Percy Jackson and The Olympians is a series of fantasy children’s novels that follow the adventures of Percy Jackson, the young demigod son of Poseidon, who must discover the origins of his ancestry and relation to the Greek pantheon of gods that had been hidden from him.
Gathering friends in the Satyr Grover and fellow demigod and daughter of Athena Annabeth Chase, Percy uncovers the world of Greek mythology and also takes a quest to steal Zeus’ lightning bolt in The Lightning Thief.
The Percy Jackson books have been critically acclaimed garnering widespread attention since they were first released in 2009. The original Lightning Thief novel has spawned four subsequent novels following Percy’s journey, with the upcoming Chalice of The Gods set to be the 6th novel released in the series.
Rick Riordan has also authored a sequel series The Heroes of Olympus which takes place in the same universe as Percy Jackson’s adventures, albeit with a different protagonist and supporting characters.
In 2010 the first novel was adapted into a film, Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Lightning Thief featured Logan Lerman playing the titular role of Percy Jackson with a strong supporting cast that included Brandon Jackson, Alexandra Daddario, Uma Thurman, Sean Bean, and more.
While the film received mixed reviews from critics, primarily for not clinging to the source material, it was still popular enough to receive a sequel, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters. A third film was set to be released but never made it into production.
