I found this story to be a great cross-over and I very much hope that he creates some sort of series off of this. Afterwards they decide that it is probably in their best interest to not tell each other anything more about each other or their worlds. Using their combined abilities they were able to defeat the monster together. However I think the fact that they were able truce to save people from the monster shows that no matter where they come from in the end they have the same goal and that working together is the best and most efficient way to achieve it.ĭuring their fight with the monster Percy and Carter both are surprised with each others talents and abilities however they manage to keep their focus on the monster and continue battling it. I also found it interesting to get a glimpse of how their various powers and talents would match up when faced against each other. I found this beginning part intriguing as I was very curious about what would happen with them finding out about the various gods and cultures that actually exist. The fight later subdued and they were able to clear up that they weren't enemies and that they needed to work together to get the monster. However they didn't get anywhere with that as they couldn't identify each other as either a demigod or magician which resulted in much confusion and an accidental hit from Carter onto Percy resulting in a fight between them. Their meeting was very sudden and surprising, Percy had saved Carter and asked for an explanation as to why Carter was here. In this first story it tells of Carter Kane meeting a mysterious boy, Percy Jackson. I certainly had a blast mixing up the Egyptian and Greek worlds.Īn excerpt from the story can be found on Disney's Facebook Kane Chronicles' page.The Son of Sobek and The Staff of Serapis are short story cross-overs of Rick Riordan's Kane Chronicles and The Hero's of Olympus series.

It's not a full novel, because I have been spending most of my time working on The House of Hades, and I know you don't want me taking more time away from that project than I absolutely have to! The e-single will be priced accordingly, and I hope you find the adventure worth it. In print, it runs about forty pages, though I think it packs a lot of adventure into those pages. Now please be aware this is a SHORT STORY. I can't say if/when it will be available in other countries and other translations. As always, this information only applies to the US market, as that's the only country I get info for. As soon as I have more information about the e-release, I will let you know.

Well, the story will be released first in the paperback edition, since that's what I wrote it for, but fear not - there will be other ways to get "The Son of Sobek." Disney will be releasing it a little later in the summer as an e-single and audio, read by yours truly - the first time I've ever narrated the entire audio for my own story. "Do I have to buy it again just to read this story?" "But what if I've already bought The Serpent's Shadow?" you ask. If you buy the paperback version of Serpent's Shadow on May 7, "The Son of Sobek" will be at the end of the book, no extra charge. Let's throw Carter and Percy together in a Greek-Egyptian dilemma and see what happens. This is something fans have been asking me to do for years, but why this story and why now? My publisher Disney-Hyperion was looking for something fun to add to the paperback version of The Serpent's Shadow, which comes out May 7 - something to encourage folks who haven't yet tried the Kane Chronicles to pick up the series. As announced today in Publisher's Weekly Children's Bookshelf, I have written a crossover story featuring Carter Kane and Percy Jackson.
