Set the standards for what a good conclusion to a series should be. And Percabeth set the standards for what a good ship should be.

This book is the perfect ending to the PJO series.
It's hard to review without spoiling, but I think I can manage.
The low moments are LOW, but the high moments are HIGH. The Percabeth is A+. All the friendships and relationships otherwise shown are perfectly portrayed. The ending is satisfying. The characters are true to themselves and manage to be funny (I say manage because I wouldn't be able to if I went through what they did).
What else can I say? It's a great book.

After rereading:
Damn you Rick! I cried so many times over this stupid book. Yeah sure it’s a perfect ending to the series and I love the Percabeth but oh my god(s). Rip my heart out why don’t you.
I hated Luke with my whole being for four whole books and then you gotta go and make him the hero and make me like him. I felt so bad for him. I was rooting for him to fight Kronos off and survive even though I knew he couldn't. I CRIED when he died, even though a few books earlier I was laughing when he got hurt!!!!
And all the others that died. I cried every single time. Even for frickin Ethan Nakamura. Jesus, especially Beckendorf and Silena!!!!! They deserved so much better! (When Silena died, I thought 'I can't wait for Luke to die' and then when he did I was a mess. What the heck, Rick.
Percy was so powerful and it was amazing. He didn't seem as innocent and stupid this time around. When he knocked down Hades, I was so pumped! And when he had his own hurricane, awesome! When he sat on Poseidon's throne, it was great.
Speaking of the gods, I think they're assholes as a general principle, but they were awesome. Poseidon was great especially, I loved him like I always do. He's one of the best parents of them all.

I REREAD AGAIN, I CRIED AGAIN, ALL I CAN SAY IS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
