If my life is going to mean anything, I have to live it myself.

"The Lightning Thief," the first book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series by Rick Riordan, follows the thrilling adventures of Percy Jackson, a seemingly ordinary teenager who discovers he is a demigod, the son of Poseidon. When Zeus's lightning bolt is stolen, Percy is accused of the theft and embarks on a perilous quest to clear his name and prevent a catastrophic war among the gods. With the help of his friends, including Annabeth Chase and Grover Underwood, Percy must navigate the treacherous world of Greek mythology, facing monsters, gods, and personal challenges along the way. The novel brilliantly combines modern-day life with ancient mythology, offering readers an engaging and action-packed journey.
