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
