  I was excited to read this book because I've already read Percy Jackson's sagas, having Magnus as a narrator made him very entertaining to read and assimilate, Rick Riordan has the gift of writing plots and including characters making it look organic, at no time felt forced any character or any situation, it seems to me that even if I go a little hand in hand with the universe of Percy this new story is overshadowed at all, it intrigues me what will come in the future, moreover, talking about the physical aspect of the book I give another 10 to the book, the cover is the most beautiful thing in the world, the character of Magnus is well structured and although it is not like who knows what to do all the time is a good protagonist, besides that nod to Anabeth from the Percy saga I loved.
