An exciting, fun, and funny ride in typical Riordan fashion. I loved getting to dive back into this series and world and meet these characters again. Would definitely recommend as a fun, fast paced read (especially if you're feeling nostalgic for your old favorite characters).

Didn't really like the Reyna and Apollo relationship bits, bit I am happy with the way it turned out. I am left wondering how Frank survived the Greek fire, even after he overcame his fate. Still a great read though, and I loved getting to see familiar faces again!

I liked this one! (Spoiler review) Franks unexpected suicide turned he’s alive! And free of the stick! Was a cool twist that I really liked! Seeing Hazel turned into a praetor was happy, the death of two of the three emperors was great, and Reyna joining the hunters seemed very fitting for her character. I also liked that we were reunited with peaches! Now let’s finish this shit up. Kick Nero’s ass return Apollo to his godhood.

This book deserves a 0.5 star more than the previous one just because Frank didn't die lol.

Quite a ride. I really liked how Reyna's character developed, and how we got to see some sibling love in here too. My heart 💓
