Percy Jackson and the Olympians
5 books
Percy Jackson is twelve years old, has been kicked out of every school he has ever attended, and has just found out that his father is Poseidon. Camp Half-Blood, a training ground for the children of Greek gods hidden in Long Island, is both a refuge and the beginning of something much larger. Over five books Percy grows from a confused kid who can breathe underwater to the demigod at the centre of a prophecy that will determine the fate of Olympus. The original series that launched the Riordanverse, built around a voice so distinct and a mythology so confidently reimagined that it created its own genre of modern mythology fiction.
The Heroes of Olympus
5 books
A prophecy of seven demigods from both the Greek camp and its Roman counterpart, Camp Jupiter, who must sail together to stop Gaia, the earth goddess, from waking and destroying both worlds. Where the original series followed Percy alone, Heroes of Olympus splits its narrative across seven characters, alternating perspectives to build an ensemble story about two traditions that have been kept separate for centuries and the cost of bringing them together. Direct continuation of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, beginning immediately after the events of The Last Olympian.
The Kane Chronicles
0 books
Carter and Sadie Kane are the children of Julius Kane, a brilliant Egyptologist who accidentally releases the five most powerful Egyptian gods into the modern world. Suddenly hosts to divine power and hunted by the House of Life, the ancient order of Egyptian magicians, the Kane siblings must master their abilities and stop Set from destroying North America. A standalone trilogy set in the same world as the Greek series but operating entirely within Egyptian mythology, with a dual first-person narration structure that distinguishes it from every other Riordanverse series.
Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard
0 books
Magnus Chase dies on his sixteenth birthday and wakes up in Valhalla. From there he is drawn into Norse mythology, a world of einherjar warriors, Valkyries, frost giants, and a countdown to Ragnarok that may already be unstoppable. Set in Boston and the Nine Worlds of Norse cosmology, this trilogy brings a new voice and a new mythological system into the Riordanverse. Magnus is the cousin of Annabeth Chase, which connects the series to the Greek world, but the Norse mythology operates on its own terms and the series stands alone.
The Trials of Apollo
0 books
Zeus has punished Apollo by casting him out of Olympus as a mortal teenager with no powers, no godly authority, and a body he finds deeply inadequate. To regain his place among the gods, Apollo must serve the demigod Meg McCaffrey and find and free a series of ancient Oracles scattered across America, each held captive by a different Roman emperor brought back from the dead. Five books that use Apollo's enforced mortality and his long history of careless cruelty as the basis for a genuine redemption arc, set against the largest and most politically complex threat the Riordanverse has faced.
