| So.... Sorry Im very late but School trying to move and all is a hassle. Either way let ask The Question! "What's your favorite Rick Riordan Book?" Personally I like all his stuff (except Kane Chronicles, Not an Egyptian God fan. Please don't hurt me because of it.) I'm more into Graphic Novels/Morbid Literature/ War Stories. (Very Big Edgar Allan Poe fan) Please post and respond! Don't forget we don't judge here. See you all til Next Time! | |

| I quite like the Kane Chronicles, I've always liked Egyptian gods. Though, because it made me so happy, my favourite would have to be The House of Hades. I don't like his new series, the first bit was good, really good, but after the EVENT (people will know what I mean if they've read it), it just went downhill and seemed a bit pointless to me. I personally think his publishers arre just trying to get more money out of his fans, playing off the franchise a lot... | |

| Yeah. They are. I missed the Gravity of the situation and how powerful the Gods and enemies felt in The Percy Jackson series. His other work are good but to Kiddy due to his Publishers being Disney and stuff. He could be great again but its whateves. It would be better to get a revamp then more series. | |

| I liked the PJ series and I still haven't finished the House of Hades yet... But I enjoyed both the PJ & Heroes of Olympus series so far.
(Btw, you're a Poe fan, I very much enjoy Robert Frost if we're talking poetry.) | |

| I loved both PJ series, but was disappointed with the last book. I wanted to like the Kane Chronicles, but I thought that the writing in that series wasn't as good, much to my disappointment. I think because he was writing the Kane books while he was finishing the Percy books it didn't have the potential it could have. I found the characters very annoying and with not much room for character development. I'm loving the Magnus Chase book so far. {haven't had time to finish it yet} and I'm looking forward to his book The Apollo Trials. | |

| I feel like Leo has the most room for development and they all have little quirks but I see you're point. In Heroes of Olympus, Leo is the only one I see slowly developing. Jason and Piper already seem perfect which doesn't make a good story. | |

| Here are some things I think he should write, a series of short stories about Leo and Calypso, a story just about Reyna, and something about the next generation of demigods{mostly because I want more Percabeth} | |

| Yeah. I agree with you there but I think he's putting that saga to rest. | |

| (Frost is pretty good. But I just love Edgar and his flow.) Either way I just saw that Apollo trials and I want to read it NOW! After I try out the Magnus book though. Is I Magnus good? But sometimes I would like to think of the Concept of a More Graphic Adult-ish version of PJ would be really good. Like I said I like E.A.P, so details of Monsters Eating Mortals alive (Dont want to get too dark in this post but you get the jest) and stuff like that would really get your mind into the Book.

| Magnus is bad. And Jason/Piper was too quick and too perfect for my tastes. | |

| Just didn't give me that 'original' vibe. Kane Chronicles really did. | |

| I never really enjoyed Kane Chronicles and truth be told, I haven't read much more from Rick Riordan either... | |
