Description

• #SeaOfMonstersWeek is coming to a close, but we’re primed and ready for #TitansCurseWeek!
• April 19 seemed to be a pretty big day for book releases.
• First up, we’ve got the Aru Shah and the End of Time graphic novel.
• Oh, and don’t miss the Jambavan article on Read Riordan.
• Then we’ve got Fevered Star by Rebecca Roanhorse (book 2 in the Between Earth and Sky series).
• Lastly, don’t forget about Flirting with Fate by J.C. Cervantes.
• This week, we also got the announcement of Roshani Chokshi’s new book, The Last Tale of the Flower Bride.
• 
  Rick thanks the fans for putting Daughter of the Deep on the NYT bestsellers list for 25 weeks, and gives us an update on the screenplay.
• We also get a little update on the Kane Chronicles movie, as well as the Solaneglo book.
• Did you catch the chat between Rick Riordan and Daniel José Older?
• Do you know what well-known author helped him come up with the title Ballad & Dagger?
• We’ve also got a brand new Rick blog post to discuss!
• First up, a reminder that Rick is no longer on social media and that Ashlee Latimer posts from his accounts.
• Annabeth and Grover casting will be soon!
• Will Walker dye his hair black? Does Rick care if Annabeth is blonde?
• And we get some more reassurance that this adaptation is going to be awesome.

• How did we feel about The Adam Project the first time we watched it? What about the second?
• Surprising no one, we both really loved this one.
• Ryan Reynolds is always funny, but Walker really held his own.
• We talk about our favorite scenes and lines from the movie—ones that really remind us of Percy Jackson.
• There are even some shots from the movie that look like they could be from the show.
• Walker is going to be such a sassy Percy, and we are ready for it!
• Can’t you just imagine him going toe-to-toe with Ares?
• Walker is a great physical actor, and that’s going to come in handy for this show.
• Adam and his mom’s relationship is a little snarkier than Percy and Sally’s, but we can’t wait to see it play out on screen.
• Speaking of moms, did you recognize Catherine Keener?
• The Maya/Adam standoff is not wholly unlike the Ares/Percy standoff.
• We’re still curious how that scene at the end is going to play out.
• It’s totally a lightsaber.
• There are so many scenes from Lightning Thief that will be awesome to see on screen, especially now that we know Walker is playing Percy.
• 
  The Adam Project proves Walker Scobell has the capacity to do all sorts of roles.
• We’re so excited for this!!!

• Kristen’s really working on those brief recaps.
• It’s time to discuss Percy Jackson and the Titan’s Curse chapter 15!
• Hank and Chuck were pretty fantastic.
• But what does it look like back at the dam with the statues missing?
• It’s cool that Sally can see through the Mist.
• There is so much more Rachel Elizabeth Dare to come.
• Nereus is basically a fish leprechaun.
• Karen stands by her love of Bessie.
• Did you know the origins of the manticore?
• Was Dr. Thorn or Kronos weaving some sort of magic over Thalia, or was she simply thinking the whole situation through?
• After all, she has valid reasons to be mad at Zeus and the Olympians.
• Maybe Mr. D does care about Peter Johnson?
• This whole scene was pretty spectacular.
• Now it’s time for Titan’s Curse chapter 16!
• We finally know for sure who Zoë’s hero was.
• Can you believe Percy sacrificed the Nimean lion skin?
• Is no one worried about Grover!?
• The Chases are kind of…great?
• It was so interesting meeting Annabeth’s dad for the first time.
• We don’t blame her for not always getting along with him, but there’s also no malice on his end, so it’s easy to forgive him.
• You can definitely tell why Athena fell in love with him.
• Zeus made the wrong move trying to get rid of Thalia.
• And what about Percy and Zoë!?
• Atlas is not the nicest guy.
• Percy and Annabeth’s reunion was supercharged, and we’re here for it..

• Laura agrees with us—Tyson is the best!
• Huge thanks to Nicolaas for being impressed by our varied casting choices for Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
