    In ancient Greek myth, Perseus and his mother Danae were exiled after Danae’s father, King Akrisios, found out that Danae had been impregnated by Zeus. After finding refuge in Seriphos with Diktys, a fisherman, Danae was pursued by King Polydektes, ruler of Seriphos. In love with Danae, Polydektes “schemed to get rid of the now grown-up Perseus.” The Riordan equivalent to King Polydektes would be Gabe Ugliano, Percy’s stepfather who is constantly playing poker, whom Percy nicknamed “Smelly Gabe” and describes as “nice the first thirty seconds we knew him, then showed his true colors as a world-class jerk.” While Gabe may not be in pursuit of Sally Jackson, Percy’s mother, in the same way that Polydektes was, Gabe still attempts to push Percy out of the household in other ways, like sending Percy away to boarding school and turning Percy’s bedroom into a storage place for his own possessions. Furthermore, in the ancient myth of Perseus, after returning to Seriphos from his quest, he discovers that his mother Danae had taken refuge from Polydektes’ violence. Angered by this, Perseus uses the decapitated Medusa head to petrify Polydektes. After returning home to New York City after his own quest, Percy realizes that Gabe had been physically abusing Percy’s mom Sally. After the instance that Percy…

    Instead of simply being gifted with magic, Percy is the son of a Greek God. His friends aren’t mere mortals with spell books. They are Annabeth, the daughter of Athena, and Grover, a satyr. The section of school that hates him isn’t the old home of the series’ big evil, but the most competitive section of students, the children of the God of War, Ares. And instead of Quidditch, Percy finds himself participating in a chariot race. The world of The Lightning Thief brings Greek mythology into the modern world. Who knew that Mount Olympus was located on floor 1000 of the Empire State Building? Or that the Greek gods are responsible for the spread of Western civilization? Unbeknownst to us, we walk among monsters who scour the Earth hoping to find the children of Gods before the Gods do in order to eliminate their competition.…
