Description

I never asked to be the son of a Greek god. Percy Jackson was just a normal kid, going to school, playing basketball, skateboarding, the usual. Until he accidentally vaporized his maths teacher. That's when things really started going wrong. Now he spends his time fighting with swords, battling monsters, and generally trying to stay alive. First in the award-winning series by Rick Riordan.
