A review by gracefool
The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan

2.0

I feel like if I was younger I could have enjoyed it. But the plot moves around too quickly for me, too many things simply fall in to place to work and the writing... perhaps if the series was presented as a show/cartoon I would enjoy it, but as a book the writing is simple and bland. All of this combined with the fact that it relies on Greek Mythology to build a world instead of building it itself, leads to a disappointing book.
