One of my all time favorite series is Percy Jackson and the Olympians. It is a great 5 book series that ( depending on how fast you read) can keep you entertained for quite some time. I would highly recommended this series for anyone that likes mythical fantasy. Basically in the book the Greek gods are real, and they have kids with mortals these kids are called half-bloods and monsters hunt them. They have some differences from normal mortals, but you can read the books to find out what.
