All of Rick Riordan's book are set in the same universe, meaning that they all interact with each other and all interact with each other anyway from meeting in person to mentioning each other.
Note: This page is for interactions and mentions between characters from the various works of Rick Riordan, do not include anything from the Rick Riordan Presents imprint as they are not canon to his work.
Camp Half-Blood Series and The Kane Chronicles[]
The series makes occasional references to the Camp Half-Blood series, as it takes place in the same world.
The Last Olympian[]
- In the graphic novel adaptation, when the forces of Camp Half-Blood arrive at the Empire State Building, the Elevator Security Guard is seen reading The Serpent’s Shadow.
The Red Pyramid[]
- Amos Kane states that Manhattan has its own set of gods and that they must be kept separate from Egyptian gods. He says this while looking at the Empire State Building, the current home of Mount Olympus.
- Thoth makes a vague reference to the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series when he mentions Hermes, who he states is nothing like him. This hints that he has seen Hermes and that the Greek and Egyptian gods might interact. This statement, however, might not be reasonable if he is inside a host, since the host isn't him. If this is the case, he might be comparing their true forms. He may not have a host, which would be more reasonable as he should he able to inhabit a place of learning in his true form like Anubis can in a place of death.
- Anubis seems to have the same appearance as Nico di Angelo from the Camp Half-Blood Series. Also they have the same nickname, "Death Boy".
- In the epilogue of the graphic novel, Sadie is seen wearing a Camp Half-Blood T-shirt and Carter is seen wearing an outfit nearly identical to what Percy Jackson wore on the cover of The Lightning Thief.
The Throne of Fire[]
- Carter catches a glimpse of a winged horse flying around Manhattan, and recalls what Amos said about Manhattan and its gods. In The Son of Sobek, Carter believes that the winged horse is a Pegasus.
- Carter makes another allusion to Percy Jackson, when he's drowning and wishing he had sea god powers.
- The Roman ghosts that appeared later in the story mentioned the Roman gods Jupiter, Pluto, and Vulcan. Later, when they were destroyed by Ptah, he mentioned they went on to whatever afterlife awaits them, referring to the Underworld.
- At the end of the graphic novel, Carter is seen wearing a Camp Jupiter T-shirt.
The Serpent's Shadow[]
- Lacy and Drew from Camp Half-Blood make an appearance at a school dance that Sadie attends. In fact, Lacy even mentions that they go to a summer camp together and Drew is a tyrant there as well as at school.
- Sadie's mom claims there will be other gods and rival magic that Sadie and Carter will encounter in the future, since the Egyptian gods have temporarily retreated from the mortal world.
- Walt explains to Sadie that in the world of the gods (i.e., both the Camp Half-Blood series and The Kane Chronicles) that a person who dies and goes to the Underworld, they go to the one they believe in. I.e, if a believer is mummified, yet believes in the Greco-Roman Underworld, they will go to Hades'/Pluto's Underworld.
- At the end of the book, Sadie says that they're picking up unidentified magical energy coming from Long Island. Camp Half-Blood is in Long Island.
