This was a re-read, but my first time listening to the audiobooks. I think this book is an excellent conclusion to the series. The poor kids have to truly assess the meaning of sacrifice as they work to save the world. While it's sad that the weight has fallen on them, they handle it with poise. It truly is impressive how everything comes together in the end.

While this book does get a little sad, it should still be appropriate for a young adult audience.

Finally! I’m sad to see this story end but I had so much fun. I can’t wait to see what happens next in The Trails Of Apollo.
