Rick Riordan
(b.1964)Rick Riordan is a teacher and a writer, and has won many awards for his mystery novels for adults. He says that the idea for Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief first came to him while he was teaching Greek mythology at middle school in San Francisco. But rumour has it that Camp Half Blood actually exists, and Rick spends his summers there recording the adventures of young demigods. Some believe that, to avoid a mass panic among the mortal population, he was forced to swear on the River Styx to present Percy Jackson's story as fiction. Rick lives in Texas (apart from his summers on Half Blood Hill) with his wife and two sons.

Rick Riordan recommends
Nic Blake and the Remarkables (2023)
(Manifestor Prophecy, book 1)
Angie Thomas
"All the brilliance you'd expect from Angie Thomas: a page-turning plot, pitch-perfect characters, heart and substance, and real stakes that real kids will care about - plus magic! This is one of those rare books that will instantly become the best friend you didn't know you needed. Nic Blake and the Remarkables is nothing short of a triumph. When's the next installment, please?"
The Forbidden Island (2022)
(Explorer Academy, book 7)
Trudi Trueit
"A perfect blend of adventure with real science and technology!."
The Door of No Return (2022)
(Door of No Return, book 1)
Kwame Alexander
"Absolutely spellbinding: Kwame Alexander weaves together storytelling, poetry, music and history like no one else can. An unforgettable journey to be treasured and shared across generations."
The Notorious Scarlett and Browne (2022)
(Outlaws Scarlett and Browne, book 2)
Jonathan Stroud
"Stroud is a genius."
The Marvellers (2022)
(Marvellerverse, book 1)
Dhonielle Clayton
"The Marvellers deserves the highest compliment I can give a book: I want to live in this world. You can stop looking at admissions brochures for all those other schools of magic. The Arcanum Training Institute for Marvelous and Uncanny Endeavors is definitely where you want to apply."
Ballad & Dagger (2022)
(Outlaw Saints, book 1)
Daniel José Older
"San Madrigal is as real as Wakanda or the Shire or Earthsea. Once you read Ballad Dagger, you will see what I mean. Only the best authors can make me feel nostalgic for a place that never existed but needs to exist, and Daniel Jose Older is one of the best."
