The Kane Chronicles Reading Order

[Adimar Poynter]

Meanwhile, Sadie and Carter Kane are the sibling protagonists of the Kane Chronicles, the trilogy focusing on Egyptian mythology. And finally, Magnus Chase is the titular protagonist of his Norse trilogy (and he also happens to be the cousin of Annabeth, another main character in the Percy series).

However, since all these books exist in the same world, and the characters even interact on occasion, I often encounter questions about how to read them. (Reminder that I work in a bookstore, so I probably hear these queries more often than most people.) Hence these lists!

Thanks, Patrick! I actually have those listed at the very end of the post, because I primarily wanted to address reading order of the full novels, but this timeline is really helpful! I need to track down a couple of these myself. ?

Greek Gods came out in 2014 (the same year as Blood of Olympus), and Greek Heroes came out in 2017 (the same year as Burning Maze). So if you wanted to wait until after finishing the Heroes of Olympus series at least, that might be best.

As established in this question, all of Rick Riordan's mythological series take place in a single universe. I have not read any of his books, but this gave me a question. If I were to read the books it would be my first time reading them and I would intend to read all of the books at once. In what order should Rick Riordan's mythological series be read to make the most sense, and what is the chronological order?

A reminder: Percy Jackson and the Olympians deals with the Greek gods. The Heroes of Olympus deals with the Greek and Roman gods. The Kane Chronicles deals with the Egyptian gods. Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard deals with the Norse gods. The Trials of Apollo has Greek and Roman gods.

Warning: There may be some slight spoilers included here. I tried to put them in spoiler quotes, so don't click those if you haven't read them yet. There might be a few minor spoilers not marked, but I tried to mark them all.

This is mostly in chronological order, but it's ordered more in how they came out and how they will make the most sense. When there are 3-5 books just listed in order, that's the order that the series goes in.

These are sort-of in the same universe (see the other question) but they are with entirely different characters. The series makes several references to Percy Jackson and the Olympians, though, so read that first.

The Trials of Apollo is the third Camp Half-Blood series. Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard focuses on Annabeth's cousin, Magnus, and Norse Mythology, and is sort of a continuation of The Heroes of Olympus, as it makes several references, and Annabeth appears in the books.

This is the first book in the The Kane Chronicles series. As near as I can figure, it takes place around now, in between Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Battle of the Labyrinth and The Last Olympian - it's set in December, and working backwards from The Serpent's Shadow brings us here. It focuses on Sadie and Carter Kane's attempt to stop Set from blowing up North America.

The last book in the Kane Chronicles series. It's set in the fall, and references events from The Lost Hero (which is set in the winter), but in a way that indicates that those events haven't taken place yet, so it takes place as near as I can figure the fall before the winter events of The Lost Hero.

This is the first book in the The Heroes of Olympus series. It focuses on Leo Valdez, Piper McLean, and Jason Grace's attempt to free the goddess Hera. It is set around six months after The Last Olympian.

This is a short story that focuses on Leo's attempt to recover a part before his project destroys Camp Half-Blood, while simultaneously dealing with the Maenads, the crazed followers of Dionysus. It's set about a month after The Lost Hero.

The third book. This starts around -5 minutes after the end of The Son of Neptune. It focuses on the Seven of the Prophecy trying to avoid Camp Jupiter, and Annabeth's attempt to recover the Athena Parthenos.

The top order has been made depending on how the information has been given, such as the introduction of characters, plot points, etc. This ends up mostly being in the order that Rick Riordan released them in, with a few minor changes that take into account later books.

The Gods/Heroes can be read at any time, as they are the ancient Greek legends, not part of Percy's story. The stories that come with the app aren't necessary for the others, but if you want, read those any time after Percy Jackson and the Olympians, as that's what you need to understand those.

Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school...again. And that's the least of his troubles. Lately, mythological monsters and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be walking straight out of the pages of Percy's Greek mythology textbook and into his life. And worse, he's angered a few of them. Zeus' master lightning bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the prime suspect.

Now Percy and his friends have just ten days to find and return Zeus' stolen property and bring peace to a warring Mount Olympus. But to succeed on his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the true thief: he must come to terms with the father who abandoned him; solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves.

When Percy Jackson receives an urgent distress call from his friend Grover, he immediately prepares for battle. He knows he'll need his powerful demigod allies at his side; his trusty bronze sword, Riptide; and... a ride from his mom.

The demigods race to the rescue to find that Grover has made an important discovery: two powerful half-bloods, whose parentage is unknown. But that's not all that awaits them. The Titan lord Kronos has set up a devious trap, and the young heroes have just fallen prey.

Percy Jackson isn't expecting freshman orientation to be any fun. But when a mysterious mortal acquaintance appears at his potential new school, followed by demon cheerleaders, things quickly move from bad to worse.

In this fourth installment of the blockbuster series, time is running out as war between the Olympians and the evil Titan lord Kronos draws near. Even the safe haven of Camp Half-Blood grows more vulnerable by the minute as Kronos's army prepares to invade its once impenetrable borders. To stop the invasion, Percy and his demigod friends must set out on a quest through the Labyrinth - a sprawling underground world with stunning surprises at every turn.
