On this momentous day of Jane's birthday, we also celebrate our very first ever crossover book, Demigods and Magicians! It's three short stories where the Kane siblings, Percy, and Annabeth all get to go on a big adventure to stop one of our absolute favorite villains Rick Riordan's ever made. We discuss milkshake astrology, Percy Jackson's big British change, torquing off, accidental racism, comic book misunderstandings, saying goodbye to a set of protagonists for the first time, a welcome return to residing in the real world, Codename: Kids Next Door rules, how the mist and the duat connect, the long history of Georges and Marthas, essentialized eternal nationhood, Scholastic book fairs, and how religions are wielded freely and flexibly for the purposes of empire and trade. Also, we take time to firmly declare that Percy Jackson is, in fact, cishet.
Come back next week for The Sword of Summer, ch. 1 to 6!
