I must admit I’m impressed, Sadie. You controlled your magic and controlled Isis. And you, Carter, did well turning into a lizard.

I started to walk away, but she [Clarisse] called out, Percy? Yeah? When you, uh, had that vision about your friends... You were one of them, I promised, Just don't tell anybody, okay? Or I'de have to kill you. A faint smile flickered across her face See you later. See you

I think kids want the same thing from a book that adults want - a fast-paced story, characters worth caring about, humor, surprises, and mystery. A good book always keeps you asking questions, and makes you keep turning pages so you can find out the answers.

I turned and found Dionysus standing there, still in his black suit. Walk with me,” he said. Where to?” I asked suspiciously. Just to the campfire,” he said. “I was beginning to feel better, so I thought I would talk with you a bit. You always manage to annoy me.” Uh, thanks.

After our mom died, her parents (our grandparents) had this big court battle with dad. After six lawyers, two fistfights, and a near fatal attack with a spatula (don't ask), they won the right to keep Sadie with them in England.

I see murky visions of other gods and rival magic. That REALLY didn't sound good. What do you mean? I asked. what OTHER GODS? I don't know, Sadie. But Egypt has always faced challenges from outside –– magicians from elsewhere, even gods from elsewhere. Just be vigilant. ~Ruby & Sadie Kane about...? Possibly Greeks?
