Ever wonder what goes on at Camp Half-Blood in between Percy Jackson’s legendary quests? Well, pack your bags because camp starts on September 29 in THE WILD ZONE, the first in a new series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Rick Riordan and Annabelle Oh (@annabelleohauthor)!

Katie Kim may be a newcomer to Camp Half-Blood, but even she knows they weren’t supposed to be running through the Wild Zone—the forest is off-limits to campers and staff. Why, then, did Clarisse, head counselor of the Ares cabin, take her and four other newbies there in the dark of night and tell them to race back to camp by morning?

Clarisse’s threat was scary enough, but when Katie’s half-brother Grant goes missing, his disappearance sparks the arrival of vicious monsters and a mysterious curse. It’s up to Katie and the three remaining newbies—the Wild Omada—to brave the Wild Zone again and uncover its dark and deadly secrets.

Pre-order today to get an exclusive edition of THE WILD ZONE while supplies last! ✨ by @literaticat

For our first night in Reykjavic, I had planned to go to a fancy Michelin tasting menu blah blah but we were all too tired after flying all night and wandering around all day. My mom was like “I just want something LIGHT, like LOCAL FISH” — so the concierge gave us a list of possibilities.

Cut to dinner time, Mom has choice of eateries and chooses…. a Big Lebowski themed bar??? Anyway. It was good, just weird to be at a BIG LEBOWSKI THEMED BAR!!! Yes obviously I had a White Russian (and yes perhaps just as obviously, I DO have a headache now) 😂 by @literaticat

I took the afternoon off to take #flatodysseus to the movies, and I fear that The Odyssey might become my new personality 😭😭😭 WE LOVED IT!

Scattered thoughts:
— despite the long run time it did NOT feel too long whatsoever, it went fast and not a wasted frame
— I’m glad they didn’t show much of the gods, that would have gotten cheesy fast - the monsters were super scary and good though
— all the actors did great
— Telemachus is just a little peanut
— John Leguizamo made me weep multiple times
— Robert Pattinson is creepy AF
— Menaleus needs therapy (well okay they all do)
— Odysseus stringing his bow? 🔥🔥🏹👑👀🔥🔥 little wonder that Penelope waited for him! by @literaticat
