Alors j'ai vraiment adoré. Il y a pas mal de citations que j'ai vraiment aimé et trouvé magnifique. J'ai adoré les personnages, le courage de Jason, la puissance de Piper et l'intelligence de Léo. Léo qui est aussi assez drôle comme personnage. Les 3 m'ont beaucoup touché d'un certains côté, surtout Piper avec sa relation avec son père. Et Léo son histoire est vraiment très triste mais il est d'une intelligence et est tellement habile avec ses mains ça me fascine. J'ai adoré aussi le fait qu'il y ait une petite apparition d'Annabeth et de Thalia, deux personnages que j'apprécie énormément dans la saga Percy Jackson.

I enjoyed the story, but I feel like it had less charm when compared to the Percy Jackson series. The characters weren't as lovable and there were elements that seemed to be added just for relatability (i.e. the mean girl Drew being mean for no reason besides bullying). I also wish the characters backgrounds (Leo and Jason) were more explored, but since this the first in the series, I'll allow a pass.
