Now that i'm watching the Percy Jackson And The Olympians series and collecting the Percy Jackson books I always wanted to know how Rick Riordan got his start becoming an author? Was the Percy Jackson And The Olympians book series his very first book series or did he have other book series too? I also found out that he is from Texas and Rick Riordan is somewhat of a famous celebrity in San Antonio. When I first heard about the Percy Jackson And The Olympians series I never knew Rick Riordan would notice his popular book series would become a huge success in movies and television. I guess Rick Riordan wants to become the top kids author in the world
