I officially propose a petition stating that if Rick Riordan writes yet ANOTHER Percy Jackson book, it better be about Percy and Annabeth going to therapy and trying to adjust to a normal college life
The next 2 books will be the three tasks required to get percy into college, but I swear if we don't get to see a happy ending for percy and annabeth before Rick stops writing I'm gonna lose it 😂
Just tell them to read the first series, second series, and the last series. The spin-offs rarely bring anything to the main timeline and are rarely brung up to the point were I question if they are even canon to the main timeline lol
Percy's not actually seventeen in the Heroes of Olympus. A lot of people seem to think he is, but he's not. Annabeth turns seventeen in the House of Hades, but Percy's birthday is on August 18th, and the Blood of Olympus finishes only a couple days after August 1st
And the trials of Apollo takes place a few months after the end of Blood of Olympus, making Percy 17 in the “present” day hence why we make reference to him not aging past 17
He’s 16 in HoO, 17 during the beginning of ToA and since he’s going to college around the end I’m guessing 18, I think it said Apollo had been on Earth for 6 months, I’ll try to find the page later So his current age is 17 years 6 months+Apollo’s time on Earth so……he’s around 18
Yes. Yes. Yes. One of my favorite things about this universe is that it has brought different parts of my family together. My adopted cousin, my brother in law, an uncle from a different side of the family, and another brother in law’s sister and I can all get together and geek out in this series! Now that my nephew is finally showing interest, this is my reference video when they are ready to dig in.
Girl...GIRL hold up 1) THANK-YOU SO MUCH LIKE you do not know how hard it has been to find a video that explains to me clearly and SPOILER FREE what the hell am supposed to do after the HOO series cause ive been lost in deciding the most sense making order and ......*moment of silence * just thankyou sooo much u saved me💯💯💯💫 2) Am crying rn cause I got all these lil side stories I hadn't read and am sooo happy I have so much more to read cause I don't want this to end This Riordan mythology universe is just....too precious to end so just ik its a long comment 😭😭 but I just want to say that am subscribing right à way amd that u deserve more views, likes and subscribers lil demigod . Plus like WHAT PERCY IN THE PANDEMIC!!?? I swear I dropped a tear like I have soooo much to read and I'll never stop loving this universe 😭💯 byeee am out I gotta make a clear list of my book reading order. Peace
You have made this so much easier for me to understand, thank you. Percy Jackson has been something I've always wanted to delve into but never truly had the motivation, but recently I have had a bunch of Nico Di Angelo stuff pop up on my streaming apps, and now I have the motivation to read it all. I always go full in and don't stop half way, so I am excited to start but was super overwhelmed. You helped simplify it and keep my head straight as I watched. Again, thanks for the video, I can't wait to get the books and start reading.
I would like to point out though that Son of Sobek and Staff of Serapis happened after the events of The Blood of Olympus aka the entire series of the Heroes of Olympus. I say that because during their battle Percy mentioned the Doors of Death asking Carter if he's an escape spirit. Which, he would've only asked if he already finished dealing with it.
as someone who hasnt read the Percy Jackson series, no anything from the Riordanverse, this is amazing!! i was looking for a good review and wowzer! you and your channel have been amazing for me! thank you
I don't know how I have been a fan for so long but didn't know about these novellas??? Immediately ordering them from my local library, thank you soo much!!! You are doing the lord's work
there has been no confirmation of this, but people are making theories that further spinoff books will happen. not to mention, mythomagic inc is official production studio for the riordan verse movies/TV. some plot points will be "improved", which may retcon some things. if the TV shows are successful, i have a feeling he might try "original"/spinoff movies also set in the riordan verse. (exg- kinda like how ALTA has the original TV shows, but also novels, comics, and now video games)
My first thought when I saw Rick's announcement for the Chalice of the Gods was "Dear Lord PLEASE just let this boy rest!" Also going off the fact that Rick has said that Percy was 12 in 2005 (meaning he was born in 1993 asdfghjkl) since that's when the first book came out (in one of his super old interviews I have no idea if you can still find it anywhere) that means that his Christmas story has Percy as A 27 YEAR OLD. PERCY SHOULD BE 27. NICO SHOULD BE 23. AGHHHHHHHH
but his birthday is august 18 in in TLT which makes him about to turn 13 which makes him born in 1992, not 1993. for some reason rick messed up the timeline
I thought the ship of the dead ending was a reference to when Percy and Annabeth reached Camp Juputer during tower of nero and heard the news of Jason. I kinda assumed ship of the dead started before tower of nero and ended before the end of tower of nero
Question: when should I read the short story "Leo Valdez and the quest for Buford " which is in the demigod diaries as i have decided to wholeheartedly believe your way (as you do a great job of explaining why and what way to read the books) but this is the only story i wanted to know cause I think it will cause spoilers if read before the lost hero. Anyways, loved this !
😬 sorry for the late reply but read the short story after the lost hero and you’re good. I prefer to read one book at a time so I read the entire demigod diaries after the lost hero
hello i lived under a rock till now hahahaha i just have the first 15 books (the olympians+heroes of olympus+the trials of apollo) I think that is the main base I need to keep going directly to the sun and the star x'D(?????? i ...listened the 15 books in speedrun mode from mid December to the actual date that it is today because #thepoweroflovefornico . i have the 1st book of magnus but I got it in spain Spanish and it is killing me I want a more neutral Spanish(like Mexican Spanish argentinian spa is also a no for me sniff) I'll just buy the bookset in English when I have money o
ok so for those of us old gen x-ers that are addicted to this universe, any chance you can go over the whole series WITH the spoilers/guest appearances included? please don't make me read over them again! i love 'em but ain't nobody got time for that! i've got bills to pay and children to take care of! (human and pup kind) 😭😭😭
Hello! I am late to the game, but I devoured all first five books of Percy in the first two weeks of 2024, and I need more. I have written down your suggested reading order, and I will proceed as instructed. However, if I’m not mistaken (and if I am, apologies), you didn’t mention when it is best to read The Kane Chronicles Survival Guide and Demigods and Magicians. Could you help a girl out? Thank you!🎉
Wait, what cameo is it? I remember reading about a flying horse, so assumed it was Flapjack, but was there a different one? Also I think Rachel references the Kanes when she talks about a penguin in the TOA.
Are you referring to the Serpent's Shadow? If so I believe she was talking about Drew Tanaka the daughter of Aphrodite that Piper had trouble with in The Lost Hero. She goes to the same school as Sadie did and was there during the dance scene I believe. I think the flying horse aka Blackjack was mentioned in the crossover book Son of Sobek though I'm not sure.
Well this is five months late, but it’s Drew Tanaka, daughter of Aphrodite. Also someone else said Lacy too, and while I remember her in Serpent’s Shadow, I don’t remember her in HoO. If she IS there, I’d assume she’s a daughter of Aphrodite too
I officially propose a petition stating that if Rick Riordan writes yet ANOTHER Percy Jackson book, it better be about Percy and Annabeth going to therapy and trying to adjust to a normal college life
The next 2 books will be the three tasks required to get percy into college, but I swear if we don't get to see a happy ending for percy and annabeth before Rick stops writing I'm gonna lose it 😂
Now I get why it's getting harder and harder to convince people to start reading those books
I know righttttt
Just tell them to read the first series, second series, and the last series. The spin-offs rarely bring anything to the main timeline and are rarely brung up to the point were I question if they are even canon to the main timeline lol
@@anandakar7978 or just tell them to only read the first 3 books in the first series and then THEY WILL BE HOOKED FOR LIFE!! BWAHAHAHA! (true story 😢)
"A Demigod Christmas" jdbdbdbfb
Percy's not actually seventeen in the Heroes of Olympus. A lot of people seem to think he is, but he's not. Annabeth turns seventeen in the House of Hades, but Percy's birthday is on August 18th, and the Blood of Olympus finishes only a couple days after August 1st

