About this listen
Brought to you by Puffin.
The first audiobook in the bestselling Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. Discover the story behind the Disney+ series.
HALF BOY - HALF GOD - ALL HERO.
Look, I never asked to be the son of a Greek god. I was just a normal kid. . . until I accidentally vaporized my maths teacher.
Percy Jackson is having a bad week. His life has gone from totally normal to monsters-from-Greek-mythology-randomly-appearing kind of strange. Worse still, the king of the gods thinks Percy has stolen his all-powerful lightning bolt - and it seems making Zeus angry is a very bad idea.
Now Percy and his friends have just ten days to catch the true lightning thief and stop all-out war from erupting on Mount Olympus. . .

One of my favourite book series ever!
Full of action, humour and great characters. Weaves the Greek myths into a modern day story beautifully. If you like Harry Potter, you will enjoy the Percy Jackson series. Narrator did a great job too.

Great story, average narration
Great story to read. Unfortunately I didn't like the narrator, they weren't terrible, but all the characters sounded the same, and even in different events (e.g happy, stressful, action events) the voices sounded the same, it almost made the story sound boring even though it wasn't. I think this is a book i'll want to read again but in the physical form.

it's a kids book but a solid adventure story
Look, this is a book for kids. Is it an enjoyable story that's fun for a family bedtime? No doubt. But it's very much a kids book.
That being said, it's mostly still pretty enjoyable to an adult. The characters and dialogue are charming even if the story is very simplistic. If you want that warm feeling of a brand new fantasy series for the first time during primary school lunch, this is the book for you.

Wow as someone one only watched the movies this is amazing
My only experience with this property is was the movies about 7 years ago so coming back to this before the tv show was a shock. The story is amazing 10x better then the movie, the stakes are high, and has some of the best world building I’ve ever read/heard. The only fault in it is in the first couple chapters it’s abit weird to hear a grown man’s voice a bunch of 12 year olds but after a couple chapters you don’t even notice it. A true 9/10 book would recommend to anyone who wants a good read/audiobook
