After the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series Rick Riordan continued it with a follow up series called The Heroes of Olympus series, which has not yet ended, but has three books so far. In this series it introduces a roman camp like camp half-blood, only the roman's see the gods differently, in their roman forms. Normally the two camps would have fought( if they knew about each other), but the Greek kids try to make peace. However an evil possessive spirit takes control of one of the kids an shots the roman camp!!! Now seven half-bloods need to answer a prophesy, go to Rome, and fight something even more sinister that even the titans! This is a great follow- up to the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. If you want to read it the first book is The Lost hero.

One of my all time favorite series is Percy Jackson and the Olympians. It is a great 5 book series that ( depending on how fast you read) can keep you entertained for quite some time. I would highly recommended this series for anyone that likes mythical fantasy. Basically in the book the Greek gods are real, and they have kids with mortals these kids are called half-bloods and monsters hunt them. They have some differences from normal mortals, but you can read the books to find out what.
On the topic of hobbits, I read The Lord of the Rings just before The Hobbit and I loved it! Not only is it an amazing book series, but the movies are pretty darn accurate, asides from the part where the end of the second book is in the beginning of the third book. I was able to read the books then watch the movies without any things that stood out to me as extremely different. I recommend both.
Hello!
I read The Hobbit rather recently and thought "Wow!" Almost as good as The Lord of the Rings. It is an amazing book with just the right amount of action mixed with enough discussion to understand whats going on. It is one of my new favorite books(I have lots ;) ) I highly encourage you to read this book.
