les personnages secondaires sont + intéressants que Magnus ; meme s'il n'est pas si affreux, ça reste un mec cishet blanc chiant.
y a des passages très drôles par contre.
et j'ai bien aimé découvrir la mythologie nordique.

Honestly, pretty much everything I know about Norse mythology comes from Marvel (I know, I know). So getting to see more of Norse mythology in this book was fun, especially in the ways that Riordan does it. Do his books start to read similarly after a time? Yes, but I think that's what keeps bringing kids back to his writng. They know what to expect, and usually that expectation is a good time.
If you like these mythology themed middle grade fantasy books, then you'll definitely want to keep this one on your radar!

This book was alright. There were some parts I liked, but I didn't really connect with any of the characters and I didn't really care what they were going through.
