Not bad. Sadie and Carter Kane finish this trilogy in pretty much them way to o would expect. While I like the shifting perspectives, I think that Riordan used it to better effect in the Heroes of Olympus series. Also, we never really get to know most of the supporting characters in these books. I found myself struggling to remember which kid liked to create penguins and which one was good at healing.

Still, this was a fun book. Definitely worth a read. And I look forward to reading the crossover stories with Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase.

Loved this as a book and as a conclusion to The Kane Chronicles. I do wish that it was a little bit longer and that the ending was a little bit messier because besides Setne, it felt like everything was pretty much resolved.
