Some of you have read it some not. It is a great book and is very interesting. If you like Greek/Roman mythology I'm pretty sure you will like this book.

.:Also Called Percy Jackson and the Olympians:.

The book is about a boy named Percy Jackson. He has dyslexia and other problems. He has got expelled from schools numerous times. He loves his mother but does not get to see her, talk to her, or be near her often for an unknown reason. His father left when he was young and all he can remember is his warm, glowing smile. He is friends with his friend named grover. In his classes greek mythology is coming everywhere. School ends and he goes with his mom to a Monatuak beach getting away from his fake dad that he calls "Smelly Gabe". He suddenly has to leave his little vacation home. He doesn't know why but he goes to a camp after fighting the minotaur, called camp half blood. He finds out that every person there has one parent that is a god. He doesn't know what god is his father yet...


This is only the first book, there are 2 more. One is out and is called the Sea Of Monsters and a newer one getting released called The titans curse. I reccomend this book to anyone who likes greek mythology.

*If you thought Greek mythology isn't in the 21'st century in this book it is well alive and active*

The cover artwork is good, but you can't judge a book by it's cover. Thanks for the comment. Glad to help. ;)
