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

Dare I say it...this is a perfect book. Grabs your attention immediately and manages to keep it for nearly 600 pages. Every time I wasn't reading it, I was thinking about reading it. It felt like all the other books existed so that this one could exist, and I loved it. Everything came together fantastically, (almost) every character got to shine, and of course and most importantly, we got loads of Percabeth content! I am sad that these lil guys are all significantly more traumatized now, but hey, I had a good time. Also, Nico, you have my heart.

Easily the best book on HoO. I loved the developments here, especially with Hazel and Frank. We meet Calypso again and Jason and Nico bond. BTW poor Nico. He shouldn't have had to go through all he does. Overall, I loved this book so much!
