author check-in: rick riordan

Hello! Welcome to the third Author Check-In. Today’s author is Rick Riordan who has written many novels with interesting and diverse characters. Unlike most, I didn’t grow up reading Percy Jackson’s adventures but when I started my blogging and reading journey in 2017, it felt like a must. Six years later and I’ve caught up with most of his books, except Daughter of the Deep.

Without further ado, let’s see what I already read, what books are left, and what are coming up soon!

🏛🏛

While this Percy Jackson and the Olympians series was published in early 2000s, I didn’t read it only until a few years ago. Unlike many, Rick Riordan’s books wasn’t in my TBR at all.

In 2023, Rick Riordan will be adding another book in this series!


Diving into the Roman mythology, Rick Riordan introduced new characters we all came to know and love. I loved the crossover between Roman and Greek mythologies.

As Rick Riordan ticked off Roman and Greek mythologies in the list, he explored the world of Ancient Egypt. The sibling duo, Sadie and Carter, are interesting characters to follow. Their connection with the Egyptian gods and goddesses were well developed.

Magnus Chase finds out he’s the son of a Norse god and went on an adventure he wasn’t expecting. Another mythology checked off for Rick Riordan.


I only read this series in recent years and I absolutely adored Apollo as Lester. His fall from godhood was humiliating at first but in his time as a mortal showed him the human side of the world.
