    It isn’t bad, just a bit less than rigorous in terms of mythological accuracy and internal consistency.

      Blake: Gee Percy! It’s one of the Gods!

      Pervy: You’re right, Blade! It’s my father, Zoinks!

      Zoos: Fuck you, Blam and Patrick!

      I think the original commentor was saying that Percy Jackson was being used as an example of good world building and it has been used as a comparison to bad world building to show what you should be doing

        oh.

        Well, I guess opinions about the world building are varied, then lol. I would rank it over harry potter, but not high enough to call it good. I’d call it decent overall.

      That’s a feature not a bug - the original greek myths were not exactly internally consistent either.
