The true underlying theme in the Blood of Olympus is, undoubtedly, found family. It’s shown through Leo, who feels like a seventh wheel. Through Hazel, who sometimes feels like she’s stuck in the wrong time. Through Nico, who is stubbornly determined to not call either camp his home. Through Reyna, who fears she might be outcast by the Romans for breaking their most sacred law.

I enjoyed this book. I had a good time. I adored the characters and their relationships. The plot was good, a little predictable at times.

While this book does get a little sad, it should still be appropriate for a young adult audience.betweentheshelves's review against another edition

Despite their length, Riordan books are quick reads for me because of the way they are paced. I can see why kids of all kinds come into the library and say they've flown through these books because it is easy to do! Not only are all of the characters fun, but there's action and humor and it's just an all around good time, despite the impending doom.
Also, Nico! I can see why people say he's one of their favorite characters because I just want to wrap him in a big hug. I'm glad we finally get to see from his point of view. And his interaction with Percy at the end? Gold.
While this one doesn't end on a cliffhanger, you can kind of tell that Riordan is setting up for another series. It's an overall good conclusion to this story arc, but there's an opening there at the end for another series.
