Author: Rick Riordan
Length: 396 pages
ASIN: B00280LYIC

The first book in the Olympians series, and heads up: lots of Rick Riordan's titles are on sale today. Percy is a twelve-year-old kid who discovers he's a demigod--half human, half god-- as the absent father he's never known is actually Poseidon, king of the sea. If you're looking for what to read next after you're finished with a certain boy wizard, give Percy Jackson a try. The books in this series are great contenders for books boys love because, in Riordan's world, the gods stir up all kinds of trouble down on earth.

About the Book

Publisher’s description:

Percy Jackson is a good kid, but he can’t seem to focus on his schoolwork or control his temper. And lately, being away at boarding school is only getting worse-Percy could have sworn his pre-algebra teacher turned into a monster and tried to kill him.
