The first book in the bestselling Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. Now with a new cover look! Discover the story behind the Disney+ series. HALF BOY - HALF GOD - ALL HERO. Look, I never asked to be the song 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. . . What could possibly go wrong? Return to the World of Percy Jackson in the best-selling, brand-new adventure featuring the original hero in Percy Jackson and the Olympians- Chalice of the Gods - out now! And don't miss the trio's next adventure in Percy Jackson and the Olympians- Wrath of the Triple Goddess, coming soon!

About the Author:

Rick Riordan is the god of mythology-meets-modern-day adventure, best known for creating the wildly popular Percy Jackson & the Olympians series. With a pen as mighty as a celestial bronze sword, Rick introduced us to a whole new world where Greek gods have kids, monsters lurk in high schools, and quests are basically a teenager’s after-school activity.

A former middle school teacher with a passion for storytelling, Rick turned his son’s love of myths into a full-blown universe of heroes, humor, and heart. From Camp Half-Blood to the Egyptian magicians of The Kane Chronicles and the Norse antics in Magnus Chase, his books blend epic action with clever comedy and relatable characters.

He’s not just writing adventure stories—he’s building worlds where every reader can feel like a hero (or at least a sarcastic sidekick with a cool sword).

If you’re into fast-paced quests, hilarious one-liners, and a whole lot of mythological mayhem, Rick Riordan is the author who’ll keep you turning the pages faster than Hermes on a sugar rush.
