CAN PEOPLE JUST STOP PUTTING "MOST LIKELY REFERS TO PERCY JACKSON" - it's a speculation and no matter how sure you are of that, it doesn't change the fact that it's a speculation

Again about Reference no. 2
Reference no 2 says: Who are the other four mentioned in the prophesy?''' The answer may lie in another camp miles away, where a new camper has shown up and appears to be the son of Neptune, god of the sea. . .''' CLEARLY, it's referring to a son of the Sea God, but are we 100% sure it's Percy (It did not say, a new Camper named Percy Jackson...) i think we should wait for more info... Do people still read Talk Pages??? 112.207.58.11 03:59, March 6, 2011 (UTC) (Steamygoreng... not Banned)

So I was surfin the web, and I checked out the normal wikipedia page for "The Son of Neptune" and they said "On Rick Riordan's website, he confirms that the titular son of Neptune is indeed Percy, not a Roman camper." But the link they use for this shows me nothing. Does anyone know if this is someone's speculation when they set up that page, or did Riordan in fact confirm Percy as the Son of Neptune? &quot;Beware the Jabberwokk my son; The jaws that bite, the claws that scratch.&quot; (talk &bull; contribs) 20:07, March 27, 2011 (UTC)

It is pretty obvious that Percy is the main character in the new book. He was swapped with Jason and when Jason was put in the Greek camp, Percy was put in the Roman Camp by Hera. So in Son of Neptune its about Percy in the Roman Camp where he is Son of Neptune the roman version of Posieden

The only thing that is obvious is that Percy will be IN the book, not that it will be with his point of view, we might be introduced to another son of Posiedon (I.e. Neptune) who ends up trying to help keep Percy alive because of orders from his father...76.95.42.121 14:13, May 8, 2011 (UTC)

It could be pretinent to note that the Roman version of the gods made no such pact with percy concerning the children of Roma. If this is indeed the case, and that the Roman forms of the gods have no obligation to claim their demigod children, then there could very well be a 'Hermes' cabin on the west coast. Remember where all the minor and unclaimed children went in Half-Blood in Manhattan? In the Roman camp, I'm sure there's the same setup going on and that there may be a child of Neptune unclaimed in the house of Remus e Romulus.

son of neptune
soooo if u read the 1st book then the 7 demigods will one be percy huh???

Yeah he is so is Leo, Jason and Piper they are all part of the seven the other 3 should be introduced in next couple of books. Of the seven there will probably be a roman kid or two.220.236.234.86 11:23, May 8, 2011 (UTC)

There's talk about a son or daughter of a Titan.
As stated above, there has been numerous accounts of my meeting of other fans and other sites say that there will be a son or daughter of Cronus (Chronos (Kronos)) or Typhon. I have disputed these ideas saying I had not seen such proof or evidence to support their claims. Does anyone have any information on the fact that one of the seven heroes may be a child of a titan? Also, does anyone else find it often ridiculously odd that all the prophecies just happen to mention teenagers coming of age rather than an adult or child? I can see why, these are adolescent's books. Still, though, think that it would be... interesting to see a 20-30 year old son of the Titan of time commanding an army of monsters into the heart of hell. Again, does anyone have any knowlege upon this other than what is in the books and on the website?

I think it will be imposible for Kronos to have a son or Typhon as they spent their time being trap. And besides Kronos is too busy trying to rise up and destroy the western civilization to have an afair with a human.I will kill you! (talk &bull; contribs) 10:16, May 11, 2011 (UTC)

Chiron is a son of Kronos and he will most likely appear in the Son of Neptune. So I guess those people are right to a small degree. Darkcloud1111 ~Fastest Hero Alive  10:37, May 11, 2011 (UTC)

i guess u are right Dark

Who are the other voices?
We know 2 three things that are important from the preview (at least I think they are important). The first is that, indeed, Percy has returned as a main character of our books, and since we can assume that the narrators of the books are one of the seven demigods in the prophecy, we have #4 lined up and waiting for us. The second is that this writing format is similar to the first book, indicating that we can probably bet on there be two more demigods who will narrate for us, the question is who are they (friends that Jason mentioned, or will it be two new characters like Piper and Leo were?). Finally the third point is that, as hinted in the preview of "The Son of Neptune" the Roman Camp is going to be attacked soon, and as usually Percy's quest will have something to do with preventing it. So who do you think is going to narrate alongside Percy? I think it we can remove the possibilty of another child of Zeus, Hephaestus, Aphrodite, or Poseidon because there is really no need to repeat powers.&quot;Beware the Jabberwokk my son; The jaws that bite, the claws that scratch.&quot; (talk &bull; contribs) 14:59, May 26, 2011 (UTC)

Unfortunatley, I can´t read the preview. I can´t open it. But I think that the demigods from the roman Camp that are mentioned in the prophecy will be friends of Jason, or at least one friend of him. Percy and Jason both have to have someone from their past, who can help them to bring their memorys back (Annabeth and Reyna, I think)Menara (talk &bull; contribs) 16:43, May 26, 2011 (UTC)

To the post above, saying Annabeth and Reyna, who's to say that Jason wasn't a homosexual during his time at the roman camp? There was absolutely no context saying that he was all one way or all the other, just that he manipulated the mist to make a girl think that she liked him for a few months... So yeah, don't be a homophobe/sexist!

