O LADRÃO DE RAIOS: PERCY JACKSON E OS OLIMPIANOS 1

$14.85

Combining Greek mythology, thrilling adventure, and hilarious twists, Rick Riordan’s story about a teenager with ADHD who discovers he is the son of the god of the sea — and must navigate both the human and divine worlds — became a bestseller and created a passionate generation of readers who still follow Percy and his friends’ saga. Now, Intrínseca is re-releasing the five books of the series in a new edition with redesigned cover art, highly requested by fans. The beautiful illustrations by artist Victo Ngai match the style of the newest adventure of the demigod, O cálice dos deuses (published in English as The Chalice of the Gods), which hits bookstores worldwide on September 26.

In this first adventure of the series that won fans all over the world and earned Riordan the title of "storyteller of the gods," we meet Percy Jackson, a 12-year-old boy who’s about to be expelled from boarding school. Again. It’s the sixth time this has happened. Percy has to deal with the challenges of attention deficit disorder and dyslexia, which don’t make life very easy. But lately, mythical creatures and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be stepping out of his school’s Greek mythology books and into real life. Apparently, some powerful beings are very upset with this poor kid.

A series of accidents and mysterious revelations force Percy to leave his hometown of New York and bring him to a very special training camp, where he is prepared for a mission involving extraordinary humans — half-god, half-mortal — and mythological creatures. Zeus’s master bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the one who must retrieve it. With the help of new friends — a satyr and the daughter of a goddess — Percy has ten days to recover the bolt, which represents primordial destruction, and restore peace to Olympus. But to do that, he’ll need to do more than catch a thief. He’ll have to face the father who abandoned him, unravel a prophecy given by the Oracle, and uncover a betrayal more dangerous than the wrath of the gods.
