It took me a bit to finish this book but I really liked it. So much was going on and it has just left me feeling like I need to pick up the next one right away.

3.5

Exciting and fast paced but there were a few focused plot lines that I found uninteresting.

Spoiler

Grover's 'Pan saga' has been boring from the start and this book made no improvement.

I liked the idea of the labyrinth and how it was used in this book. I love Tyson so much, any book with him is instantly better. Looking forward to the final instalment in this series!

This one’s my favorite in the series so far!! I feel like most of the jokes genuinely hit, the fast scenes and snappy writing worked in its favor, and nothing was too scary for me. :) Well done, Riordan! I do think they could have done a few things a little more effectively, but I was impressed with this book!
