About this ebook

You've read the book. You've seen the movie. Now submerge yourself in the thrilling, stunning, and action-packed graphic novel. Mythological monsters and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be walking out of the pages of twelve-year-old Percy Jackson's textbooks and into his life. And worse, he's angered a few of them. Zeus's master lightning bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the prime suspect. Now, he and his friends have just ten days to find and return Zeus's stolen property and bring peace to a warring Mount Olympus. Series creator Rick Riordan joins forces with some of the biggest names in the comic book industry to tell the story of a boy who must unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves.

Ratings and reviews

the book was amazing, one of the best books I've ever read! the graphics were so realistic and it's like the Author was with me the whole time, as if he was reading the book to me...

Review: Demigods and Monsters: Your Favorite Authors on Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series It's a book of essays on a book series. NOT EVEN GOOD ESSAYS! One of the essay's says 'now I am to the point of this essay' OMGS! yes I am a dedicated Rick Riordan fan and I thought it would be kind of cool to read about what other published authors thought about the excelent series.

This series is amazing! Rick Riordan is an amazingly talented author! He has a way of making history come alive and to make it modern for anyone to enjoy and learn about. I started reading this series back in 7th or 8th grade, and now I am a freshman in College, and I am still hooked! I have grown up with these characters and the stories Rick has made have been amazing! Please keep in mind that the movies, is completely different from the books. The are good, but they tell a completely different story than the one portrayed in the books, if you want to see the movie or have seen it, I implore your to read the series first! It is so good!
