The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan

This is a book about a boy, Percy Jackson, with dyslexia and ADHD who discovers that he is a half-blood. He is the son of one of the Greek gods or goddesses and once he discovers this, he goes to a camp for other half-bloods. This book is very good because it is a fresh plot and storyline combining mythology with the modern world. The writing is very good first person narration and the story never gets dull. There is a second book out (The Sea of Monsters) and the third is coming out in 2007.

Rating:10/10
