Rick Riordan Is Keeping Details Under Wraps
Posted: 21 Mar 2010 10:49 PM PDT
Mr. Riordan was interviewed at The Met by those at Mortalnet. He talked about the chances of a prequel series about Thalia, Luke and Annabeth.
He talked about his new Camp Half-Blood series, but remained very tight-lipped about the whole thing and he talked a bit about The Kane Chronicles. Anyways, here’s the interview of Mr. Riordan!
Q: What is the time lapse from the end of The Last Olympian to the beginning of the new Camp Half Blood series?
A: It’s not long, I can’t tell you specifically how long but not long.
Q: How many books will there be in The Kane Chronicles series and in the Camp Half Blood series?
A: There will be 3 books for The Kane Chronicles and 5 books for the Camp Half Blood series.
Q: Will The Kane Chronicles and Camp Half Blood series storylines ever cross paths?
A: No, they exist in the same time in the universe, but they won’t cross paths. That would just get too confusing for the readers and me.
Q: Have the film rights been sold for the entire Percy Jackson and the Olympians series?
A: No, only the first book, with Fox’s option to purchase the next book, if they decide to make another film.
Q: In your tweets from Greece, you said you had heard new Greek myths. Will any of those stories be in the Camp Half Blood series?
A: Yes, some of those stories will be in the new series.
Q: Are you planning to write a prequel of the adventures that Thalia, Luke and Annabeth had before they went to Camp Half Blood?
A: Many people have asked me, and I have thought about it, I’m not really sure. Right now I am too busy with the other two series.
Q: We have heard from the publishers that The Red Pyramid will be an estimated 528 pages. Will the Camp Half Blood series be longer books than those in the Percy Jackson series?
A: Yes, they will be. I can’t give you the number of pages, but they will be longer books.
Q: For The Sea of Monsters movie, could you be the screen writer or executive producer?
A: No, when you sign the rights away, all you can do is hope they will take your input, but it is no guarantee they will use it.
Q: Christof, the Webmaster for Mortalnet.com, is really curious about magic in Percy’s world. Is magic only inherited from godly parents, or is it possible to learn magic that you haven’t inherited?
A: Yes, with Hecate being at camp there will be more magic. But most magic is inherent in the gods. However, like Circe in the first series there are witches. Most of the magic will be in forms of enchanted objects or through godly parents.
Q: Will Annabeth and Percy be active in the next series, or will they become akin to the heroic tales of Theseus and Hercules?
A: They will be very active in the new series.
Q: Kronos can not die. Should readers be ready for his return?
A: There are many other forms of evil to throw at them without Kronos. They will face plenty of dangers in new forms.
Q: In The Kane Chronicles, are you handling Egyptian mythology in general terms, or have you chosen a time period in Egyptian history and specific Pharoahs?
A: The mythology will be in general terms.
Q: How did you prepare for The Kane Chronicles?
A: I spent a lot of time reading.
Q: In The Titan’s Curse, you never fully describe Zoe Nightshade. Can you tell us how you imagined her?
A: That ’s a good question. I never really had a fixed image of her in my head.
Q: Do you ever visit your fan sites?
A: No, because I just don’t have the time. My wife does often.

Kane Chronicles
The amazing Percy Jackson author, Rick Riordan has made another series called The Kane Chronicles, and it is about Ejyptian myths and gods. We are sooo exited.
Rick Riordan’s best-selling “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” series asked a provocative question: what if the Greek Gods were real? Riordan’s new series, “The Kane Chronicles” poses another question that will no doubt hook many readers: what if the Egyptian Gods were real?
The “Percy” series, which told the story of a young boy who leans that he’s the son of Poseidon, went on to sell more than 9 million copies in the U.S., according to the publisher, Disney-Hyperion Books, and a movie made from the first book,”Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief,” is due out Feb. 12, and stars actor Logan Lerman. The “Percy” series has become a favorite of young readers, particularly boys, who latch on to the book’s themes of alienation and reconciliation, rivalry and friendship–not to mention the fact that it features a boatload of cool mythological monsters.
Riordan’s new series kicks off with the release of “The Kane Chronicles, Book One: The Red Pyramid.” Carter and Sadie Kane are the descendants of powerful Egyptian magicians; when an accident turns Egyptian gods loose in the modern world, the youngsters are the only ones who can come to the rescue. www.thekanechronicles.com. The book is due out May 4.
Can’t wait that long? Below, Speakeasy has an exclusive mini-excerpt from Rick Riordan’s “The Kane Chronicles, Book One: The Red Pyramid“. Here it is:
We only have a few hours, so listen carefully.
If you’re hearing this story, you’re already in danger. Sadie and I might be your only chance.
Go to the school. Find the locker. I won’t tell you which school or which locker, because if you’re the right person, you’ll find it. The combination is 13/32/33. By the time you finish listening, you’ll know what those numbers mean. Just remember the story we’re about to tell you isn’t complete yet. How it ends will depend on you.
The most important thing: when you open the package and find what’s inside, don’t keep it longer than a week. Sure, it’ll be tempting. I mean, it will grant you almost unlimited power. But if you possess it too long, it will consume you. Learn its secrets quickly and pass it on. Hide it for the next person, the way Sadie and I did for you. Then be prepared for your life to get very interesting.
Okay, Sadie is telling me to stop stalling and get on with the story. Fine. I guess it started in London, the night our dad blew up the British Museum.
So what did you think? You can leave your thoughts about “Percy Jackson” and the coming “Kane Chronicles” in the comments section. Source:

One Stop Game Shop
Look for us on the big screen as the One Stop Game Shop is being advertized. It is the coolest birthday party experience in the area that one can have. I had it at my birthday party, and it was so cool! It is a trailer equiped with four hi definition flat screen tv's and the different gaming consols. It was able to fit me and all of my friends in it for a great time of fun. We all like to play games, so I highly recomend it for your birthday, or any party event that your going to have. The cool thing about the One Stop Game Shop is that it can be taken to your house and set up for any event. It is also very affordable. Rent it you won't regret it!
