The Lightning Thief
by Rick Riordan
My book is called the The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan. It is the first of the Percy Jackson books.
The book is about Percy and his discovery that he is a half-blood, which means that he has a mortal mother but a god as a father. His mom died when they were fighting a monster. Before his mom died she told him to go over the hill called Half-blood Hill and find the strawberry farm and go to the house there you will find safety. That is what Percy did. When he got there he finds out his dad is Poseidon, the god of the sea!
My favorite part is when they are at the waterbed store and Percy’s best friends are tied up. He rescues them by using his sword that is also a ballpoint pen.
I would rate this book 5 stars because it really drags you into the story. I would recommend this book to a person who likes Harry Potter because it is full of amazing adventures. This book really is a great book!
I think I will read the book my other friend also recommended that series to me.
I love this book! It is my favorite series in the world by far and that is saying a lot! I like how the author isn’t all happy and makes friends evil!
