Piper and Leo’s POVs were awesome! Piper’s relationship with her dad really tugged at my heart strings, end Leo using humor to cope with the trauma of his entire childhood really hit hard. Jason’s POV was ok. The problem with him was that he usually suffered from main character syndrome, and at times he really came off as a Mary Sue. I mean, the same could be said about Percy in the original series, but the difference is that Percy was funny.
The story was incredibly fast paced, and at times almost overwhelming. The poor trio only just found out that Greek Gods and monsters are real, and already they are battling enemies just as strong or stronger than the ones we’ve seen in The Last Olympian. I know why Rick decided to this, but in my opinion, the story could’ve benefited from a longer timeline.
Anyhow, I really enjoyed this as an introduction to the new phase in the Riordanverse and I can’t wait to see how it develops!
