I have had my students begging me to read this series for the last eight years and finally felt myself in the mood to start it and my only annoyance is that I didn't do it decades ago. The entire experience was a treat and I'm overjoyed that I chose to do the audiobook version. It felt so immersive and made many tedious drives enjoyable! The story was extremely well done and I enjoyed every part of it. I look forward to returning to Camp Half Blood soon.
