author of the month

Looking for a book with references to mythology, and full of side-splitting humor, and fast-paced adventure? Check out Rick Riordan's awesome website at www.rickriordan.com to read more about the author of the bestselling series Percy Jackson and the Olympians. His first book in the series, The Lightning Thief, was a big hit in our fantasy book group last spring. Over a million copies of book four are now circulating among teen readers. Adult friendly too!
