The stories in this were kind of 'meh', but Percy's inner monologue about his and Annabeth's future kid being like Sadie? BE STILL MY BEATING HEART, etc.

Amé completamente este libro, el cruce de mitologías me fascinó, volví a leer a mis bebés.

En este libro Carter y Sadie (de las crónicas de Kane) conocen a Annabeth y Percy (de Percy Jackson y los dioses del Olimpo), estuve fangirleando mucho porque amé leerlos juntos; se sitúa luego de “La sombra de la serpiente” y de “” así que es preferible leer después de haber terminado ambas sagas o se pueden hacer spoilers.

Reí mucho, me emocioné y sonreí como boba porque eso es lo que causa Rick Riordan con sus libros. Definitivamente es entretenido.

Every since Amos Kane mentioned that Manhattan had "other gods", I was hoping for a crossover with Percy Jackson and now I finally have it in the form of three short stories. Each of the stories is told from a different character's prospective and they all come together to make one overarching story. Despite the fact that they are short in length, there is no shortage of Riordan's wit and humor.
The stories in this book take place after the end of the Kane Chronicles trilogy and the end of the Heroes of Olympus series, so be sure to read both prior to reading these stories otherwise you will definitely be in spoiler territory. I highly recommend this book to fans of both series!

A fun and cute read seeing two favorite pairs. I liked the conclusion to the ending of The Serpent's Shadow (i.e. answering what happens with Setne).

Meh. Agree with the reviewer who described it as a playdate with magical toys. Far less interesting than either of the original series.
