We love a bit of foreshadowing when it comes to books, so we thought, since we’ve completed our third reading of Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief we do just that. We only came up with this as we were going through the last couple of chapters. A few moments of foreshadowing in The Lightning …
The Percy Jackson universe has a lot of strange creatures, but none are as strange as the Empousai (Empousa: for a single). These are beautiful women who are the equivalent of a modern-day vampire in the world of Greek Mythology. An Empousa becomes an adversary to Percy Jackson in three adventures: Battle of the Labyrinth, …
Persephone, the daughter of Demeter and Zeus, doesn’t have that much of a role in the Percy Jackson book series. She only appears in The Last Olympian, where she spends most of the time arguing with her mother, Demeter. The Queen of the Underworld is also the stepmother of Nico Di Angelo, with whom she …
When you think of the Lotus Hotel and Casino, you don’t think of Percy Jackson, right? You’d think of something more adult. However, it’s a place that exists in the Camp Half-Blood universe. We did a Google search, and it’s not a real place in Las Vegas. The Lotus Hotel And Casino appears physically in …
The casting of Lin-Manuel Miranda as Hermes in the upcoming PJO television series surprised many fans as the character didn’t appear until Sea of Monsters. Fellow god Hephaestus doesn’t appear until The Titans Curse. So, what gives? That’s what we will explore in this PJO television series post. Since the NYCC panel has just happened, …
When Percy Jackson fans think Mythomagic, they usually think of the production company that Rick and Becky Riordan set up. However, that is not what we’re talking about in this post. No, we’re going to discuss the inspiration behind the name. Beginning in Percy Jackson book 3, Titan’s Curse, readers are introduced to Mythomagic, a …
Percy Jackson changed a lot in his world. He even paved the way for the non-Olympians to have their own cabins at Camp Half-Blood so their children feel more accepted instead of sharing the Hermes cabin. This includes a Hades cabin. The thirteenth cabin was designed by the son of Hades, Nico Di Angelo, who …
You cannot have the Big Three gods without Hades, the Lord of the Underworld, the brother of Zeus and Poseidon and an uncle to our titular narrator, Percy Jackson. Oh, and he’s the father of Nico and Bianca Di Angelo and the husband of Persephone. A son of Kronos, the god of the dead, has …
What’s the first thing you think of when it comes to Demeter? Is it her role as Goddess of Harvest? Could it be that she has a daughter with Zeus named Persephone? That’s what we’re here to talk about. Percy Jackson has sprung up a lot over the last few months with the most recent …
With Percy Jackson merch being given out at San Diego Comic-Con over the weekend, we thought we’d explore the character. There is so much to Percy that fans love, and with the new show dropping in 2024, we wanted to give our support. Editor’s note: since the original publication of this article, the Percy Jackson …
Bianca Di Angelo and Hazel Levesque have a lot in common. They share a brother in Nico Di Angelo. They’ve also both been dead. Also, they share a father in Hades and his Roman equivalent, Pluto. Unfortunately, though, they’ve never actually met. So, that’s why we’re here. To shed some light on what could’ve been. …
Nico Di Angelo, the demigod son of Hades, is known to play both sides of the conflict; his choice of allegiance is often shadowy. So we thought we’d take a quick trip into the sides of the conflict Nico has played over the selection of his appearances in the Percy Jackson universe. As the son …
Why it easy to hate Octavian.
The Percy Jackson universe covers a lot of Greek and Roman mythology, but it doesn’t cover everything. The books do not cover the family of hero trainer Chiron. His father is known to be Kronos, which makes six of the Olympian gods his half-siblings. But did you know that he has a wife and a …
