Young-adult readers around the world mourned a little when The Last Olympian—the final chapter in Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson & The Olympians series—was released last year. But it turns out we haven’t seen the last of Percy after all.
Riordan launches his new The Heroes of Olympus series with The Lost Hero, returning readers to Camp Half-Blood and the world of his popular Percy Jackson books. Percy and his friends are now helping train the next generation of demigods at Camp Half-Blood, based on a new prophecy: “Seven half-bloods shall answer the call/ To storm or fire the world must fall/ An oath to keep with a final breath/ And foes bear arms to the Doors of Death.”
Purchasing a copy of The Lost Hero ($18.99) from The King’s English will get you a complimentary signing-line ticket for this special event; additional $5 tickets are available for purchase only to those who buy the book.
