It´s the 21st century, but the gods of Mount Olympus and assorted monsters have walked out of the pages of high school student Percy Jackson´s Greek mythology texts and into his life. And they´re not happy: Zeus´ lightning bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the prime suspect. Even more troubling is the sudden disappearance of Percy´s mother. As Percy adapts to his newly discovered status as a demi-god (his father is Poseidon), he finds himself caught between the battling titans of Mt. Olympus. He and his friends embark on a cross-country adventure to catch the true lightning thief, save Percy´s mom, and unravel a mystery more powerful than the gods themselves.
