Answer 2

The conflict, at least in the book, is that Percy Jackson is the prime suspect of stealing Zeus's, Greek God and Lord of Olympus, master lightning bolt (hence the name of the book being 'THE LIGHTNING THIEF'). Poseidon, Percy's father, is accused of stealing the bolt, soon afterwards, he admits that he broke the sacred oath the three gods (Hades, Poseidon, and Zeus) had and had a child (Percy). Then Zeus thinks Percy stole the bolt and now Percy must find the real thief and the bolt and return it to Zeus in Olympus before a war of the gods rages.
