PJ is worse than Harry Potter, I agree in that. The author actually does fill the story with the kind of muh representation lunacy Just Kidding Rowling likes to throw in later.
Like the newest series of this bullshit mythology bastardisation has a shapeshifter character who is not just a shapeshifter, she is "genderfluid". The protagonist's gf or something. The author sounds legitimately braindead.
I'd disagree. I grew up with the first five Percy Jackson books (which is weird as I'm British. You'd think I'd be more of a Harry Potter guy in my youth) and I reckoned the author had a much clearer idea of where he was going than Rowling, and really understood Greek mythology (Hades being a tired bureaucrat who doesn't want too much more death as the underworld is overloaded, gives me life).
However, what came after...for the sake of my childhood, I just pretend it ended at book five.
