The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan

5.0

I had a lot of fun reading this book. It's a great update on Greek mythology: Poseidon is a Jimmy Buffet-esque beach bum, Ares is a Hell's Angel, and Medusa sells eerily lifelike garden gnomes. If this series had been around when I was a kid, I'd have eaten it up with a spoon. I will definitely be reading the next one soon.
