I believe this series tried too hard... The characters were not that memorable or lovable, the plot was boring, and the ending left questions unanswered and a lot to be desired.

This might be my favorite of the series! I definitely think there's a hint in there at the end that this series could continue, and I totally think that's something Riordan would do. Plus, getting to see characters cross series is always fun. I don't know why I didn't make the Chase connection before starting this series, but I totally get it now.

Riordan has a knack for writing great groups of characters, and in such an entertaining way. His books easily hook you in, and they are quite expansive now. And I can officially say I am caught up on all of his books!

This book is probably my favorite in the series. Sam and Alex are still my favorite characters. T.J. Is also pretty cool.
