Megan there have been deaths, Luke, Selena, Beckendorf (i don't know how to spell beckendorf), Bianca, Lee Fletcher, Zoe, so you can't say there hasn't been deaths, there have been many.

I said not many important deaths. Luke was one of the main antagonists until the very end, Lee Fletcher is hardly in it (I even forgot about him), Selena and Beckendorf definitely were not "Main characters" (Beckendorf's only memorable moment was when he died and Selena only ever died and was a minor traitor for a while), Bianca was quite sad because if her age and she was important for Nico's story but other than that she was not important at all, and finally Zoe. I'd say that Zoe was a main character actually. So I guess she counts. When I say main character I mean REALLY important!

Yeah, I checked on his blog after he did the Q&A because I was busy *mumbles*. I think it's going to have to do w/ a ship. Possibly Percabeth...

Don't worry, I am even more obsessed. Today, I nearly squealed(I think I did..) when I saw MoA poster in the bookstore, you know...so you can pre-order it.

Okay good because i was starting to get worried that someone might actually die. i not a person who likes having important people die, unless they're bad, except for Luke.

I could see her doing something like that . . . but I still want Jason with Piper.


message 426: by [deleted user] (new)

Exactly. Rick probably wants that too so he has to find a way to get rid o reyna without displeasing the readers too much.


message 427: by [deleted user] (new)

So to summarixe "Reyna will be Exeeeerminaaaated!!!"
Correction: Reyna might be killed

Really? Piper would not be first on my do-not-kill list. I mean, there are better people to replace her. Like Leo , hazel, frank. I get what you mean, for some reason hazel and frank didn't stick for me either :/

Reyna's not going to die.

He said it was a sweet/sad scene. I have a feeling it has to do w/ Percy and Annabeth.

message 432: by T.J. (new) - rated it 5 stars

T.J. | 58 comments NOO! PIPER CAN'T DIE! Here are the people on my it's-really-sad-but-I'd-rather-you-die-than-this-other-character list:

Hazel (Sorry, I just didn't like her as much)
Frank
MAYBE Leo, I don't know.
Reyna
Coach Hedge
Nikko (I wanted to scream when he wouldn't tell Percy that he knew him so I put him on here for that.)
.............that's it. Nobody else is allowed to die. I don't care if something BAD happens-that'll just make it more interesting-as long as it's not fatal to the other characters that I have not mentioned on this list.


ϟEvelynϟ (paralynperea) | 1841 comments Hazel?! Frank?! Reyna??!! LEO????!!!!!!???!!!!!!! You vile, vile creature. HOW COULD YOU????? [haha jk]



I didn't like Piper or Jason much.

THANK YOU. Gosh, that piper girl annoys the living daylights out of me. She's not a child of Aphrodite for no reason. Jason alright, don't really have a definite opinion on him.

Yes, I agree. I must say that I like Piper a bit better than Jason. Jason is just a NO. for me.

T.J. | 58 comments No, I didn't say I WANTED Frank or Hazel to die, I just didn't like them as much, they just didn't stick. And I take back Leo. I don't want anything bad to happen to him cuz I want to see what happens between him and Hazel and the whole "Sammy" ordeal.

What are the spoilers related to? I don't wanna see too much. This is one of the only times I will ever get to read a book w/o knowing what's going to happen...at all.
