The Last Olympian by Rick Riordan
This is the last installment to the Percy Jackson series. This is a fabulous adventure that takes classic Greek mythology and puts it in the modern world (Mount Olympus is on the top of the Empire State building). Percy Jackson,15 year-old, son of Neptune, is a demigod and hero, who thinks he is fated to sacrifice himself on his 16th birthday to save the world from Titan control. Epic battles, soul searching, love triangles and incredible monsters make this a wild and satisfying read--it is also really humorous! Get students started with The Lightning Thief, the first book in the series. This is a good book for adventure readers, Harry Potter fans, fantasy readers and students looking for a laugh.
