I think this is not the best uncle Rick book, but it was a really nice end to a saga the even if it was not as good as the original i really enjoied. I love  all the protagonicim that Nico had, and him and Will were so cute i loved how Rick set them up, love their whole dynamic, grummpy-sunshine is just superior, i also loved Nico and Reyna, Reyna is a badass and im in love with her. Jason is my boy i love how he treats Nico and they have a super cute brother dynamic. Percy and Annabeth immaculate as always i adored the final scene with Nico and also love the Athens kiss. I really liked Frank and Hazel they are probably my fav new addition + Jason, but i feel like they weren't as much in these book. I never really liked Piper i just feel like Rick wasted a great opportunity in making a strong, girly, aphrodite daughter heroin, kind of like Selena (RIP) but like better at combat, i just think it was a wasted opportunity to show that you don't have to be like anti-girly to be a strong female character and insteed of giving her more development Rick just worked in her and Jason. Leo was fine i don't really care about him and Calypso, but i think his "sacrifice" was really noble and a great thing for his character arc. The fight with the Gods and Giants was cool but really short, I whish that we could have seen more of Camp Halfblood and i loved the hunters appearence it is always good to see Thalia.
Overall great book super enjoyable and ofc it has the percy jackson jenesequa that we all love.
Percy Jackson you will always be famous.
