This was a satisfying conclusion to the Magnus Chase trilogy. 
I wondered though if the book had sensitivity readers or something like that (I know it's been years) because at times some of Magnus' comments regarding Samirah fasting for Ramadan felt a bit disrespectful? But I haven't seen people talk about it so idk.
Overall, I love these characters and the whole point is found family and I love that!
