An easy read and one can stop reading the series when done reading this book in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series since the major plot after the end of the first book is resolved and taken care of. However, the ending does hint to a few other adventures a reader can experience later on.

First read: ★★★★
Second read: ★★★★½

As the last book of the series, The Last Olympian is where you expect things to get (neatly) tied up and it does the job. While there are some bittersweet moments, most of the book maintains a similar tone as its predecessor - unexpected direction, a fun and sarcastic dialogue/banter and certain sacrifice. The most impressive thing for me is the philosophy - particularly the moral dilemma that makes Percy struggle through all that he experiences in this book. The ending felt somewhat easy, but that did not affect my enjoyment.
