Percy Jackson & the Olympians
Percy Jackson & the Olympians is a five-book series written by Rick Riordan. The books are The Lightning Thief, The Sea of Monsters, The Titan's Curse, The Battle of the Labyrinth, and The Last Olympian.

In these books, Greek mythology is real. As the gods were said to be immortal, they are still alive in the modern day. A "half-blood" or "demigod" is the result of a union between gods and mortals. Many magical locations have moved westward into America (for instance, the gods' home is now atop the Empire State Building and the Sea of Monsters is now the Bermuda Triangle). A magical substance called the Mist clouds the thoughts of mortals (and, to a lesser extent, half-bloods) and hides the presence of all things magical. Monsters from Greek myths, even the ones who were killed in ancient times, are still around. Whenever they die, they return to the Underworld to spend anywhere from a few seconds to several centuries recovering. Then they come back to life.

The main character is Perseus "Percy" Jackson, a half-blood son of Sally Jackson and Poseidon, god of the sea. His very existence is technically illegal since Poseidon had made a pact with his brothers Zeus and Hades after World War Two to never have any more children, partially because children of the "Big Three" were always more dangerous than other demigods, and partially because a prophecy was made that stated a Big Three demigod would have a fifty percent chance of destroying Olympus (but also a fifty percent chance of saving it) when he/she turned sixteen. His main weapon is Anaklusmos, literally "Riptide", a sword disguised as a pen that was once wielded by Hercules. It always returns to him if he ever loses it.

During the series, the Titan lord Kronos, father of the gods, makes his rise to power in order to reclaim power from the gods who took it from him. Many demigods, Titans, and minor gods chose his side over the Olympians, making it seem like Olympus was doomed. By the end of the series, however, the gods had defeated Kronos's forces in the Battle of Manhattan.

Apart from Percy and the various figures from classical myths, some other major characters include: Annabeth Chase, a daughter of Athena. She is a strategist, an innovator, and by the end of the series, the architect of Olympus. She has a bronze knife given to her by Luke (see below), a Yankees cap charmed to make her invisible, and a laptop that contains all of Daedalus's unfinished projects. Also, at the end of the Last Olympian, she and Percy are officially an item. Then there is Grover Underwood, a satyr who was Percy's best friend for years.
