Add a Commentso cool,the book it one of may bests..
a really good graphic novel which also connects 2 the chapter book
The graphic novel of The Lightning Thief closely follows the plot of the book by the same name, and it was nice to have a non-Hollywood visual representation of the characters. However there is a lack of side-quests and minor mythological characters in this version of the story, which make the whole book seem extremely compact and less satisfying.
The pictures kinda destroyed my likes for this book
it is an average book. It has missed out a lot of parts from the novel and climax movie.
