Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief

Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan. Kids. I look forward to the day I can share this series of books with my own kid. It's lots of fun. Greek Gods are alive and kicking in the modern world. They haven't changed a bit though. Zeus is still crazy, Ares is rage filled, and Haides feels mistreated. Percy is a halfer. His dad is Poseidon. He doesn't deal well with school cause of all the monsters after him. His step dad is a real jerk. The other kids don't get him. The Gods have it out for him. Is it paranoia if everyone really is out to get you?
