 Percy Jackson and the Olympians : the Battle of the Labyrinth (book 4) by Rick Riordan

I love these books!It's filled with danger, mythology and humor. swords that come from pens, hats that turn you invisable and a watch that turns into a shield, all from Percy's adventures in this and his other books.

The best Part though is even though he's in danger he'll crack a joke right thenl. This is just on of the 45 Percy Jackson books, too!
