The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan, 377 pagesPercy Jackson has always had a knack for getting in trouble, and when he's 13, he finally figures out why: he's a demigod, son of a mortal woman and a Greek god. This book kicks off the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, and is full of tidbits of Greek mythology, goofy humor (one description of malfunctioning flying shoes sent my son into a 20-minute fit of laughter), and PLENTY of action. A fun series, and we'll keep reading it!
