Hi Mary,
I am delighted! I hope you will write back to tell me how you like it. You will meet a new character, and get to know some old friends a little better. We know now that there will be (at least) four books in the series, so there are more adventures to come.
Happy reading, and thank you for your enthusiasm.

Quotes by J.F. Riordan  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“This is why anonymous technology and nonstop news is so hollow and soul-crushing. It puts the suffering of the world before us yet makes us powerless to help. But this was different. It was a stranger in a virtual world, but a voice of such searing pain that it could not be ignored.”
J.F. Riordan, Reflections on a Life in Exile

“people seem to value other people’s opinions of their own worth, rather than their own, so they push themselves into pretending to be a certain way, or to value things they don’t actually care about just to impress other people.”
J.F. Riordan, Robert's Rules

“Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fate brings you together, but do so with all your heart.”
J.F. Riordan, North of the Tension Line