He literally is college age when in TOA
@@LiteraryPrincess Yeah but just saying that's only since 2016 -- so not that long. Annabeth's been 17 for way longer
He’s 16 in HoO, 17 during the beginning of ToA and since he’s going to college around the end I’m guessing 18, I think it said Apollo had been on Earth for 6 months, I’ll try to find the page later
So his current age is 17 years 6 months+Apollo’s time on Earth so……he’s around 18

Now we’re gonna get Percy Jackson: The Chalice of The Gods
Thank you for no spoilers
I think you're officially the BIGGEST Rick riordan fan ever.
I would like to point out though that Son of Sobek and Staff of Serapis happened after the events of The Blood of Olympus aka the entire series of the Heroes of Olympus. I say that because during their battle Percy mentioned the Doors of Death asking Carter if he's an escape spirit. Which, he would've only asked if he already finished dealing with it.

I don't know how I have been a fan for so long but didn't know about these novellas??? Immediately ordering them from my local library, thank you soo much!!! You are doing the lord's work
Drew Tanaka and Lacy appear at the school dance in the serpent shadow so that is the cameo she refers to
Cant wait for Rick to release its celtic universe book!
YES
You're forgetting about the Ultimate Guide and the Kane Chronicles Survival Guide! I know they're not actually stories, but still
there has been no confirmation of this, but people are making theories that further spinoff books will happen. not to mention, mythomagic inc is official production studio for the riordan verse movies/TV. some plot points will be "improved", which may retcon some things. if the TV shows are successful, i have a feeling he might try "original"/spinoff movies also set in the riordan verse.

Where did you get the character candles?
Wait, what cameo is it?

@chrisanderson7258 Lacy is also mentioned briefly in the book the Aphrodite camper that stood up to drew
ok but tell me why i haven't read singer of apollo like huhhh
SAME I was pretty confident about my pjo nerd status but then HUH???? WHY HAVE I NOT READ/KNOWN ABOUT THIS SHORT STORY?
wait it’s been a hot minute since i’ve read the kane chronicles but what character makes an appearance in the lost hero and serpents shadow?
Well this is five months late, but it’s Drew Tanaka, daughter of Aphrodite. Also someone else said Lacy too, and while I remember her in Serpent’s Shadow, I don’t remember her in HoO. If she IS there, I’d assume she’s a daughter of Aphrodite too
How do you remember all this stuff?????? Do you read all these books once every month or something??😂
more like once a year, but…yeah
And if you like aka collector get graphic novel abd all the books behind her😂
