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 think it's a great evolution that Rick Riordan has had as an author that lends back to the original Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian series with the return to more tangible stakes, as well as adding storylines that are feminist and casually queer.

Apollo’s journey is certainly one full of strife and hardships. He has lost people he considered family and his emotional growth is so apparent because he wouldn’t have cared at all about these Demi gods if he were still a god. I hope he keeps his promise to Jason Grace.

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.
