Yes yes yes!!!!
Yes. I love his world
I’m actually about to reread the Percy Jackson series so then I can read the Heroes of Olympus series.
They are all so good! Definitely worth it
Yes! I’d say the best way to tackle his books is to break them down by their series (which includes no more than 5 books). That way it won’t be as intimidating.
Yess
Absolutely!!!!!
They are a lot but they’re so easy to get into and read! I’ve read all of the Percy Jackson series and all of The Heroes of Olympus series this year! I’m going to try to read all of them at some point!
The Kane Chronicles are awesome!!
I just got the last book in the Magnus Chase series so I get to read that series soon too!
@Courtney I’m super excited for the Kane Chronicles!! My favourite mythology is definitely Ancient Egyptian!!
@Erin Mine too!
So worth it. I flew through them.
No.
Yes. They’re fast they’re easy and they’re funny too. I really enjoyed the ones I’ve read so far and I hear they get better ☺️
Oh yes, absolutely! Love his style. Awesome series ?
Absolutely!
Yes! I love them!
I couldn’t get into PJO honestly, I read the first two books and i love Greek mythos but I’m not sure what I disliked about the books
Yes. Except for Magnus Chase. Not too fond of that or the Egyptian books he wrote.
Totally agree!!!! I read all his books and loved them but for some reason Magnus and Apollo were so blah to me.
I’m a fan of the Apollo ones, but Magnus Chase feels like Percy Jackson 2.0, now with SJW.
I loved the Kane Chronicles! Super excited to read the Magnus Chase ones too
@Courtney I def enjoyed the Kane chronicles although I don’t think I finished the series lol
Oh definitely for the Percy Jackson &Heroes of Olympus ones. Kane Chronicles was pretty cool as well. Have read the Magnus Chase trilogy but they were meh….and having a hard time getting into the Apollo ones right now.
My 4th grader loves them all. I read the first series and it was fine, but I didn’t need to read the others.
Yes
Yes, they’re cute
Go ! Dive into them you won’t regret it believe me
Start with the Lighting Thief series they are the best
Yes!!!!! So worth it!!!
Yes!!!!❤️ the first 5 are the main
Let me tell you about this 5star little book called Percy Jackson and the Olympian
Love his books?
I’m reading the Gods of Asgard series – Honestly having trouble getting through the Hammer of Thor. -yawn-
Try reading the Percy Jackson series 1st. It’s a lot more fun and enjoyable to read than the Norse. I would have had the same opinion as yours if I read Magnus Chase first.
I’ve read the Percy Jackson books as well as the heroes of Olympus set. I loved the first book for Magnus Chase! I’m not sure what’s causing me to struggle with the second. >.<
Hah! Right. I know what you mean. The pace was a little slow with that one, and the 2nd book of Apollo, as well. Maybe because the adventures were less daunting than PJ and HOO series. Riordan gave his best in those first books.
For sure. Read all the PJ themed books, 1.5 of the Magnus Chase. Haven’t read any of the Kane Chronicles but I will soon
Hammer of Thor is a snorefest, eh?
Yes
Yes!
My 10year old reads them and also does the audiobooks
They are great
Yes!!!! They are great!!!!
All of the yes
It’s the MCU of the book world: Never ending yet always entertaining (The Kane Chronicles has always been my favorite of his)
Yes! I love them all.
Yes! They’re super quick reads and so addicting!
Absolutely.
So worth it they are amazing
I’ve only read the Magnus Chase ones but they were good.
Yes they are amazing
Totally!
Yes
Same feeling XD So I started with the Magnus Chase books.
Percy Jackson books are even better. Hope you enjoy it. 🙂
Yes
Seriously its such a great and interesting read for anyone
Best to start at pjo in my opinion. Others are kinda loosely tied in that in some way
I really like PJO but Heroes of Olympus more.
Yes. So good
You’ll get trough them so fast that soon you’ll be saying there aren’t enough of them!
Hell yes !!!
Totally worth it. ♥
Totally worth it! 😀
And not just Percy Jackson and the Heroes of Olympus series’, the Kane Chronicles, Magnus Chase and Trials of Apollo are are great too (though I’ve only read the first book in Trials of Apollo so far)! Look up the reading order so you read everything in order, or go by publication order 😀
YES!!!
They are amazing, u should totally read them.
Start with Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
OBSESSED WITH HIS BOOKS! 😀
I really liked those!
Absolutely! I’ve read PJO, Heroes of Olympus and Trials of Apollo. I also read Magnus Chase, but for me they were kinda boring. I must finally read Kane Chronicles. ?
Yes! I’ve been a fan of his since the beginning and have kept up with the series!! Totally recommend ALL OF THEM!!
I just started down the Percy Jackson series and I am really enjoying them. So I would say yes. I am close to being done with The Lightening Thief series and cannot wait to get started on the next group of books.
theyre really good (hoo is,,, a bit of a dud) but tbh rick needs to leave the universe alone its dragged on too much
I am grateful to Rick Riordan because he got my son hooked on both mythology and reading. However, as an adult, I got tired of his books because I could see all of the plot twists coming from miles away and I got tired of the constant escapes from near-death situations.
YES!!!
I love long series – there’s just more to love!
yes they are
They are amazing you will love them omg so much fun.
yes they are
I love rick riordan books! My husband collects all of his series!
Yes! And it has given me so much advantage in school knowing about Greek and Roman mythology
And I almost got angry at my classmates, when the teacher asked what a cyclops is, and my classmate answered a half horse half human ?
Yessss
YES!!!!!!
Yasss
Absolutely!
Oh yeah and they’re so hilarious you don’t even realize you’ve read like, twenty books
100%, you’d be stupid not to read them !!
I feel like that about a lot of the popular series but I do have all of Rick Riordan books and want to read them
I like the Percy Jackson series starting with the lightning theif
Yes!!!!
Read Percy Jackson. I haven’t read any of the others but it is worth a reread to me.
Absolutely
His books are always worth it to me!
100% worth it! I would recommend those series to anyone and everyone at any time of day!
Definitely
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!! They’re amazing. I’m not extremely into the trial of Apollo series, but even that is good. 10000000/10 would recommend anything by rick Riordan or under his imprint Rick Riordan Presents
I love them!!
