The way Rick Riordan weaves mythological elements into a modern setting is both impressive and engaging. The narrative is immersive, full of adventure, and keeps you hooked from beginning to end. It’s not just a story—it’s an experience that makes mythology feel alive and relevant today. Review: A Great Companion to the Series - I see a lot of complaints that this is NOT the original novel, and I have to say: Of course it isn't. This is more of a companion piece - a cliff notes version; which is not to say that this is a bad thing. It really isn't. I do agree that it's short; yes, it is. But even the original series itself feels short if, like me, you're somebody who really gets into the stories they read. Also, some parts have been left out. Important parts that set up the future books. But This book just gives the reader the incentive (as it should) to then read (or re-read) the novels themselves, and to then fill the missing parts in and for me, it serves that purpose and then some. The main purpose this companion serves for me is the visual aspect. I love the English language and am actually a linguistics genius, but I have always preferred the visual aspect of media and entertainment. However, while I am one of the few who actually enjoyed the film version (to an extent), I wasn't really pleased with some of the aesthetics, and I did not appreciate some of the casting choices either, Annabeth Chase being one of the bigger ones. With that being said, I was actually ecstatic when I learned that there may possibly be a TV adaptation of the series, and I ordered this set to get an idea of the art style behind the characters, and this novel served that purpose beautifully. I will admit that some of the characters look a little more...developed, for their ages, but it's nice to get an idea of where the TV adaptation can go and, for that, I applaud these graphic novels wholeheartedly. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #4,205 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #11 in Children's Action & Adventure Comics & Graphic Novels #22 in Children's Greek & Roman Tales & Myths #228 in Children's Action & Adventure Books (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (5,965) | | Dimensions | 5.98 x 0.39 x 8.95 inches | | Edition | Media tie-in | | Grade level | 3 - 7 | | ISBN-10 | 1368100821 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1368100823 | | Item Weight | 9.6 ounces | | Language | English | | Part of Series | Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Graphic Novel | | Print length | 128 pages | | Publication date | November 21, 2023 | | Publisher | Disney Hyperion | | Reading age | 9 - 12 years, from customers | ## Images ![Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief The Graphic Novel (paperback) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/819kZcNEp4L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Captivating Journey Through Mythology *by E***Z on November 21, 2025* I’ve always been fascinated by mythology, and Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief gave me fresh perspectives on these timeless stories.
