When we went to see Rick Riordan speak, Grace and I ended up with an extra signed copy of The Mark of Athena. We would love to give the extra book to one of our blog readers, but we want to be fair, so we decided on a simple contest/giveaway.
“How do I enter?!?!” you’re all screaming. Well, it’s easy. Read the riddle below and leave a comment with your answer. The winner will be chosen randomly from the correct responses. We will accept responses here on the blog or on our Facebook page.
The winner will be chosen next Friday (October 19th, 2012) at 2:00 in the afternoon.
Here’s the riddle:
They follow and lead, but only as you pass.
Dress yourself in darkest black,
And they are darker still.
Always they flee the light,
Though without the sun there would be none.
Good luck!
