Percy Jackson - The Lightning Thief (Review)

This is a really good children's novel. I just listened to it a couple of weeks ago on Audiobook. The audiobook was done really well. The novel itself was great.

Basically, Percy Jackson isn't your normal human, in fact he isn't human at all. Something strange happened to him at a field trip, and at first he thought it was all an hallucination. He soon finds himself in a school for half-humans/half-gods. He has to complete a mission that could be the survival of Earth.

The idea is completely original. The story was very exciting and fun as it played out. However, I could see a lot of things coming. This is probably because it is a middle-grade novel and the fact that I'm a writer. It was predicable for me, but extremely entertaining. I highly recommend it, especially for children.

4/5 Stars.
