(I have a feeling this is gonna keep happening, folks.)It’s important to acknowledge that nothing is perfect, so we also touch on items we would change a little bit, if we had such power.TYSON! TYSON! TYSON! We are all super excited to see Percy’s brother make his appearance, especially since his role is so pivotal to the story.There are also tons of moments we’re looking forward to seeing, from tentpole to tender.We want to see Percy working on his fighting, both swordsmanship and harnessing the power of the ocean.If Percy Jackson and the Olympians inspires some competition, we hope it comes in the form of diverse mythologies. (And I mean, there’s a whole imprint’s worth just waiting for their chance in the sun.)Serwa may (or may not) be coming out on November 5th, 2024, but stick here for all the latest updates, because that is one story we are DYING to get our hands onWe lose our cool a little, telling Rosie about how much we love the Serwa Boateng series.Time to beg a little for a teaser detail or two for Serwa Boateng’s Guide to Saving the World, and Rosie kindly DELIVERS.Writing a book 3 is tough work.There aren’t any projects on the horizon that Rosie can tell us about right now, but she does regale us with a list of all kinds of books she’s been reading lately.

    Episode #122 – Hera Coded
    Apr 3 2024
    Prophecy Radio episode #122 sits down with a surprise guest to talk about A Drop of Venom by Sajni Patel. We also get a newbie’s reaction to Percy Jackson season 1, including what questions they still had after the final credits rolled. There’s also some important Percy Jackson and Rick Riordan news to discuss, including our dreams coming true with the announcement of a Funko line, as well as some listener feedback from the past couple weeks. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:03:09) Give a big, warm welcome to our friend Danielle, who we’re so excited to have on the show for the first time!Did you see that we’re getting Percy Jackson Funkos!?Perhaps even more surprising—we’re getting a Percy Jackson cookbook, too!Oh, hey, Luke Arnold from Black Sails would make for an excellent addition to Percy Jackson and the Olympians.We pick Danielle’s brain about Percy Jackson season 1 considering she’s never read the books!What improvements would she like to see in season 2? A Drop of Venom by Sajni Patel (00:20:15) If you’re not mentally prepared for this discussion, please take care of yourself and either skip it or come back later!How familiar were we with Medusa’s story and/or Indian mythology?What were our overall thoughts on A Drop of Venom?Let’s talk about Manisha and what a nagin is.And we can’t forget about Noni!Then there’s Pratyush, who’s a slayer because, well, his father was a slayer.We liked that Sajni didn’t ignore the struggles men also have thanks to societal norms and pressures.But did anyone else think he was a little sus in the beginning?We talk explicitly about Manisha’s rape and how it was depicted on the page.There are no words for how angry Sita’s betrayal made us.The victim blaming in this book is, unfortunately, a reflection of real life.It’s important not to use passive language when talking about violence against marginalized groups.Was the General just Hera in disguise!?He really should’ve made sure Manisha was dead.This was not the only sexual assault in the book.It’s important for men to stand up against other men when they are participating in rape culture.We loved Dev, but he was pretty intense!?Girls have to stick together!Menstruation is totally normal and we should talk about it more.Did you figure out who the three elders represented?We LOVED that this book talked about the subjectivity of monstrosity, just like Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1.Is Pratyush as much of a “monster” as Manisha?Embrace your darkness! The spoiler section begins at 1:20:12.Did the general suffer enough?How did we feel about the “love story” between Manisha and Pratyush?Thank GOODNESS Noni is still alive.We have a couple guesses as to what the next book will be about, and even what the title might be! Feedback (00:52:50) Steph agrees that Aryan Simhadri IS Grover Underwood.Reilly also agrees that the video we posted in our IG stories needed to have a wedding dress for Grover. Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 123, in which we’ll have a chat with Roseanne A. Brown about Percy Jackson and the Olympians, as well as her upcoming book, Serwa Boateng’s Guide to Saving the World! This episode’s hosts are: Karen Rought and Kristen Kranz.
