I second this! The author, Rick Riordan, has several series and also recentlyish started “Rick Riordan Presents,” which highlights books about other mythologies from other authors. Basically, you’ve got options!

@Essie not really, but there’s a little bit of possibility between two characters.

If you want romance try his Magnus Chase. It’s teen romance nothing too risky.

Not particularly. Just a basic friendly and the can’t live without you stuff. The Lost Hero’s of Olymupus. Has a bit more but nothing special.

Clara

@Essie there are some romantic subplots in most of the books (everyone is basically crushing on Percy)

Kelly

Sphinx series-Raye Wagner
Gatekeeper’s series-Eva Pohler
Immortal Chronicles-Samantha Britt
Trial by Charm-Jolene Bunchheit
The last two have some but not as direct as the first two.

Mythos: The Greek Myths Retold by Stephen Fry. The Stephen Fry’s Great Mythology Series has two books; the first being Mythos and the second being Heroes: Mortals and Monsters, Quests and Adventures. Those two book are FANTASTIC! They are extraordinary written. The story is marvelous and captivating. You really should give them a try, trust me 😉
