I was literally horrified when the book started with Will in a half dead condition. Those two writers better be upto some good or there'll be consequences 😈
Theory: the reason why Will is at the blink of death at the beginning is because he is running out of light. Like he is a child of the sun and HE NEEDS LIGHT IN SOMEWAY, every light related character in Greek mythology isn’t allowed even in the underworld because of that. SOOOOO that might the reason :,)
22:02 I don't remember Percy and Nico interacting in Trials of Apollo. The only time they're both in the same place is at the end of The Hidden Oracle when the giant statue attacks Camp Half-Blood. Percy rides in to help, stays long enough to see Leo return, and then leaves again.
That dream sequence is interesting. Rick Riordan usually uses dreams as a plot device to show events which are happening away from the main character (or in the past), whereas this one is clearly described as false. There was that article on the website about Hypnos, so I assume he's behind it.
"This book is gonna make me cry, I'm sure of it" What are you talking about girl, I cried SINCE THE MOMENT WILL WAS HALF DEAD ALL THE WAY TILL THE END OF THE FIRST CHAPTER
Percy and Nico didn't interact in the Trials of Apollo but they did in Camp Half Blood Confidential also I think he's fifteen here because it said that he was fourteen in Blood of Olympus
Hii!! I didn't read any of it because I want to wait for the actual book, but the prologue is so sweet, especially as a young queer person being able to read fantasy with the knowledge that there are characters like me, and it isn't over stereotyped it's just normal.
OKAY BUT WE HAVE TO TALK ABOUT THE MICHAEL YEW OF IT ALL???? Will lets do the "open up about the trauma of your siblings dying and then having to be put into a leadership position at a really young age in where you feel the need to put other peoples needs before your own and so you decide to bottle up all your feelings" challenge!!!
Not gonna lie I wasn’t very interested in ToA but this sounds pretty good Rick really made the right decision to cowrite it I can feel a lot of similarities but also positive differences in style
2:54 Dear uncle Rick, Respectfully, IF WILL DIES I WILL SUE YOU I THINK ITS ILLEGAL TO PUT NICO THROUGH EVEN MORE TRAUMA PLEASE RICK IF YOU KILL WILL I WILL DRAG HIM UP FROM THE UNDERWORLD AND REPLACE HIM WITH YOU 😊 Kind regards, G1rI-w1th-he4dph0n3s
Interesting, it's third person like Heroes of Olympus. I was expecting first person Nico, more typical of Rick Riordan. What's Mark Oshiro's usual style?
I would love to see your reaction to the Fanfic "Death God Alliance" by Asilda. Percy and Nico's bond in the story is one I wish we had in the official books.
Also I think the reason why there may not be any all round campers is most likely due to many possibly moving to New Rome or going to college as many all rounders were older characters, not entirely sure but it's the best bet.
I went into the bookshop earlier and saw The Sun and the Star on the shelf. I thought I'd be able to get it a few days early. Then I picked it up and found it was just a leaflet with the first couple of chapters as a preview... Oh well, I should be able to get it next time I'm in town.
Chapters 3 and 4 hurt me mentally I was literally screaming reading these and I started crying at a certain point. I was in school when I read it and my teacher asked if I was okay and I looked up and said I was fine before looking back down
I’m trying not to read any of the previews so I can fully enjoy the book and then I see this video 😭😭 I have it paused on like the first second and it takes everything in me not to click the play button 😭 ONLY 9 MORE DAYS I CAN DO IT (no I can’t )
If Nico or Will dies I'm gonna get into a hard depression, I mean, it would be just so mean of Rick and Marck to kill one of them after their first book toghter. But now, I'm not sure what would be worst, one of them diyng or they broking up.
I can't wait for this book to come out, but (unpopular opinion warning) I don't like Percy so I hope we don't see him all that much nor do I ship percabeth so I hope they aren't a huge thing 😊
All the major characters from Heroes of Olympus (except Annabeth) appeared prominently in at least one book each, so if Nico talks about where they are now then you might be wondering what happened. Nico and Will also had a major role in The Tower of Nero, which sort of set this up. This is advertised as a standalone book though, so I doubt that'd be required to understand it.

