Maradonia Saga/YMMV
- Canon Sue:
- The main character, Maya, is beautiful, a genius, a black belt in karate. Oh, and let's not forget that she's The Chosen One. That, and she was an expert artist at the tender age of four.
- Joey, who won an artistic contest and got a visit from a senator.
- Designated Hero: Maya and Joey are deemed heroic despite, at best, doing nothing, and at worst, acting sociopathic.
- Protection From Editors: Tesch only writes one draft of each book and ignores all types of criticism.
- Rooting for the Empire: Tesch unintentionally made Apollyon more sympathetic than Maya and Joey. It doesn't help that he has a 'Club Of Evil' and believes in teamwork.
- So Bad It's Good
