Review of the book + series in general.
A bit weaker than HOH but still good.
Ending was nice.
I loved Nico and Reyna, I loved their journey, their development and their friendship.
These parts were tense but the rest somehow wasn't. It was a very relaxing read despite the high stakes which was a bit odd.
I found the break between the fight against the giants and against Gaia a bit off-putting. It was a nice moment! But I was just thinking about Gaia.
No percabeth Moment AT ALL.
Surprisingly I think I like the PJO books more than the HOO books.
Both series have their respective strenghts and I loooove the characters of HOO just so much but...
HOO simply lacks the depth of PJO. Luke was a fantastic antagonist. The journey had meaning. Here it kind of did not. HOH is the only book that delves into deeper waters with the topic of consequences but the rest of the books is just "gaia bad, Gods bad but better than giants". Which isn't bad by itself!! Just in comparison to PJO.....
