There are quite a few upcoming releases that I'm looking forward to, but one that I can't wait to get my hands on because it's so close that I can almost smell it?

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
In The Son of Neptune, Percy, Hazel, and Frank met in Camp Jupiter, the Roman equivalent of Camp Halfblood, and traveled to the land beyond the gods to complete a dangerous quest. The third book in the Heroes of Olympus series will unite them with Jason, Piper, and Leo. But they number only six--who will complete the Prophecy of Seven?The Mark of Athena
Author: Rick Riordan
Series: The Heroes of Olympus (Book #3)
Publisher: Hyperion Books
Pages: 580 (Hardback)
Release date: October 2, 2012
The Greek and Roman demigods will have to cooperate in order to defeat the giants released by the Earth Mother, Gaea. Then they will have to sail together to the ancient land to find the Doors of Death. What exactly are the Doors of Death? Much of the prophecy remains a mystery....
With old friends and new friends joining forces, a marvelous ship, fearsome foes, and an exotic setting, The Mark of Athena promises to be another unforgettable adventure by master storyteller Rick Riordan.
6 more days! I'll probably end up re-reading the whole Percy Jackson series, plus the Heroes of Olympus. It'll be nice to revisit. They'll also help tide me over while waiting for the next Percy Jackson movie, which I'm also waiting quite impatiently for.
What are you looking forward to?
I haven't read any of his books, but I really want to!
LOL! I'm so pumped up for this book and am so happy to see so many others people as well!
Thanks for stopping by our blog

They're really good. I had no shame walking to the 9-12 section to grab them whenever I needed the next one, lol.
I can't wait! I've been trying so hard to avoid spoilers and even previews for it. Lol. It's tempting, but it's almost here!
Thanks for the comment!
Great pick. I love Rick Riordan. :)
I haven't read any of this series yet, but I have read some of the Percy Jackson books and really liked them, so I would probably like these, too. Great pick and thanks for visiting!
I still haven't read any of his book *hides in shame* I really need to read some soon. Great pick!

I've only read the first Percy Jackson book so far. I guess you'd recommend sticking with it! Have you read any of his Kane Chronicles books yet? I'm wondering how the series compare.

This one is a popular pick today!

Thanks! He's really great.
I would definitely recommend this series if you're a Percy Jackson fan. Thank you for the reply!
Yes, I do recommend it! They get better as they go along. I'm happy I stuck with the series. I haven't read any of the Kane Chronicles just yet; they're on my list!
