Pendragon however, in my opinion, has been dragged on too long. I'm glad that it's finally ending.
it had to so it could get to all of the territories of Halla

I borrowed The Last Olympian from a friend last night, and read it all night! It was amazing. I love that series. The book keeps you guessing until the end. And the way Rick Riordan sets it up, he might be able to either continue the series or do a spin-off of this series, with the main character different.

I read it t0o, and on his website, Riordan says he's gonna write a second Camp Half-Blood seris. Percy's not gonna be the main charecter though...

Yeah, that's what I expected to happen. I'm glad, because I would've been sad if the series ended. I wonder if the new main character will be a son/daughter of Poseidon.

it would be interesting if the new main character was somehow related to percy but comes generations afterwards and then discovers hes a half blood yadda yada. i still need to get my hands on the last olympian. a kid in my math class said he might lend it to me... :| must...have...last...olympian...
