I honestly don't get why so many people hate this book. I hear people saying that this is the worst book in the Riordanverse and I don't get it. I loved it! I loved Nico and Reyna's point of view. I've always wanted to know what Nico was thinking and what he thought of everyone else; Percy especially. Reyna's point of view is interesting too. You can see how much weight she carries from being a praetor and how she feels she is always the one who needs to take charge; to be a leader. Though if I'm being honest, the ending was kind of a letdown. Everything happened within a span of 2 pages. It still was really emotional, though. The end wasn't a full cliffhanger but open enough so that you wonder what gonna happen next. Great book!
