Four huge talents from the comic book industry contributed to this adaptation of the classic that has sold millions of copies worldwide, has been on the New York Times best-seller list for more than twelve years, and is the basis of an 8-episode series on Disney+. Mythological monsters and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be walking out of the pages of twelve-year-old Percy Jackson's textbooks 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, he and his friends have just ten days to find and return Zeus's stolen property and bring peace to a warring Mount Olympus. Series creator Rick Riordan joins forces with four of the biggest names in comic books to tell the story of a boy who must unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Dimensions | 5.96 x 0.32 x 8.94 inches | | Edition | Media tie-in | | Grade Level | 3 - 7 | | Isbn 10 | 1368100821 | | Isbn 13 | 978-1368100823 | | Item Weight | 9.6 ounces | | Language | English | | Part Of Series | Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Graphic Novel | | Print Length | 128 pages | | Publication Date | November 21, 2023 | | Publisher | Disney Hyperion | | Reading Age | 9 - 12 years, from customers | ## Images ![Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief The Graphic Novel (paperback) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/819kZcNEp4L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Recommended *by on Reviewed in the United States June 16, 2026* Well made, quality, and my son loved reading it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Great Companion to the Series *by on Reviewed in the United States August 26, 2020* I see a lot of complaints that this is NOT the original novel, and I have to say: Of course it isn't. This is more of a companion piece - a cliff notes version; which is not to say that this is a bad thing. It really isn't.I do agree that it's short; yes, it is. But even the original series itself feels short if, like me, you're somebody who really gets into the stories they read. Also, some parts have been left out. Important parts that set up the future books. But This book just gives the reader the incentive (as it should) to then read (or re-read) the novels themselves, and to then fill the missing parts in and for me, it serves that purpose and then some.The main purpose this companion serves for me is the visual aspect. I love the English language and am actually a linguistics genius, but I have always preferred the visual aspect of media and entertainment. However, while I am one of the few who actually enjoyed the film version (to an extent), I wasn't really pleased with some of the aesthetics, and I did not appreciate some of the casting choices either, Annabeth Chase being one of the bigger ones. With that being said, I was actually ecstatic when I learned that there may possibly be a TV adaptation of the series, and I ordered this set to get an idea of the art style behind the characters, and this novel served that purpose beautifully. I will admit that some of the characters look a little more...developed, for their ages, but it's nice to get an idea of where the TV adaptation can go and, for that, I applaud these graphic novels wholeheartedly. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It’s ok I guess *by on Reviewed in the United States June 13, 2026* It is a good book with nice images but it lacks a lot of the original book but still good ## Frequently Bought Together - Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief The Graphic Novel (paperbac k) (Percy Jackson & the Olympians) - The Sea of Monsters: The Graphic Novel (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book 2) (Percy Jackson & the Olympians) - The Titan's Curse: The Graphic Novel (Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series, Book 3) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/521493739-percy-jackson-and-the-olympians-the-lightning-thief-the-graphic](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/521493739-percy-jackson-and-the-olympians-the-lightning-thief-the-graphic) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-20*
