Percy Jackson and the Olympians series--More Info

If you're interested in more information about the Percy Jackson series, drop by Rick Riordan's site at:

http://www.rickriordan.com/children.htm



What's cool about this site is that it shows the cover art, talks about each book in the series, and offers links to video of Rick Riordan reading from the series.

I had mistakenly thought that Book 4 might be the last of the Percy Jackson books, having read in Horn Book that it was the "penultimate" book of the series. I need to use the dictionary more often. Turns out "penultimate" means "next to last". Good news for all of us Percy Jackson fans!

    So I got the latest book The Battle of the Labyrinth (after waiting in line 3 hours for Rick Riordan to sign it last night). So I only got a chance to read the first couple of chapters.

    I have a theory that Luke (in the second book Hermes ask Percy to help save Luke) will redeem himself at the end of the final book. On a different note, I saw that though this is the last of this series (Lightning Thief); there may be other books from the characters of the half-blood camp.
