  • Ascended Fanon: Of a sort. A popular fan-created mock cover for The Blood of Olympus was licensed by Disney to appear as a poster in the Wal-Mart exclusive edition of the book.
  • Promoted Fangirl: Viria, one of the most popular fan artists for the series, ended up getting commissioned to make official character portraits on Rick Riordan's website.

  • Trolling Creator: Riordan dedicated the fourth book House of Hades, to the readers.
    To my wonderful readers: Sorry about that last cliff-hanger. Well, no, not really. HAHAHAHA. But seriously, I love you guys.
    • He apologizes for this in the dedication for the fifth book, but says:
      I'll try to avoid cliffhangers in this book. Well, except for maybe a few small ones... because I love you guys.