The new sneak peek
I just read and posted a blog about it. It's nice. Ricorum (talk &bull; contribs) 20:54, May 26, 2011 (UTC)

Cover Art
I love the American cover art for the Son of Neptune I can't wait to see what the English cover looks like after seeing the American version.Charmedh2ogirl (talk &bull; contribs) 12:19, May 27, 2011 (UTC)

what with the plot point?
In the wikia page for the SoN it has a clear referance to a chapter 2 i.e carrying "June" (Juno) to camp0. however i believe this may be a fanfic written after the chapters release. I mean June ? A bit obvious for riordian! if not anyone have a link.BURN IT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 18:34, June 2, 2011 (UTC)

Here's the link you've been asking for: http://www.mortalnet.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&%20t=228 I would agree that it does seem obvious for Riordan but it's his creative license. The excerpt is a reading of chapter 2 from the lecture Rick Riordan did in NYC on May 25, 2011. That was the day he released the sneak preview of Son of Neptune. People who went have been talking about June and it bothered me that it wasn't in the first chapter. Dcmjlive (talk &bull; contribs) 03:27, June 1, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Okay ive read it and it IS way too obvious. Hera is definatly playing favourites. Jason gets a pretty girl and the funniest charecter in the book with fire powers while percy is all alone chased by gorgans and will have to lose the curse? that sucks. not to mention the romans will probably imprison/kill him.BURN IT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 18:34, June 2, 2011 (UTC)

a) please sign your posts, b) Percy already has a girl, its implied that Jason did not have a girl before Hera snagged his memories, c) Hera already did not like Percy, so making him run a bit while being hounded by Gorgons is, as far as she is concerned, a little bit of harmless fun on his part, d) dunno what all the prophecies says, but Percy has yet to meet his two questing companions, and e) currently he has the blessing of Lupa to find the camp, so the Romans will not try and kill him just yet. &quot;Beware the Jabberwokk my son; The jaws that bite, the claws that scratch.&quot; (talk &bull; contribs) 21:46, June 1, 2011 (UTC)

You forgot to say f) the funniest character in the book with fire powers is LEO. And g) If he still had the Achilles curse, he would be too obvious and the Romans would know he's Greek right away. Dcmjlive (talk &bull; contribs) 04:16, June 2, 2011 (UTC) 18:34, June 2, 2011 (UTC)

Iwill explain to you WHY PERCY MAY NOT BE THE SON OF NEPTUNE:
if you carefully read 4th reference, i'll quote it for you:

True, we have Tyson, for example, who is also a son of Poseidon, but not a demigod....although each of the books is about a demigod so who knows eh? &quot;Beware the Jabberwokk my son; The jaws that bite, the claws that scratch.&quot; (talk &bull; contribs) 15:37, June 3, 2011 (UTC)
 * Terry of Mortalnet asked Rick, “In the same way that Thalia is a daughter of Zeus and Jason a son of Jupiter, Percy could NOT be the son of Neptune. Could he?”Rick answered saying, “Well if Percy is going to show up at the Roman camp will all his abilities to control water and such, it’s safer for the Roman campers to think he is a son of Neptune and not Poseidon. Also there are OTHER reasons for naming the book Son of Neptune. I’ll just let you ponder that.” SΓΣamy Goreng 11:02, June 3, 2011 (UTC)

I personaly think Triton Poseidons/Neptunes Immortal son, has allied himself with the giants to destroy Percy.

It makes sense as Poseidon openly claimed Percy was his favourite son and after Percy saved Olympus he was probably talking bout him nonstop. BURN IT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 21:32, June 3, 2011 (UTC)

Uncomfirmed Rumor
This passage keeps comming up

Upon his escape, he thinks about going to the ocean as he would be at his strongest there. However, upon seeing the Roman guards at the door, he felt that it was not his territory. He is caught off-guard by an old lady named June who tells him that he is right and the door is the entrance to the Roman Camp Half-Blood. June gives him a choice. He could leave her defenseless to the Gorgons and escape into the ocean where he could live to an old age or instead, he could carry her "across the highway, through the tunnel, across the river" and to the camp. If he chose the latter, Percy would slowly regain his memories, lose the mark of Achilles, and have the chance to save the Gods, the world and his friends. He chooses this alternative and carries June to camp.

Frankly, because their quote and quote 'source' is not Rick's official site, and the date they give is off when compared to its adding on the site and the confirmed preview. So, until its on an official sight, lets leave it out.

Rick read it as an expert PerseusJackson -Jordan Terraemotus Tempestas  12:19, June 4, 2011 (UTC)

It's not on an offical sight, so its unconfirmed for now. If it appears on the official sight, add it on KrspaceT (talk &bull; contribs) 13:16, June 4, 2011 (UTC)

First of all, it is spelt as SITE not SIGHT. Second, sources are already verified, the paragraph is also in reference to the lecture Rick Riordan did on May 25 in New York City, read by an expert narrator, transcribed by one of the fans on mortalnet. I've already spoken with the transcriber and yes, it's official.Dcmjlive (talk &bull; contribs) 15:54, June 4, 2011 (UTC)
