Subject: [LM_NET] BOOK: The lightning thief by Riordan
Riordan, Rick. The lightning thief [Olympians #1] Hyperion, 2005
[0-7876-5629-7]
WOW this is an incredible mixing of current fiction with myth. The story
opens with Percy being thrown out of yet another private school because of
strange thing happening around him. He slowly realized that his non-present
father is someone special. He ends up in a camp for children of Greek Gods
and his father is one of the three major Greek gods who are about to have a
war with each other. It is Percy's quest to return a stolen treasure and
stop the war. This 375 page book is the first of a page-turning trilogy.
And yes, it is a trilogy, only three books are planned (and I think already
written.) This book may grab your Harry Potter fans. It also may start a
real interest in Green Mythology so hopefully you have the materials to
support it. Don't miss this one!
