 This was an incredibly fast-paced ending to an excellent trilogy. Things moved so quick it was sometimes a struggle to keep up however when the end of the world is fast approaching it makes sense that the characters would be in a rush.

The development of Carter and Zia’s and Sadie and Walt/Anubis’ relationship was really sweet to witness. Getting Bes back was lovely and him ending up with Tarawet was perfect and Bast was as fiercely protective as always in an endearing way.

I’m glad I finally got myself to read this series as Riordan’s style felt nostalgic whilst giving me something new.
