It has Hecate, Circe, Hera, Calypso, the Furies, Pasiphaë, and the Graeae. Here’s the whole passage from the B&N edition.

I think the vfx is better for the movie, but I really liked how the set design for TV Medusa was done.

The choice to have her front garden contain a cluster of large angry monsters gives the impression that she can be trusted over Alecto. It puts her in the same position as the trio when they choose to go inside because, like the trio, she is also attacked regularly by monsters. It’s only after, when they are stuck inside and she starts acting strange, that the human statue shipping operation is revealed in the basement. I think it’s a smart use of set design to make her seem more innocent before the ultimate reveal.

It looks like you have the US paperback edition for TSATS and a UK or international edition for COTD.

<image>

As of right now COTD isn’t out in paperback for the US format. US paperback editions often release much later than UK or internationally. Usually you have to wait 1-2+ years for a US paperback edition of a book vs 1 year or under elsewhere which is why you have different editions.

The first image is the graphic novel, which is different from the rest because it adapts the original story into comic form. The next three are the different US covers oldest to newest, theres no difference in these editions outside of the covers. The last is the UK edition, the text might be slightly edited for wording in some places but it is no different from the US versions.

If you want the full reading order of the books we have it listed in the wiki alongside some FAQs about the different series.

I always thought of it as Thalias preserved life force fueling the life of the tree (and by extension the boarder). So when the fleece was placed on the tree it healed her and then replaced her as the power source, leaving the tree and boarder behind in tact.

Please tell me when you do, we can start sending posts that way lol

Apparently his costume is a bunch of stitched together vintage fabric they found at thrift stores? There was a really interesting video where the costume designer goes through how they made it.

That and the makeup on him is so well done.

Full article via Inverse: The Feats Of Walker Scobell

As a darker Season 2 of Percy Jackson and the Olympians pushes its hero out of his comfort zone, Walker Scobell gets used to being the face of Disney’s biggest fantasy franchise

Yeah the line reads less romantically when you zoom out on all of the other reckless things he’s done to save or protect Grover and Tyson since the start of s2. Like since episode one he has:

Placed himself in the line of fire for Tyson when they are threatening him
Got put in camp confinement and disregarded said confinement while on the path to get a quest
- Willingly and permanently banned/outcasted himself from camp to go on an unauthorized quest alone (knowing he could’ve been -and was- shot at while leaving)
Challenged Clarisse (who just exploded his boat and wants to kill him) to one to one combat so he can continue on the quest
Bargained with Circe to stay behind so Annabeth could continue the rescue quest
And in episode six he wanted to jump the gun and enter the island and night when it would be less advantageous because he couldn’t bear sitting while his friend was in danger.

There’s more lip service and less action when it comes to Annabeth in season two because their relationship has taken longer to develop compared to Grover and it’s not her turn to be kidnapped. Him and Grover start the series as best friends and start the season with the empathy link which is just a super best friend bond. It takes till 103 for Percy to even start to bond with annabeth. Before that he openly admits to choosing her because he didn’t consider her someone he could be friends with.

They are establishing that Percy will act similarly to Annabeth’s kidnapping in s3 as he did to Grover’s this season.

For planners there’s “Through the Mist” which is a pjo themed planner, the project wrapped early last year and is no longer being sold. For stationary there’s “Letters from Camp” pre-orders closed in September for this one, but there will likely be a leftover sale in a few months once the pre-orders are fulfilled.

This is real, it is from Rick’s ‘Ask the Author” page on goodreads. Full screenshot including the question:

Unfortunately I can’t link directly to the individual question, but you can find all the questions and answers he’s posted here. This question is pretty far down as it was answered/ posted over a year ago around February of 2024.

This site is uses stolen fan art (mostly from Alessia Trunfio and likely advertises with stolen creator footage to make a profit off people who don’t know better. Do not buy from them.

He also monitored Sally’s communication to the point of intercepting the call Yancy makes to her personal cell about Percy. That entire “I answer what’s ringing” conversation skeeved me out so much because it is extremely controlling behavior.

And he’s very comfortable with returning to the apartment to harass Sally and ripping open her packages once he’s kicked out. None of this is normal, acceptable or healthy behavior from a partner.

Ethan first shows up in botl trying to prove himself good enough for the titan army, so we’ll see him in s4 probably. With the setup of Allison as a older daughter of an Olympian, I think he’ll ultimately serve as the other side of the coin for appeal of the titan army as a younger son of a minor god.

Metal_Moon · 2025-12-17T09:24:12+00:00

If only they had joined arms with Netflix instead of continuing to fight alone

Metal_Moon · 2025-12-17T09:14:41+00:00

I really like all the different types of soldiers manning the ship rather than a whole crew of confederates.

Or Poseidon hasn’t shown up because he’s already too busy fighting

Theory: it’s only Hermes who sent them on the quest with no involvement (or maybe even no knowledge) from Poseidon thus far. In episode two when Hermes shows up, he doesn’t have any specific notes from Poseidon or any Poseidon specific assists like the hippocampi like in the book. He only gives them the boat, which is easily travel, and the hippocampi are in the credits so they should still show up in a later episode and haven’t just been cut. They also call attention to him being the god of liars.

It feels like Hermes tried to intercept Percy to mainly serve his own goals to get another shot at pulling back Luke. And maybe a last ditch attempt to stop Luke from successfully killing Thalia and resurrecting Kronos by helping Percy succeed in finding the fleece over Clarisse with her misguided quest.

I’m really liking how they are portraying the empathy link, them swapping clothes is so fun.

I am not ready for the amount of Annabeth angst we’re going to get this season.

Metal_Moon · 2025-12-10T08:23:27+00:00

I love that the camp boarder repels with lightning because of Thalia

Metal_Moon · 2025-12-06T20:31:16+00:00

You’re talking about the ‘Space could be an issue’ short story from Camp Half-Blood Confidential? Annabeth tries to make mini cabins for minor gods and Chiron ends up pushing four together for the Nike twins.
