This Book is by one of 3 authors that actually keep me entertained while I'm reading. I recommend it normally to 4th graders, because I read it in 4th grade. But Beware! There's a ton of word that are reallt really confusing! But seriously, you should really read it!

Series creator Rick Riordan joins forces with some of the biggest names in the comic book industry to tell the story of a boy who must unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves.

I read this book and it's so GOOD!
This book is one of the best books ever! I could read it a billion times and never get bored of the series. I've recommended this book to my whole class and they loved it. It's a MUST READ.
This is a GREAT book, and reading it got me interested in the series. I never really liked the Percy Jackson books, but after reading this I am hooked! I have re-read this book a lot and really enjoyed it.
This book is one of my very favorites because it is action-packed. The people I know love genres such as nonfiction, fantasy, and mystery. Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief has it all! If you love blockbusters, I am sure you will like this book.
This story is one of my favorites because it is action-packed. Books like this always make you be on the edge of your seat, wondering what might be next. If you like blockbusters, I'm sure you will like it too.
o.m.g. this was my absolute favorite series to read- along with Harry Potter and Twilight ( the books are way better than Twilight movies BTW!) I've also read the other Percy Jackson series and they also are my favorite. I. LOVE. THIS. SERIES.
I had started this book because a lot of other kids in my class had been reading it. I finished it in a matter of hours. I would definitely recommend it for the humor, action, and general story line.
When I first read Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief, I was glued!!! It is a intense but at the same time humorous. Though the book was amazing with all of its twists and turns, the movie was horribly inaccurate. There was even a Hydra in the movie but not in the book. The whole plot of the story in meddled and tattered with! I recommend the book not the movie.
I've read all the books in the Percy Jackson series, and I loved all of them!
