This book is about the Greek god Zeus who thinks Percy, son of Poseidon – god of the sea, has stolen his lightning bolt. If Percy does not get the lightning bolt back to him in time a war will start that will kill lots of innocent people. Of course you’ll have to read the book to see if he manages it.

My favourite part was when Percy vaporised his maths teacher, and my favourite character is the minotaur, a monster from Greek myths which has a human body and a bull’s head. I enjoyed this book a lot (in fact I’ve now read all the others in the series) and I’m sure if you read this book you’ll like it as much as I did.
