The Big Percy Jackson Thread For All Those Demigods Who Are On The Shard

[Morningtide she/her]

That's awesome!

I somehow forgot that not everybody has black hair 

That Halloween thing sounds awesome!

I love Percy Jackson, but has anyone here read the Trials of Apollo ? No one is talking about them and they are pretty dang good. Not as good as Heroes of Olympus or anything but I'd say they surpass the original percy jacksons.

i need to read them :skull:

[Trutharchivist he/him]

I don't usually see myself as a huge PJ fan, but I did read most of the Trials of Apollo. I personally think Riordan is pushing this franchise a bit far, but I read Brandon, who pitched Mistborn as a trilogy of trilogies and then added four books in the middle, so who am I to judge.

It would be interesting to see more mythologies, and I kind of want a bigger crossover than Demigods and Magicians/Percy's cameo in Magnus Chase, but to be fair, so far Riordan did pretty good in retelling myths in a modern setting rather than telling a whole new story with mythological figures, and a crossover will be hard to pull off.

Also, I kind of want Hades as a godly parent. He's not the best person, sure, but he's the only one who actually kept his word. And I kind of like Nico, too. Just not in the way you seem to refer to it.

A readaptation of that would take some time. First, Disney have to either acknowledge their movie was a failure, or losing the adaptation rights.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS! This could pave the pathway for other badly done movies to get turning into tv shows.

[Trutharchivist he/him]

I have one (surprisingly specific) problem with the trailer: it mostly looks amazing, but... They substituted a capital E with the Greek letter sigma. 

I just hope that it won't last, it's stupid and I'm overly pedantic, but still.

Hello, people on this thread.

I have recently re-read all of the Percy Jackson series, (I had previously gotten halfway though book 5 and then stopped) and am now on book one of Heroes of Olympus.

Just so you're aware.

[Going_North_cal]

i recently re-read both series' as well!

[Cinnamon]

I’m reading Percy Jackson to my little brother, a couple of chapters each night and he likes it! (He usually hates books)

[The Wandering Wizard he/him]

I can't reread it really anymore, because of how many times I have read the books, the plotline and character development is emblazoned in my brain.

[Throw TheLiving Silverware he/him/il/lui]
