Rick Riordan's Heroes of Olympus: Son of Neptune

I can't wait to get hold of this book. I have read Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series as well as book 1 of his Heroes of Olympus series.

What I like about Riordan's books is that mythologies galore are plotted in modern times. These kinds of books in general are what I consider light reading. They are fun, full of magic, yet you get life's important lessons as well.
People ask me why I read those children's books when I used to read heavy drama and courtroom cases and mysteries. I just smile at them. Sometimes I take the time to explain but then oftentimes they don't get what I meant. Perhaps it's due to the fact that I"m terrible at explaining? Hope not but, probably. :)
