This is (so far) the best book in the series. I loved seeing how much Percy and Annabeth love each other and watching the other characters grow as a team. I just wanted to keep reading and never stop to see where the story led and to see what happened to the main characters!

If they're not willing to fall into Tartarus with you, they're not worth it. Percabeth is the standard <3

SO. SAD. I don't think I cried, because it was close to a year ago that I read this, but I know that it was so so so so so so sad. If you already got this far in the series and you think that other things in the Percy Jackson verse were really sad or emotionally damaging, this one will definitely take the cake. Your heart will 100% be broken for 75% of the book, so just . . . prepare as much as you can. It's a real emotional roller coaster . . .

The best book in the Heroes of Olympus series. It is amazing to watch how these kids continue to overcome every obstacle in their way.

This one took me a really long time to get through, but it was another good installment in the series. I was definitely rooting for the characters all the way through, and I loved Frank's and Leo's character development. I'd recommend this to any fan of adventure stories or anyone who is into this series already.

Safe to say that Rick Riordan is one of the best authors to ever exist and every book I read of him makes me want to read more. It’s so wonderful how he’s able to creature characters with their own unique and deep personalities and make them work together and towards a shared goal. It’s simply amazing.
