A review by cherrykois
The Last Olympian by Rick Riordan

4.5

Having delved into this series on multiple occasions, I found myself grinning like an idiot during the final twenty pages of this book. The conclusion presented in these pages is nothing short of amazing! The narrative unfolds in a suitably grand manner, featuring a high-stakes battle that captivates readers. The character development showcased is of top-notch quality.

Percy, the protagonist, finally achieves a sense of security and contentment. Annabeth's familial challenges, both biological and found, find resolution, adding depth to her character. Grover, too, sees a promising future unfold, and while Luke plays a role, I must admit my personal dislike for him. Nevertheless, the narrative skillfully handles his presence.

What sets this conclusion apart is its seamless transition into setting up the sequel series. The groundwork for the next adventure is laid without detracting from the intensity and satisfaction of the finale. In essence, this book serves as the perfect conclusion to a series that comes remarkably close to perfection.
