Percy Jackson & The Lightning Thief. I just watched the movie last week when it just came out in cinemas. It was really good. And despite my tight budget, I bought the book, yesterday.. or was it the day before.. ok forget that. I read a few chapters. And it was totally different from the movie. But the story is good. Really good. Even got some parts that will make you laugh. I don't want to spoil the story here. Here's some of the info about the book that you would normally get when u search the net. And hey, see the website. Its totally cool.

Book Description
Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school...again. And that's the least of his troubles. Lately, mythological monsters and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be walking straight out of the pages of Percy's Greek mythology textbook and into his life. And worse, he's angered a few of them. Zeus's master lightning bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the prime suspect.
Now Percy and his friends have just ten days to find and return Zeus's stolen property and bring peace to a warring Mount Olympus. But to succeed on his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the true thief: he must come to terms with the father who abandoned him; solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves.
