The Gigantes and The Titans: These guys are easily defeated, evil for the sake of being evil, and all, except for Prometheus, just roaring hunks of muscle. Most of these I read when I was a kid, in elementary and middle school. I know, I know: how could you put Magnus Chase and the Kane Chronicles before Heroes of Olympus? And he saw himself as a hero.

They were a danger to their own people, not to their enemies. There's nothing interesting about them. It is also said/implied multiple times that Tartarus was very weak while fighting Percy, Annabeth, Bob, and Dama blah blah + kitty in Tartarus. Not too bad.

Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard Hardcover Boxed Set . I'm actually glad Riordan didn't tackle Isis raising Anubis. That the gods over stayed their welcome and allowed war with Titans to break out and hurt the planet and the innocent among it, and her main goal was to destroy the gods, themselves. When her plan is essentially "Kill everyone", it doesn't make much sense to prevent everyone from dying. This is his realm right? Neither did Kronos. I know this is an unpopular opinion, but, to me JUST BECAUSE CALIGULA KILLED A DUDE DOESN'T MAKE HIM SCARY. He's jealous of his brother.

Simple, but still, he is a good villain in my opinion. He would be responsible for the more devious schemes in the series. Without that weak spot (mentally not physically), then he never chooses to save Olympus and is never "redeemed". Luke is responsible for most of the death in the series and despite how smart he was, trusting Kronos was his biggest mistake. It's because they're so similar that Luke makes for the perfect rival for our demigod. And that was my ranking of the Riordanverse villains. Have you seen her origin story? If you love sassy characters, you’ll love Sadie Kane. Happy birthday, Rick Riordan! And yes, Gaia and Giants are the worst. When I saw Sam in book one, I was instantly like "bet ya that's Magnus's crush etc hate eachother grows into bond etc" but it was established that Sam is already in a serious relationship pretty early on, which I thought was cool, since that was Rick Riordan basically saying "not gonna happen". He's cruel. They're like night and day. Annabeth and Sam are also wildly different, and there is no romantic relationship between Sam and Magnus, which was a big twist to me.

And the finale would be epic, with greeks, romans, gods, gigantes and monsters trying to stop these two primordial beings from destroying the Earth. Yeah, whatever. I'm sorry, but no. He's a perfectly hate-able character. Some might say Luke using Annabeth as bait makes his love for seem less genuine, but I like to think of it as Luke willing to sacrifice what he loves most for his cause - his family.

Also, Gaia not meddling with the demigods means Leo's mother's death is not a scheme of the bad guy. He's supposedly so terrifying and powerful, and we have to hear about Percy and Annabeth losing all the hope for the bajilionth time in the row, and yet, you could've cut him from this, and nothing would be lost. And I honestly killing a major character in a book in which they're essentially a cameo is insulting to the character and the fans of that character.

Loki is a little like Set, but is shown to be much nastier / plays much dirtier, outright almost killing magnus and everyone around him in book 2 without even being close (overheating explosion thing).

Drew: Drew is more than just a stereotypical bully. While that's still true, and while Surts falls into the same trap as Gaia of being evil for the sake of evil, but he works. Utgarda at least has something setting him apart.
