The Lightning Thief
Author: Rick Riordan
Rating: It was amazing!
Recommendation: Anyone!
I had heard about the book series through my favorite pod caster when he started making a podcast about the books to try and follow along and I instantly fell in love. Everything about these books are wonderful from the characters, the plot, the humor, the world building, the representation, the myths that get dived into, the author himself, the fandom its created, everything. For a book written in 2005 it does have it's slip ups here and there, but all in all for it's time it is a very well written and representational book. I really have grown a soft spot for the book series and all the characters involved. I found my interest for this book and the rest of the series from a podcast about a grown man who had never read the books before which features many other adults reading along with him so I definitely recommend anyone of any age kid to adult read this book and the rest of the series (as well as all the other books Rick has written, they're all amazing!!)
