my favourite of the series so far. the plot had so many twists and turns and for once (sorry rick) was not completely predictable. genuinely enjoyed this one and it was even quite emotional at times. i’m really starting to like apollo which makes a huge difference to the first book - a sign that riordan is doing his job

I liked this one! (Spoiler review) Franks unexpected suicide turned he’s alive! And free of the stick! Was a cool twist that I really liked! Seeing Hazel turned into a praetor was happy, the death of two of the three emperors was great, and Reyna joining the hunters seemed very fitting for her character. I also liked that we were reunited with peaches! Now let’s finish this shit up. Kick Nero’s ass return Apollo to his godhood.
