This category is for questions about the author Rick Riordan. He is well known for his series, Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
No, I don't believe Rick Riordan will be or is being sued, or else millions of kids in North America won't be able to read the next books in The Kane Chronicles or The Heroes of Olympus series.
Yes. Rick Riordan does come to a few schools. That is true.
Like all writer's do, they must carefully observe the world around them, and they can get ideas from things that have happened in the past.
actually rick Riordan made bedtime stories for his kids. he choose myths.... hid kids loved the stories so he made them into books... his students at school loved them... he published them to his students and the passed it on till every on knew about it..... yeah
One night his son, Haley, who is studying Greek myths asked if he could hear some stories about Greek gods and heroes, and when Rick ran out of myths, Haley asked if he could make something up with the same characters. When he finished telling the story 3 nights later, Haley said that he should make it into a book.
I assume his biggest achievement would be his New York times bestsellers but it's just a guess right.....
Rick Riordan was born on June 5th 1964 in San Antonio which is a city of south central Texas south-western United States on the Gulf of Mexico
Before Rick Riordan wrote his first book, he taught English and History for fifteen years. He taught in the public and private middle schools in the San Fransisco Bay Area and in Texas. In 2002 Saint Mary's Hall awarded him with the schools first master teacher award.
They are actually Haley and Patrick
Yes he will and he has made two other series the Lost Hero and The Red Pyramid (Kane)
The name of the book is "Son of Neptune" (Neptune is the Greek counterpart of Poseidon) so I believe the book will be about Percy at the Roman Camp. That being said, Percy should make an appearance in the second book.
The book is scheduled to come out in Fall 2011
The last Olympian, The 39 clues, Last heroes, The red pyramid.
the Percy Jackson series
the maze of bones
the Kane canonicals
and and is writing a new series the first book the lost heros
He has not released any information other than that there will be another Camp Half-Blood series. He has also contributed to the 39 Clues series.
PROBLEM!!!! Percy Jackson fans! it seems there is not going to be a new camp half blood series and if there is its going to be later one he is starting a new series about Egyptian mythology!!!! its going to be released may 4,2010 :( im upset but i guess it will be like Percy maybe not as great but well see its called Kane Chronicles, Book One: The Red Pyramid its about two siblings ill tell you if something new comes out ill have a blog about it our something :P
His next book comes out 2011, it is the second book in The Heroes of Olympus. It will be called The Son of Neptune. If you have read The Lost Hero, the first book, go to the last page. It should tell you there.
Well according to an interview he said this when asked if he had any pets, "...Big Boy, who enjoys eating dog food, Little Boy, who is naturally bigger than Big Boy, and Slinky, the sweetest girl cat you've ever met. We also have an older cat Yoshi, who is now having definite territorial issues, and a golden lab named Sunny, who has no problem with cats as long as they don't eat her dog food."
But according to his website he only has two cats- not four- so this is most likely pretty old.