-he got too much of nicos essence when they were having fun time-
^excuse me what the actual fuck

Omg nooooo 😭 poor sunshine boy
Yea, I think that it was also said by Uncle Rick at some point and also in TOA i think
Reading this theory after finishing the book makes me so happy

And there is indeed an Alton Brown popcorn video on TH-cam.
I NEED to watch it 👀

Guess we’ll have to read the boom to find out!
"This book is gonna make me cry, I'm sure of it"
What are you talking about girl, I cried SINCE THE MOMENT WILL WAS HALF DEAD ALL THE WAY TILL THE END OF THE FIRST CHAPTER
Fair enough
I seriously can't wait for this book to come out
WILL IS NOT DYING!!!! IF HE WILL THEN HE WONT. Will will remain alive. PERIOD.
Thats what I’m trying to manifest
His name is Will not Won't
I don’t understand a word you just said but will is not dying so I agree
Percy and Nico didn't interact in the Trials of Apollo but they did in Camp Half Blood Confidential also I think he's fifteen here because it said that he was fourteen in Blood of Olympus
That’s a good age I think!

An hour video I’m ready for it 🤭
I should make 2 hour podcasts episodes
@@Unclaimeddemigod you should
Sometimes unclaimed demigod is so innocent that I forget that she can swear- 58:55
HAHAHAHAHA I try to keep this channel fairly clean (since I know they fandom tends to be young) but I cuss like a sailor
22:05 actually in the camp half blood confidential they do interact! and will and nico are together at that point
I NEED to reread that

It’s all the trauma for me
came back from school and saw this! perfect way to start weekend
Awwww you’re making me blush
Not gonna lie I wasn’t very interested in ToA but this sounds pretty good
Rick really made the right decision to cowrite it
I can feel a lot of similarities but also positive differences in style
Co-writing this book is probably the best decision he’s ever made (super biased cause I loved the preview chapters hahaha)
I think imma have to wait for the actual book but this is so exciting and I’m glad you like it (I assume based on the title 😂) 🤩
I loved it, it blew my expectations straight out of the water
I found the first chapter on tiktok and i read each picture and it was so good!
I'VEL JUST FINISHED IT AND IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL
I’m trying so hard not to watch this because I pre ordered the book and DO NOT want to spoil it for myself.
I respect that, you can always come back to this video after you read it ☺️
2:54
Dear uncle Rick,
Respectfully,
IF WILL DIES I WILL SUE YOU I THINK ITS ILLEGAL TO PUT NICO THROUGH EVEN MORE TRAUMA PLEASE RICK IF YOU KILL WILL I WILL DRAG HIM UP FROM THE UNDERWORLD AND REPLACE HIM WITH YOU 😊
Kind regards,

