Wait just a minute, Ares growled. He pointed at Thalia and me. These two are dangerous. It'd be much safer, while we've got them here— Ares, Poseidon interrupted, they are worthy heroes. We will not blast my son to bits. Nor my daughter, Zeus grumbled. She has done well.

Families are messy. Immortal families are eternally messy. Sometimes the best we can do is to remind each other that we're related for better or for worse...and try to keep the maiming and killing to a minimum.

Red cattle, Annabeth said. The cattle of the sun. What? I [Percy] asked. They're sacred to Apollo. Holy cows?

Stacy Schiff is that rare combination: a first-rate historian and a brilliant storyteller. Using a wide range of sources, she spins straw into gold, conjuring the world of Ptolemaic Egypt in full vibrant color, and returning the voice of one of the most powerful, fascinating, and maligned women in history. Cleopatra is impossible to put down.

At first I was protecting you two because I promised. Now even if I hadn't promised, I would. You two are like kittens to me. I won't fail you again. I'll admit I got a lump in my throat. I'd never been called someone's kitten before. Sadie sniffled. She brushed something from under her eye. You're not going to wash us, are you?

Even the gods couldn't devise a fates so twisted.

My dear, I'm a cat. Everything I see is mine.
Rick Riordan
Oh, did you expect me to play fair? Cupid laughed. I am the god of love. I am never fair.

For what it’s worth: trust your feelings. I can’t promise that you’ll never get hurt again, but I can promise you the risk is worth it.

You said your mom is the goddess of balance, I reminded him. The minor gods deserve better, Ethan, but total destruction isn't balance. Kronos doesn't build. He only destroys.

The Cyclopes growled, I don't see very well since the last hero poked my eye out, but you're... NO... LADY... CYCLOPES!

It's all still about having a good story. You have to have a good story as your anchor, as your main focus. So for me, personally, I just like to concentrate on writing the best book I can, and if there's other stuff that goes along with it, that's awesome, as long as the story is central.

Safety from what? Who's after me? Oh, nobody much, Grover said, obviously still miffed about the donkey comment. Just the Lord of the Dead and a few of his blood-thirstiest minions.

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.

They're Lares. House gods. House gods, Percy said. Like...smaller than real gods, but larger than apartment gods?
