I thought some characters maybe will die, like Josephine, Em, some demigods and people, but I didn't think that Riordan would kill one of his main characters. Because, this has never happened before. He didn't kill any of the main characters before. Luke was a main character, but he doesn't count because tecnically he wasn't one of the main 'hero' of the story. In the books, always minor and side characters ended up dying. Like Zoe and Bianca, we only knew them through one book. Charles and Silena, was also side characters. Bob, Damasen ect were side characters too. But on the other hand, we have 7 main characters in the HoO, and none of them died. That's why I didn't think Riordan can really kill one of the 7. I didn't think that he can kill Grover, either. Because he was one of the main characters in the Pjo series. And, when I was read that he killed Jason, I was surprised. Because Riordan is/was not kind of a writer who kills his own main characters. Weren't there complaints about Rick R. 'not' doing enough to spice things up with his writing?
