220: Percy Jackson either used to or does play basketball, noting the sport more than once throughout his various narrations.

221: Jason Grace plays not only lacrosse but tennis at Edgarton Day and Boarding School in Pasadena, keeping his lacrosse stick and tennis racket next to his Imperial gold gladius in his room.

222: Carter Kane and his father, Julius Kane, love basketball. However, he initially proves he’s bad at the sport, failing to play properly and getting schooled by literal baboons, who also love the sport.

223: Magnus Chase isn't good at baseball, which he claims and displays when Surt throws a molten asphalt projectile, missing the fastball and getting fatally wounded, leading to his death.

Warning, spoilers for the Aru Shah series ahead!

I recently finished the pandava quintet and wanted to make this post to share my thoughts on the series. I liked the writing a lot, it felt quite similar to Rick's, the humor was good and the characters were relatable to me. I found it a bit difficult to keep track of all the names and storys of hindu mythology because there is so much of them included in the books and I have never done any research on it. Never the less, I enjoyed the books. Also, I found it interesting that both: Percy and Aru were said to drool while they sleep. The last book of the series, the nectar of immortality, did not sit well with me. It felt a bit rushed, and I disliked the ending. Everything was solved much too fast in my opinion, it is a similar reason to why I'm not a big fan of boo. Kara was just gone and everybody was fine with that, all problems connected to her simply disappeared. Also, their weapons being destroyed was a huge change, they had to find their way without them, adapt, and they were doing great, but then the weapons just came back. It would have been better if they found new sources of power to beat the sleeper. Maybe learn to harness their powers without having to channel them through celestial weapons like Nikita and Sheela do. But having the weapons return so quickly stopped the character arcs in a way, that is just my opinion. I would like to hear your thoughts on the series, feel welcome to share!

So, I’ve listened to the Percy Jackson musical a few times, and even though it’s far from the best, I do like it. I believe that if I didn’t love pjo the way I do, I wouldn’t like the musical that much. Not that the music is bad, it’s actually pretty good, I just fell like it’s a musical for Percy Jackson fans, not theater fans. (I could be wrong, that’s just my opinion)

That being said, I still really enjoy listening to it. It makes me feel like I’m in the story, and it always makes me laugh when I think about the characters actually singing…like, in the books…

Do you like the musical?

What’s your opinion on the music?

What is your favorite song?

This is something I really loved, and I'd like to share it with y'all, so TA-DA! If you love this too, please comment below! :)

Percy is trapped in Tartarus with Annabeth. Their following Kelli and the rest of the emposuai, looking for answers and way out. But Kelli spot them and is about to kill them. But just then a silver being jumps to the rescue.

“It wasn't possible that a huge silvery figure could drop from the sky and stomp Kelli flat, [...] but that's exactly what happened.”

-Percy Jackson, The House Of Hades.

This was Bob. “Percy's Friend,” Bob had said. He then said that he heard Percy call for him at Hades palace. Soon the 3 go through Tartarus together. After long, they meet the arai, who's job is to dish out curses to souls who caused pain.

The arai tell Bob of what Percy did to him, Bob tries to fight back the anger, but then he give in.

But what I love about the whole thing is this...

“Did he visit you? the arai asked, after he stole your memory?

'No,' Bob murmured. [...] 'The other one did.'

[...] 'The other one?' Percy asked.

'Nico,' Bob scowled at him, his eyes full of hurt, 'Nico visited. Told me about Percy. Said Percy was good. Said he was a friend. That was why Bob helped.'

'But...'”

-Percy Jackson, The House Of Hades

Now, I can't quote more, it's too much for me to copy, but it's on Page 240 of The House Of Hades, and here's a quick summary: Percy thinks about all the people he's helped/met/supported him but then forgotten in the next minute. He realizes that Nico doesn't do this, Nico is better then him. Much later, he even says thank you to Nico was being kind to Bob when he wasn't.

I love this because it show even if Nico acts like he doesn't care, in the inside he's kind and polite. Even with much loss, he's puts others' first. and goes out of his way to at least meet them. I know meeting someone doesn't seem all too kind, but it is. If someone I hardly knew came visited me just to say Hi and know if I was well and OK after they hurt me in the past, I'd be touched much. It'd show they care, and if I was in trouble and I could trust them.

Percy does big deeds that save the world, but it's the small ones that matter most!

Percy learns from this, and I think he's working to get better now.

This whole thing made me think a lot. And I really love the takeaway!

Please share you thoughts on the matter, I'd love to know! :)

Hope your well,

And Goodbye for now!

For me it was a DOD spoiler. In year six the school let us pick a book to keep as a gift, so when I went to go get mine the teacher picked up DOD and said "You might like this one. " (she knew I liked pjo) and I told her I already had that at home, then a boy turned to me and said *spoiler alert* "you know dev is a traitor" and I felt like punching him.

And when I first started reading pjo I had this habit of going to the last page and reading the last line so when I was reading SOM I did that and found that thalia came back to life, not really a spoiler but still.

There is no real porper reason I'm talking about this, but I just liked this topic, and I'd like to know what other fans think.

Please note I've just started the Krane series (right now I'm on Book#1) so I'll only be talking about whatever I know.

There dynamic is odd, but I'd say it's like a lot of real life sibling too. Sadie and Carter have said again and again how they find each other annoying and dumb. But if anyone of them needs help, the other rushes to the reause.

One example of Carter helping Sadie(and is so far, my favorite sibling part), is when in the 1st book, Sadie is stuck as Kite and is panicking, as this is the 2nd time she's got stuck and she'd hardly managed to get out Kite-form the 1st time. Carter understood was was going through Sadie's mind, he knew how it felt to be stuck, but he'd managed to form back to a human. Carter sat down with Kite-Sadie and just talked - Calming Sadie down with silly, super embarrassing stories, like how he screamed like girl one time when he found a scorpion in his sock. Sadie slowly stopped to panic and listened. This helps her come back human form. Sadie later says in her POV that she wasn't tempted to tease Carter about any of the stories she heard, infact, she was sightly grateful for the help. This, I'd say, is huge; Sadie always says how 'lizard-brain' her brother is, but in those pages, she very happy for the help.

Outside, to anyone else, they'll always say, “Gods, he's/she's annoying,” but inside, really inside, they care for each other deeply. This and many other parts show this hidden care they have for each other.

I may write more about their dynamic later, as I read more books, but I'm not so sure.

I just wanted to share my view to other fans, and see their thoughts; If you want to share you views, please add them in the comments! :)

I hope this was useful in some way to anyone!

You were confused about something in a book in the Riordanverse but kept reading and enjoying the plot anyway, never fully understanding?

Me, I've never fully understood how the Doors of Death and Thanatos worked in HOO. There was still a problem after freeing Thanatos, but apparently it covered mortal deaths and meant monsters still died, even if they could just go back through the doors, and since Gaea chained them down, did they constantly move so monsters had to search and spend longer than the one-way path they now took in HOH before they cut the chains? And does this mean that while all monsters in HOO just went through the House of Hades every time but came out of a random spot pre-HOO, wherever the Doors happened to be?
