I think this is one of the main reasons- Riordan literally didn't try and focuse. Because he was so busy to write political statements so much, and because of this, plot and story died, in my opinion. Because, why do you need Norse Mythology and well-rounded characters? When all you actually need is unnecessary political statements? Like, for example, all we need is like that police scene in the book. Anyways, we talked about these, but the police scene just came to my mind when i was thinking and...come and tell me now that wasn't funny or unnecessary.
