Percy Jackson & the Olympians, often shortened to Percy Jackson, PJO, or PJatO is a pentalogy of fantasy adventure novels written by American author Rick Riordan, and the first book series in the Camp Half-Blood Chronicles.[4] Five supplementary books, along with graphic novel versions of each book have also been released.

As of 2022, the books have sold more than 180 million copies worldwide in more than 35 countries, making it one of the best-selling book series of all time.[5][6] The books have also been on The New York Times Best Seller list for children's book series for 600 weeks.[7]

The first book was adapted into a film titled Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief in 2010, which was commercially successful, but due to major deviations from the books received mixed reviews from fans. An adaptation of the second book, titled Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters, was released in 2013 to mixed reviews as well.[8][9] A TV series adaptation is in development for Disney+, with the release date being unannounced as of January 2022.
