Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief (Deluxe Collector's Edition) by Rick Riordan (Percy Jackson and the Olympians)
Twelve-year-old Percy Jackson thinks he's going crazy. Teachers turn into monsters. Mythical creatures keep trying to kill him. And now his best friend is a satyr—a goat-legged creature from Greek mythology. But the truth is far stranger and more dangerous than madness: Percy is the son of Poseidon, god of the sea. He's a demigod, and whether he likes it or not, he's been thrust into a world of gods, monsters and epic quests that began thousands of years ago.
When Zeus's master lightning bolt is stolen and Percy becomes the prime suspect, he has no choice but to embark on a cross-country odyssey alongside his newfound friends: Grover, a satyr with a wicked sense of humour, and Annabeth, the brilliant demigod daughter of Athena. Together, they must retrieve the stolen bolt, navigate deadly encounters with creatures both mythological and menacing, and somehow prevent an all-out war on Mount Olympus itself. Their journey takes them from the American heartland to the gates of the Underworld in Los Angeles, where nothing is quite what it seems and trust is the rarest commodity of all. Rick Riordan's hilarious, fast-paced debut is a masterclass in modern adventure fantasy—blending ancient mythology with contemporary wit to create a series that has enchanted millions of young readers worldwide.
This stunning deluxe collector's edition features a foiled, clothbound cover, stained edges, a silk ribbon bookmark, and ten pages of brand-new interior illustrations. With notes from Rick Riordan himself and a design that truly stands apart on the shelf, this is the definitive edition for devoted fans and newcomers alike—the perfect introduction to a phenomenon that redefined young adult fantasy.
