Rick Riordan, dubbed “storyteller of the gods” by Publishers Weekly, is the author of five New York Times #1 best-selling series with millions of copies sold across the globe, including Percy Jackson and the Olympians, now a hit live-action show on Disney+. He expanded on that first series with two more: the Heroes of Olympus and the Trials of Apollo, both of which cleverly combine Greek and Roman gods and heroes with his beloved modern characters. Rick also tackled the ancient Egyptian gods in the magic-filled Kane Chronicles trilogy, and Norse mythology in Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard. His most recent books are The Court of the Dead: A Nico di Angelo Adventure, which he cowrote with Mark Oshiro, and Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Wrath of the Triple Goddess. In addition, Rick is the publisher of an imprint at Disney-Hyperion, Rick Riordan Presents, dedicated to spotlighting other authors of highly entertaining fiction based on world cultures and mythologies. He lives in Boston, Massachusetts, with his wife, Becky. Follow his news on RickRiordan.com.
