Rick Riordan has done amazing with every single books he has done. I am amazed what he does in every book. I find myself deep in the emotions within books. He will and always be one of my favorite authors. He has found place in my geeky lil' heart. I hope he finds more great success with his books. I am nearly 12 years old ,and every time I get a new book that he has written or presents, I get a rush of excitement then all of my siblings and parents look at me crazy. I, thank you, Rick.
