The Lightning Thief

Twelve-year-old Percy Jackson is struggling to fit in at boarding school, frequently landing in trouble and doubting his own experiences—especially when it involves a monster attack from his pre-algebra teacher. His life takes a wild turn when he discovers that Greek mythology is real, and he's accused of stealing Zeus’s master lightning bolt. With just ten days to clear his name and restore peace among the gods, Percy embarks on a perilous journey from summer camp in New York to the Underworld in Los Angeles, joined by a satyr and Athena's demigod daughter. Along the way, he must confront his past, decipher cryptic warnings, and face formidable enemies.
