Love this book, great every time. The narration is pretty good. Defiantly worth the time to listen to
I love this book! But I just wish that the narrator would have their voice impersonate the characters more!
I love this book.

Great action packed book with greek gods, I don't know if you can get any better than that

It was very engaging! The narrator did a great job of characterizing everyone. I reallt enjoyed this book.
Amazing book great plot good narrator and this book helped me a lot on walks
to be honest at 35 years old the first time I found these books didn't really think that I was going to like them. but after listening to them on audio book while I was driving over the road semi trucks I found these books to be very good books. I would like to say thank you to the writer and to the narrator but doing such a great job.
It was boring but I'm a generous man. I basically had to do it for my essay and I'm just too lazy to read.
I really liked this book I have read every one at least twice. ????
It was a great book lots of action it had great parts to it one of my favorite
I have read this book at school and I like it but the part in the movie when the teacher I think is scary
I think the book is awesome it has action and fighting.
It's a good book. Read the book before watching the movie then make comparisons
Nicely done with the most important part in this book is loutas hotel
This book is lit.
I love this book very much and I bought this audiobook because of that; BUT the narrator is terrible. The list of mispronounced words is endless and his vocal variations are limited. In what world does a British/foreign accent sound the same as an american southern accent!? I don't blame the narrator for his mistakes I blame the producers and editors for thinking this recording was worthy for the general public to hear.
Great narrator!!!! Jesse really does bring life to characters. Looking forward to listening to the other books in the series :)
I love this book
I must have read this whole series at least 20 times when I was in middle school and its just as good now as it was then!
I love this book. it is really good
hated the reader but the book was awesome!
I've read the book before, but being able to listen to it wherever was awesome. And the guy reading had different voices for all of the characters. It was awesome!
This is a cute kids’s tale. Percy is 12 and apparently gets kicked out of schools often. His mom currently has them living with a dead beat, verbally abusive man that has a body odor problem. Life is just tough on Percy. But it’s about to get a lot tougher when Greek deities and monsters pop up in his life! There were several moments that made me laugh…. like Grover suddenly yanking off his pants. That’s the moment where Percy is all, ‘What the hell!’ but then Grover has fur and hooves below the waist, so Percy is stunned into silence. Grover is a Satyr assigned to protect Percy but he’s been keeping his Greek mythology side on the down low with a disguised lower half. Grover isn’t the only one who’s been keeping their real identity from Percy. In fact, there were a few times I thought Percy’s young mind might melt from the over load of reveals. After a harrowing chase and the death of someone important to him, he ends up at the Half Blood training camp where he meets other kids who are half mortal and half deity. Now, I did think that Percy took that death in stride and it was a bit glossed over. I expected tears for days and scars for life but this book seems to veer wide of any serious stuff. There’s several examples of this, like Medusa and how she really came to be a snake headed monster. It wasn’t some jealousy over dating partners. Anyhoo, pretty soon Percy gets a quest and goes on a road trip. Annabeth (a daughter of Athena) and Grover accompany him. There’s also the gifts from Luke (a son of Hermes). As Western culture has shifted further and further west, key places in Greek mythology have also shifted and several now reside in the USA. I liked this bit of world building because it meant I didn’t have to bang my head against a wall every time a Greek mythological location popped up. Percy isn’t the only one to face their fears and take on a personal challenge in this story. His companions also suffer and have a chance at victory. There’s treachery too. Percy must figure out who his true friends are while also discovering who stole Zeus’s lightning. It’s a fun tale but I didn’t have a strong reaction to it as I did with Harry Potter. 4/5 stars. The Narration: Jesse Bernstein does a really good job. He sounds like a 12 year old boy who has gotten kicked out of a lot of places. His voice for Grover is great, as he sometimes has a little goat in it. His female voices are spot on. There’s several monsters with their various yells, hisses, snorts, etc and Bernstein carries them off without a hitch. 5/5 stars.
The book is great, the narrator is ok, but all his characters sound the same. I wish he would change hi styles a little bit when reading the different characters.
that's pretty good
Great book! narration was good!
This book series was a fun spin on the Greek gods with good voices and a great plot. Some people are saying it’s a kids book and hating on it, don’t listen to them!
This book is really nice it is well described .It is probably my fav book
it's a up and down roller coaster of emotion
I downloaded this for my kiddo and we loved listening to it every time we were in the car! Exciting book and adds in a lot of real world scenarios such as ADHD and dyslexia. 9 year old loves it!
There were just a few mispronunciations of some words that drive me crazy.
Gooooooooood!
It’s amazing
So good read the all the books 3 times already.
I tuned in to hear about the "progressive Harry Potter" the fandom talked about, but though there were a few interesting ideas regarding the concept of western civilization, I mostly got a generic 2000s kids adventure with clichéd characters.
AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING
good
I heart Percy Jackson
amazing should read
I love the book and the
The Lightning Thief is a fun take on the Greek gods, and their interactions with mortal man. The young reader will find themselves immersed in this book; relating with the similar aged characters as themselves and encountering a writing style and narrative are geared towards early teens. Unfortunately, this causes the book to not age well and may disappoint an adult either returning to the story they read in the past, or looking for a new short series. The narrator is decent but has strange inflections, and the voices of the supporting characters can trend towards grating.
