Rick Riordan is so savage like he made it seem like his books were just gonna be like every other kids series out there and then once he’s ensared all these people into reading this world he’s created, he adds a gay couple that actually gets more than just a mention or two, a genderfluid character that is shown to be an utter badass and as capable and human as anyone else, and a Muslim girl who despite literally being involved with the Norse gods, still keeps her faith and religion close to heart. He even made the choice to give Apollo a backstory that envolved love stories with both men and women. He knew that if he included all these things from the start that not as many people would have read it, so he waited until there was an entire world filled with these characters you‘d grown to love, and then added ones that may have detered you from reading the very first book had that character been in it. And yet because you’re already so enthralled in this storyline of mythology, it doesn’t matter that the characters are different. Of course there are going to be those people who drop out, but for those who stay, you’re teaching that representation matters. That even in a world filled with demigods and valkyrie and all sorts of mythological beings, being like those characters that were added is perfectly alright. It’s more normal than Mount Olympus being at the top of the Empire State Building. Imagine what kind of effect that’s going to have on the kids who grow up with Magnus Chase and Trials of Apollo. They’re going to look at characters like Alex or Sam or Nico, and they’re going to think, “I wish I could be just like them.” Rick Riordan is a legend and you cannot argue otherwise.

If Harry Potter had Riordanverse-like chapter titles

“A DADA teacher tries to kill me - a sequel”

“Put this horcrux back where it came from or so help me”

“Fifth year: I still have no idea what’s going on”

“I don’t have bones and I am not surprised”

“Hermione solves everything, even faster than Annabeth Chase (though I have no idea who that is)”

“I have to catch a flying golden shit”

“I’m dead, but not really”

“An ancient cup tries to tell me what to do”

“To all the boys I’ve ever killed before - Tom Riddle’s diary”

“Wingardium Levifuckyou”
