The Hidden Oracle
by Rick Riordan
4.5 / 5 – Feels good to be back!
I’ve been so busy with school and work, not in a slump, just swamped, but I’m finally sliding back into my reading groove. And wow, what a way to come back. I feel like a breath of fresh air, and honestly, it just has that same energy as the original Percy Jackson books. At this point, the whole series feels like one big, continuous story (plot holes and all). And considering how long Uncle Rick has been writing in this world, I can’t even be mad about it.
I actually started The Chalice of the Gods first, then realized how closely Trials of Apollo connects to the main storyline, so I hit pause and came back to this. Best decision. Apollo is hilarious. He’s so godly and so tragically out of touch with reality, and it works every time. Percy, meanwhile, is fully in his “I’m too old for this, good luck” era, which I love. And Leo—my fave—is BACK. I even forgot everyone else thought he was still missing after the last book, which made his reappearance even better.
Next up, we’re clearly heading toward some Roman reunion content, and I cannot wait. This book just hit all the right notes, and now I’m hyped to keep going until I finally get to The Chalice of the Gods
