The good news is --- YES, there is one in the works and we heard it from no other than Uncle Rick himself. So, after more than a decade -- it's finally happening. :)
Here's what we know so far:
1. This will be released more or less at the same time Disney's Percy Jackson TV series launches.
2. The book's title is "The Chalice of the Gods."

3. The timeline of the book is after the HOO series but before the Trials of Apollo.
4. The story will still revolve around our favorite trio. No deaths of major characters (Percy, Annabeth, and Grover) are about to happen since they are all alive in the Trials of Apollo series.
5. Tentative launch date is on September 26, 2023.

More about the plot
Percy is now in his senior year and is now on a more challenging quest -- getting into college.
Unfortunately, New Rome University requires recommendation letters from three gods for you to get in. So, now, Percy has to complete quests to get these letters...
Now, for the first quest...
Yes, you guess it right! It is for the cupbearer of the gods, Ganymede who is missing his chalice and this is not just any chalice because anyone who drinks from this cup gains immortality.

That is SO awesome! My niece is a huge fan of the series, she still loves it despite growing older and older each day. I think she re-read it over 10 times already. I heard about the news from her already, I can only imagine how excited she is. Lyosha
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine is a fan of this series though she just started it, I'm sure she's hoping there would be a book 6 for this series.