Nico was 14 in hoo so he's about 15 now
That makes sense!
I’m late to seeing this video but OMG THE DEDICATION PAGE MAKES ME CRY I HAVE A PJO BOOK DEDICATED TO ME
Thank you for this... what a roller coaster ride this will😢❤
I am scared but excited 😜
@@Unclaimeddemigod ikrrrr 😭
Interesting, it's third person like Heroes of Olympus. I was expecting first person Nico, more typical of Rick Riordan. What's Mark Oshiro's usual style?
18:00 stop I was literally reading that one bad fanfic yesterday bc of your vid lol 😂
HAHAHAHAHA
I would love to see your reaction to the Fanfic "Death God Alliance" by Asilda. Percy and Nico's bond in the story is one I wish we had in the official books.
Interesting, I’ll put it on the “check out” list!
Neeks is 15 in The Sun and the Star and Will is 16
AGGG CANNOT WAIT
There’s not much waiting left!!!
I swear if Will perishes in this book I will end everyone.
Also I think the reason why there may not be any all round campers is most likely due to many possibly moving to New Rome or going to college as many all rounders were older characters, not entirely sure but it's the best bet.
Ooo that’s true!
It’s coming out on my birthday! :D
That’s so lucky! The best birthday present 🎁
Happy birthday!
@@30percentBattery Thank you ^-^
Thank you so much for reading the chapters. I’m so excited for the book 😊
AHHH I MISSED YOUU
I’m here each Friday hahaha
54:45 did Nico just say he loved will??!
IKRRR Its so cute, i think he did
I've pre-ordered the sun and the star and I can't wait for it to arrive! But I can't watch this video yet because *spoilers* :')
No worries! You can always watch it after 😊
@@Unclaimeddemigod I just received it yesterday! (And also finished it.)
I went into the bookshop earlier and saw The Sun and the Star on the shelf. I thought I'd be able to get it a few days early. Then I picked it up and found it was just a leaflet with the first couple of chapters as a preview... Oh well, I should be able to get it next time I'm in town.

It's always an experience reading books in school
This book sounds too cute!
It really does!!! Can’t wait to get my hands on it!
Can't wait until The Sun and the Star ruins my life and causes irreparable damage to my emotional and physical health!
Where did you find this???
if rick kills our brother you'll have cabin seven hunting him to all ends of the seven world
I’m thinking maybe Maria Di Angelo(Nico’s dead mother) is involved.
ONG LESS GOOO
It’s almost here!!!
🎉🎉
How do you have the first chapters???!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭
Edit: I know you answer this lol I just had to scream about it once I saw the video
fair enough 😭
Does this book come with a box of tissues?
Also, you should do full book narrations like this. Might need to break them into smaller parts, but would be great.
I’m beginning to believe it should
I’m trying not to read any of the previews so I can fully enjoy the book and then I see this video 😭😭 I have it paused on like the first second and it takes everything in me not to click the play button 😭 ONLY 9 MORE DAYS I CAN DO IT (no I can’t )
Just come back in 10 days!!!
@@Unclaimeddemigod yes that is what we are gonna do
If Nico or Will dies I'm gonna get into a hard depression, I mean, it would be just so mean of Rick and Marck to kill one of them after their first book toghter. But now, I'm not sure what would be worst, one of them diyng or they broking up.
Definitely one of them dying I would rhink
Where are the first chapters, like where did you find them?????????
The video is over 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 just a little longer I can hold on a little longer without solangelo
It’s almost an hour and a half did you want it to be longer??? 😂
@@Unclaimeddemigod yeah around a week would be nice you can never have too much solangelo 🤣🤣🤣🤣
57:16 AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
Can you tell me how can i find the pdf for the first 5th chapters? I wish you put it on comments or somewhere
I finished the whole cycling book 😃😃😃😃 n ic o has kids now 😋
That is so confusing for anyone who hasn’t read it
I think the voice from taurtarus was kronos
The book is out so now we know, but I won’t spoil it 🤐
I feel that not enough authors have LGBTQ+ characters
I can't wait for this book to come out, but (unpopular opinion warning) I don't like Percy so I hope we don't see him all that much nor do I ship percabeth so I hope they aren't a huge thing 😊
What? You don't ship percabeth? Well that's fine tho I think you should, people have their own opinions.
Percy and Annabeth will be at University in New Rome, so it'll unlikely they'll appear. I suppose you never know though.
Do I need to read Trials of Apollo before? Let's just say that I know what happens in Tower of Nero so I've been avoiding the saga... 🥺
All the major characters from Heroes of Olympus (except Annabeth) appeared prominently in at least one book each, so if Nico talks about where they are now then you might be wondering what happened. Nico and Will also had a major role in The Tower of Nero, which sort of set this up. This is advertised as a standalone book though, so I doubt that'd be required to understand it.
@@TheMoonRover thanks 💗 I think I'll have to read them then 🥺
Well said 👌🏻
