I’m a big Percy Jackson fan and have read all of the books and accompanying series. The movies divert from the original source material. Rick Riordan himself has said he didn’t like them at all. They change the entire plot and premise and besides, the characters start off as 13 NOT 16 like portrayed in the movies. The books are much better, in regards to character development, plot and setting. My advice? READ THE BOOKS (they’re awesome!)

Hope this helps :)(less)
