Like the first book in the Trials of Apollo, it was a ride. A bit slower than other Rick Riordan stories but still wonderful nonetheless.

I must say, going into this I did not have the highest expectations. I enjoyed the first book in this series, but it wasn't nearly as amazing as Rick Riordan's other books/series. And I must say this one wasn't either but I definitely enjoyed it more than the first. I really like how Apollo is developing as a character, he's becoming more human but its also taking him an appropriate amount of time to get there. I like how funny Apollo can be but i like the serious moments more and this book had wayyy more of those than in the first. Also there was less of Meg in this book, so maybe that's why I liked it. Anyway, the cameos were great and the plot was classic Rick Riordan so overall this was a fun read!

I. Can't. Stand. Meg.

This series just feels so rushed and not polished like Riordan's typical novels.

I really enjoyed this book. I love seeing Leo and Calypso! Apollos character development continues to amaze me and I really love it. Im so excited to see Grover and all of camp Jupiter again.
