message 38: by Shruti (new)

Shruti GREAT ANSWER !!!!!!
Such a nice reason for choosing a character. Not everyone can think of such a one. This is what makes you special.


message 39: by HyeFireFlame (new)

HyeFireFlame I really like Nico! He is not my favorite but he's third place. I love Spider-Man and I laughed so hard when he said "with great responsibility means a great nap" or at least that's what I think he said.


message 40: by atzmatter (new)

atzmatter Uncle Rick, you're awesome. You've inspired me into writing this book that I already four chapters of and I couldn't thank you enough for your talent. Your books helped me get fully out of writer's block after almost five years. :)


message 41: by princesz (new)

princesz there is a gay character in Percy Jackson series? I don't remember?


message 42: by Queen (new)

Queen write me direct to my email OK.................. [email protected]


message 43: by WolfSpirit1126 (new)

WolfSpirit1126 He put nico and will solace together


message 44: by Liam (new)

Liam I'm not very pro-gay rights, and I oftentimes dislike gay rights, but as I'm reading The House of Hades (first time!!! On page 315 right now!) I'm liking the idea. I see Nico as gay. He seems.... right. I never thought about him being romantically involved with Annabeth, or Thalia, or any female character, but with him being gay, it does seem to fit him :) good decision, Mr. Riordan!


message 45: by Virdania (new)

Virdania Lestari for the next book, could you get more part about solangelo? I really love the two of them, so cute ><


message 46: by Liam (new)

Liam Sounds like a deal *rolls eyes* everyone go and enchant your former boyfriends now!!!


message 47: by Neon (new)

Neon UNCLE RICK DOES IT AGAIN, I LOVE THIS MAN


message 48: by Debbie (new)

Debbie so, one gay character for every hundred straights, like he population?


message 49: by Noah (new)

Noah all your books are ledgendary


message 50: by M.thomas (new)

M.thomas With all due respect, I feel like this is kind of too convenient to be including gay characters right when it becomes socially acceptable. Why now and not the other books Nico was in?
