Son of Neptune Review and Other Stuff
First off, I'm soooooo sorry that I haven't got around to posting but honestly there wasn't much to post about. I did end up finishing the Son of Neptune as mentioned my other post and let me tell you that you'll absolutely LOVE it. I also finished This Isn't What It Looks Like and the ending was very interesting. You do find out who P. Bosch is but I'm not telling anyone. (Hee-hee) Rick posted on his blog recently about his new book too, The Kane Chronicles Survival Guide! Here's the post...
I'm pleased to announce a new addition to the world of the Kane Chronicles! The Kane Chronicles Survival Guide will be published on March 20, 2012.
What's inside? Here's the official description:
Fans of The Kane Chronicles series will adore this gorgeous primer on the people, places, gods, and creatures found in Rick Riordan's #1 New York Times bestselling series. Boasting lenticulars, an easy-to-assemble trading card pyramid, and full-color diagrams and maps, this deluxe, lavishly illustrated guide teaches readers how to compile secret messages, read hieroglyphics, and recite ancient magic spells. Featuring enough information and extras to satisfy avid followers and budding Egyptologists alike, this guide will cast a spell on readers of all ages.
I have seen the final product, and it is awesome. The book will provide tons of information on Ancient Egypt, the Egyptian gods, and the people and places featured in the Kane Chronicles. There are lots of brand new, full-color illustrations. If you enjoyed the Percy Jackson Ultimate Guide, then you will have an idea what this book is like. Hope you guys enjoy it!
Other publishing news:
Kane Chronicles Book 3 -- I've finished the manuscript and it is now in the editing process. The book will be out on time, May 2012. I can't tell you the title yet. We will announce that, reveal the cover and give you the exact release date in a few months, probably in January. Stay tuned for more info.
Heroes of Olympus, Book 3: The Mark of Athena -- I am hard at work on this book right now. It will take one full year to write and publish it, but it will be out on time in the fall of 2012. I'm afraid that's the absolute fastest it can be released (assuming you guys would like the book to be good!). It will be a while before we announce any further information about this title -- probably next summer, after the Kane 3 tour.
And thank you to my amazing readers for continuing to support the books and recommending them to your friends.The Son of Neptune is still rocking along on the bestseller list, celebrating four weeks at #1 on the New York Times children's chapter book list. The Lost Hero just passed fifty-two weeks, one full year, on the same list!
As I get more information on the future titles, I will post it on the blog. But for now, it's back to writing!
Awesome right? I also wanted to tell everybody about a contest called Letters For Literature. You write a letter to the author of a book that really changed your life. You can find the website here
