Kind of. Rick Riordan has take it upon himself to work on two series, and he hopes to release two books a year. The Egyptian one will the The Kane Chronicles, a different series entirely, while there will be a second Camp Half-Blood series, the title of which is unknown.

To be honest, the first time I read it, I loved them. The second time, I realized that there were some touchy moments...really stupid things like the chapter titles, but I still loved them. Now, after seeing the movie. I can not stand to even hear the name of the books. It is terrible that something like that piece of trash could come out of someone's head. I want to literally go to the bathroom on the script, then the director, then the actors.

 

It was that terrible. I burned my ticket stub in the fire.

Luke isn't one of children of the big three and he was the guy of the prophecy!?!? Anyone else think that way as well?

I've seen the movie and it was awesome.

Haven't read the books yet though.

I've been told numerous times that the books are better than the movie and that if you read the books the movie will seem terrible.

I enjoyed the movie so I think I should be getting my hands on the books ^__^

It does get darker, but thats what I like about it. I dont like it to always be the little 9 year old sense of humour to it the whole time. Its nice to have a little bit more maturity considering that he is 14. I mean come on. Fourteen year olds are immature, but not quite like that.

 

I also liked seeing Apollo, Artemis, Aphrodite, and Athena all be revealed together in the same book, considering that they are my favorite Gods and Godesses.

Apollo has to be my favorite, just because we are so alike (except for the immortality and the sun thing)...and I won't be the judge on the good looking. But I love archery and the arts.

 

And you're right, Athena and Aphrodite were...yeah, but Artemis was well written.

Man if Apollo is the master of Marksmanship I always wondered if there would be guns with Celestial Bronze bullets that would be pure greatness. Anyways the best series I've ever read next to Harry Potter. Its a must have book, it seems its as big as Harry Potter it resembles Harry Potter, for example 3 friends 2 guys 1 girl go out in quests and go to a camp/academy to train their powers. In conclusion Percy Jackson and the Olympians is the American version of Harry Potter. Well done Rick Riodrian
