Frank Zhang! I, Jason Grace, praetor of the Twelfth Legion Fulminata, give you my final order: I resign my post and give you emergency field promotion to praetor, with the full powers of that rank. Take command of this legion! (Rick Riordan Quotes)

The truth hit him. Jason wasn’t quite Roman anymore. His time at Camp Half-Blood had changed him. Reyna had recognized that. Apparently, so did the undead legionnaires. If Jason no longer gave off the right sort of vibe, or aura of a Roman leader (Rick Riordan Quotes)
Your destiny grows clearer, Jason Grace. When the choice comes again- storm or fire- remember me. And do not despair (Rick Riordan Quotes)

As in all Abercrombie’s books, friends turn out to be enemies, enemies turn out to be friends; the line between good and evil is murky indeed; and nothing goes quite as we expect. With eye-popping plot twists and rollicking good action, Half a King is definitely a full adventure (Rick Riordan Quotes)
We tend to think of divorced or complicated families as a modern invention, and that is not at all true. You only have to read the Greek myths to see broken homes, widows, divorce, stepchildren, children trying to get along with new parents (Rick Riordan Quotes)
I think kids want the same thing from a book that adults want - a fast-paced story, characters worth caring about, humor, surprises, and mystery. A good book always keeps you asking questions, and makes you keep turning pages so you can find out the answers (Rick Riordan Quotes)
I stick closely to the structure of the myths. I may have some fun with the mythology by changing the environment to modern-day, but the structure of the myths, the monsters, the relationships of the gods - none of that is made up (Rick Riordan Quotes)
Stacy Schiff is that rare combination: a first-rate historian and a brilliant storyteller. Using a wide range of sources, she spins straw into gold, conjuring the world of Ptolemaic Egypt in full vibrant color, and returning the voice of one of the most powerful, fascinating, and maligned women in history. Cleopatra is impossible to put down (Rick Riordan Quotes)
Monsters don’t die. They just dissipate into smoke and dust, which saves heroes a lot of trouble cleaning up after a fight. (Rick Riordan Quotes)
Victory must be real. It must be earned. That means it must be rare and difficult, against steep odds, and defeat must be the other. (Rick Riordan Quotes)
There’s no point in defending camp if you guys die. All our friends are here. (Rick Riordan Quotes)

Fear can’t be reasoned with. Neither can hate. They’re like love. They’re almost identical emotions. (Rick Riordan Quotes)

Even if these stories are 3,000 years old, there’s still so much about the characters, about the dilemmas, about their understanding of the universe that still resonates. The whole idea of order and chaos, which is really central to the ancient Egyptian understanding of the world, is still very much with us. (Rick Riordan Quotes)
The Met is such a powerful place for me because it’s a natural connection between the ancient world and the modern world. And when you’re dealing with ancient mythology, trying to put a modern spin on it, you really can’t do much better than to call on the Met. (Rick Riordan Quotes)
Something inside me clicked, like an engine shifting into higher gear. My thinking suddenly became faster and clearer. The anger and fear didn’t go away, but I realized they weren’t important. They weren’t going to help me... (Rick Riordan Quotes)

They are a wealth of information on finding books that kids enjoy. (Rick Riordan Quotes)
