Percy Jackson Collection By: Rick Riordan

Experience the Thrilling Adventures of Percy Jackson

The Percy Jackson Collection, a captivating trilogy by Rick Riordan, is now available in an exquisite box set from Penguin Books UK. This isn't just a book; it's a journey into the heart of Greek mythology, relocated to modern-day America and packed with action, humor, and unforgettable characters.

About the Collection

The set includes three enthralling titles:

1. The Lightning Thief: The Gods of Olympus are alive in the 21st Century. They still fall in love with mortals and have children who might become great heroes, but most of these children meet horrible fates at the hands of monsters by the age of twelve. Only a few learn the truth of their identity and make it to Half Blood Hill, a Long Island summer camp dedicated to training young demigods.

   Such is the revelation that launches young Percy Jackson on a quest to help his real father, Poseidon, avert a war among the gods. With the help of Grover the satyr and Annabeth the daughter of Athena, Percy must journey across the United States to catch a thief who has stolen Zeus' master bolt.

   Along the way, they face a host of mythological enemies determined to stop them. Most of all, Percy must come to terms with a father he has never known, and an Oracle that has warned him of betrayal by a friend.

2. The Sea of Monsters: Percy Jackson has had an unnervingly quiet school year. But then he discovers that the magical borders protecting Half Blood Hill are failing. Unless something is done, the camp will be attacked by demons and monsters. The only way to restore power to the camp's borders is to find the mythical Golden Fleece.

   And the only person who can undertake this dangerous quest is Percy...

3. The Titan’s Curse: It's the last Friday before the winter holidays but Percy Jackson isn't at school: he's battling the fearsome Manticore (half human, half lion), which in itself isn't ideal... but with Annabeth missing and the goddess of the hunt held captive, things get a lot more serious...

Greek mythology has never been so exciting and accessible. With action-packed sequences, funny dialogues, and relatable characters, these books are perfect for both boys and girls aged 10+.

About the Author

Rick Riordan is a teacher turned writer who has won numerous awards for his mystery novels for adults. The idea for Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief first came to him while teaching Greek mythology at middle school in San Francisco.

The rumor goes that Camp Half Blood actually exists, and Rick spends his summers there recording the adventures of young demigods. However, he was reportedly forced to swear on the River Styx to present Percy Jackson's story as fiction to avoid a mass panic among the mortal population.

Rick lives in Texas with his wife and two sons (apart from his summers spent at Camp Half Blood). You can visit Rick's official website at www.rickriordan.com to learn more about him and his work.
