3rd book down! Glad to be over halfway through this series. Im about to start Daughter of the Deep and im excited to get out of Apollo’s head. There was a surprising amount of death in this book. I feel like it isn’t normal if Ricks work to have so much of it in his books but this was very grief stricken. The warrior driads were cool, I loved seeing Grover again, the Coach Hedge fight scene was funny and the whole Jason thing felt… unreal. No way.
