Riordan is a former middle-school English and history teacher, and at the N. The other day, my son read aloud to me an extended joke involving H. Undoubtedly, Riordan has single-handedly sparked an enthusiasm among young readers for Greek mythology, and if kids are dressing up for Halloween as Apollo or Poseidon instead of Iron Man or a generic zombie, so much the better.
Riordan has been admirably encouraging of real-world attempts to bring Camp Half Blood to life: summer camps inspired by his books have sprung up in various locations around the country, including one in Prospect Park that offers its demigod denizens many happy hours of sword fighting, shield-making, quest-following, and capturing the flag.

Procrustes is killed, and the trio proceed to DOA Recording Studios , the cover place for the gates to the Underworld, then enter.
There, Percy bribes Charon into letting them in. Once inside, they discover that the entrance to the Underworld proper is being guarded by Cerberus. Annabeth then plays with the giant dog by using a little red ball, giving Percy and Grover enough time to pass.
