Percy Jackson :The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan


Percy Jackson, a fictional character created by Rick Riordan in his Olympian Series. Percy is not to be understood similar to Perseus Son of Zeus. In this series Percy is the son of Poseidon and he gets his surname Jackson by his mother. He was left with his mother by his father when he was very young and from there on Percy haven't met his father. The story is very well narrated, an excellent fantasy fiction book by author.  The story is based on Greek Gods Mythology, due to which it becomes more interesting.

It is the first book in Olympian series. Percy is suffering from ADHD and dyslexia, which proves out to be the important factors in Camp Half-Blood. He has been blamed as a Lightning Thief, which is Zeus most crucial weapon. The story unfolds as he moves into the Camp. After that he has to go on a Quest to prove himself innocent. The most mysterious thing about the story is that the Oracle before any quest provides a riddle which has a hidden meaning. After every few pages it seems the Oracle was pointing towards this and the very next moment another meaning pops out. The second most important thing about the book is Riordan has not left the modern world behind; he takes both the world parallel and provides a proper linkage between them. Greatly written book, consisting of suspense, twist and also presented in very easy language.

Once you start reading you just can’t keep the book down. For Fantasy Fiction Lovers it is an excellent book; should be read. In all very impressive book written by Rick Riordan. This book is one of my favorites.
