Great series! Love it! 9+. I love these books! I am currently on The Battle of the Labyrinth and I think it is the best one of the series so far! I don’t believe in Greek gods but they are fun to read about when Rick Riordan is writing the books! I love all the characters, especially Percy! He is not just another dull and serious main character, he is brave, selfless and really really funny! The humour that Uncle Rick puts into these books is what makes them so great. He knows how to write a good kids book, from a kids POV, and doesn’t give Percy the personality of an adult. Yet, he still writes with maturity when it is needed. And Also, Percy is such a great role model for your kids! I have learned so much about Greek mythology in these books! All the stories and characters are so fascinating! (My favourite Greek story is the one with Theseus in the Labyrinth) . Also, if you want to buy these for your kid but your worried, I got you! These books are totally appropriate, there is no swearing, no sexual stuff or intense kissing, and not a ton of blood or gore. There are battles but nothing too descriptive. The only thing you might want to beware of is that it does talk a lot about death and the underworld ( hell ) and hades ( the devil). There is a part where a boy summons the dead, and there are walking skeletons, but it really doesn’t describe much. Overall these books are totally great for any age( you can never be too old for Percy Jackson!) but I’d say 9+ or whatever age you are comfortable with your child reading them. Sorry that this was really long but I hope I informed you with what you needed!

FAVOURITE BOOKS OF ALL TIME. Lot of action and I just find it so funny when Percy's being a seaweed brain 😍. These are the best books ever! Definitely worth reading, and the second series too. A total Percabeth fan BTW :). Rick Riordan is the best author ever. FYI PERCY DROOLS IN HIS SLEEP 😉
