I have got to say, this book is awesome. The humor is as fresh as it was in Lightning Theif. The characters are delightful, and even at the darkest points in the book, somebody manages to crack a joke. I would definately recomend this book to anybody who wants a little light reading (provided they read the other books first.)

I need more Nico.

OH MY GODS!
Aside from this being the most precious of the series, what with all of the couply cuteness and all, this was probably my favorite ever. It was interesting, mostly unpredictable, and I fell in love with each character all over again.
The Percy and Annabeth stuff was what absolutely slaughtered me. These are not romantic books so even the little things that make you go 'aw' make you go 'aw' in a big way, I compared it to seeing Ron and Hermione after they got together, not because they had the same couple dynamic but because the first series was all about the buildup and not we're reaping the rewards.
I don't want to give away the big ending but JEEZE! I should have seen it coming but I didn't and even if I had I don't think it would have decreased the effect. Phyew
