Percy Jackson and the Olympians

          Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan is an amazing series! It is about 12 year-old Perseus Jackson, who discovers Greek Gods are real, and that he is related to one. Percy (short for Perseus) goes to Camp Half Blood, a camp for half bloods (sons and daughters of Greek gods). In the camp, Percy makes some friends, but with his strong lineage his life isn't very easy. He has a lot of people wanting to harm him, at all costs. Percy embarks on a series of adventures with his friends Annabeth and Grover, and his loyalties are challenged. During this series, Percy fights his enemies, some of the Greek gods, and most importantly, he fights to find himself. He faces betrayal, doubt, and pain, but will that stop him?
