“The Staff of Serapis”You might remember last year, Rick Riordan published “The Son of Sobek” as an extra crossover story in the The Serpent’s Shadow. The story featured both Percy Jackson and Carter Kane together in the same story. It’s crazy when characters jump out of their own series and into other characters’ series, right? Well, Riordan has done it again. He announced on his blog last week that the new U.S. paperback edition of The Mark of Athena in stores now features a story with Annabeth Chase and Sadie Kane! It has the awesome title “The Staff of Serapis.”
If you don’t want to buy
The Mark of Athena paperback, the story will be available in e-formats, with the cover above, on May 20. Or you could, you know, rush to the library and see if they have the new paperback edition with the story at the end. Tell the librarian it MUST be the 2014 paperback edition!
What do you think? Did you like “The Son of Sobek”
enough to want a second story? Do you think Riordan should write an entire series combining all his characters?? Leave a Comment.
This is a big Rick Riordan week for us as not only does the final Kane Chronicles book, The Serpent's Shadow, release today, but the author himself is coming to town--and we want to ask him your questions.
What would you like to know? Questions about Carter or Sadie Kane? Percy Jackson? What Rick Riordan does on his day off? Send in your questions for Rick via the Comments section and we will compile a list to ask him on video this Friday. We’ll let you know when it’s ready to watch, don’t worry, it won’t be long! This Thursday, May 3rd is our cut-off for questions--I can’t wait to see what our readers come up with!
Speaking of waiting, it's been a year since we last saw Carter and Sadie Kane in The Throne of Fire and in that time we wondered, what do Carter and Sadie read when they aren’t tangling with angry gods or trying to save the world? If you've been asking yourself this same question, you're in luck because we have the answer in this exclusive straight from the Kane's themselves:
Sadie Kane: "Reading? You should talk to my brother the genius… Sometimes I read books about London and occasionally I try to learn new hieroglyphics, but mostly I’m too busy with trainees and trying to defeat Apophis.”
