This book was absolutely fantastic. It makes you feel every emotion. I love seeing Nico and Will together they're relationship is phenomenal, and they are the epitome of grumpy sunshine. I loved learning more about their past and how their relationship came together. I love these characters so much. So much happens in this book and the stakes are so high. I was enthralled from the beginning. This book is hilarious and heartfelt and terrifying and honestly just phenomenal. The Camp Half-Blood Chronicles keep expanding and I'm here for it. The way Rick Riordan can continuously integrate mythological characters into his stories astounds me, but I eat these books up. I will read everything and anything Rick Riordan puts out, but seriously his next story needs to be about Sally, her past, Percy growing up, and her present life with Paul. 

Happy Reading my Friends.

A highly adventurous book! I really liked it. There was constantly something happening! It’s like a Will x Nico fanfic, but then canon and official! Had a blast reading it!

I know there are more percy jackson books after this and I'm sure they're great but this is honestly a perfect ending to the Jackson Saga, it was so good

I have not yet completed the Trials of Apollo series, but decided to pick up this one due to my love for Nico and Will. I feel like this may have impacted by enjoyment a bit, and I will revisit this once I’ve finished that series.

Overall, I thought this fell a bit flat compared to the rest of the PJ universe books.
