10/10. A lot of people crap on this book but honestly I really like it. I love Piper and Leo and I find Jason to be an interesting character (if a little underdeveloped so far). I could do without the weird almost forced romance between Jason and Piper but it's not terrible. Leo may be my favorite character from both series and I just want to give him a hug. I also love the multiple POVs because they give a lot of further insight into the characters.

A whole host of new heroes and adventures for Camp Half-Blood. While it took me a good 100 pages to accept Percy is not in this book and missing him terribly, I did come to love Jason, Piper, and Leo as characters. I was also surprised by how much more developed Riordan's writing feels in this book when compared to the entirety of the first series. I did find some of the monster fights a bit repetitive, but it was a fun read all-around and I'm excited to read the next installment!
