I found The Lost Hero to be an excellent read and The Son of Neptune continues that tradition. Our favourite seaweed brain Percy is finally back, and even as an amnesiac he is entertaining as always. The new PoV characters Hazel and Frank are also pretty great, and they both have compelling backstories and character arcs. And of course the plot is engaging and full of twists, turns, and monsters; but at this point you expect that from Rick. So yup, another amazing entry in the Heroes of Olympus. 

WHY DID RICK HAVE TO END THE BOOK THERE?????? Oh man, now I have to pick up The Mark of Athena!
