While I don’t think it’s better than the 2nd book in the series; it’s a good conclusion to a pretty dang good series. Riordan is a good author and the books are aged up, but I think what keeps this particular book from being rated more highly for me is that a good number of the plot points and “twists” were predictable and guessable. However, the characters and main plot are interesting; predictability is okay so long as you make it interesting and honestly, Rick has usually done that well or at least well enough! Alot of good points in this book and makes me curious about Egyptian mythology
