I want the book so bad, but I'll be damned if Rick doesn't come out with a new book every few months, I don't have the money to keep up, hell, I think I've fallen behind two books in the Kane Chronicles, one in the Heroes of Olympus, not to mention I'm trying to read the Rot and Ruin series which doesn't simplify anything.

I guess he does make a few, minor, in my opinion, mistakes. He's writing a bunch of books at a time, and, to be quite fair, it's his editor's job to notice these mistakes and tell him to fix them, so Rick isn't truly to blame.
