Percy Jackson Lightning Theif

Percy Jackson Lightning Theif: By Andrew Rich

In the series, Percy Jackson starts out as a normal kid with HDHD and disciplinary issues until one day he learns that he is a demigod (half-god, half-human).  He is taken to camp half-blood to learn about his heritage and get caught up with the hidden world.  He was given the name Percy after the greek hero and founder of Mycenae Perseus.  I think that while it is obviously unrealistic for this time, the way that they incorporate the myths into modern society is well done.  I also think that they create a good balance of ancient myth and recent fabrication to create a novel where you are able to see into both worlds through one set of eyes.
