Laviana swore to teach her cohort how to tap dance and she actually went and did it the absolute madladĪpollo's visit to the Grove of Dodonna was fanstastic. And they are DEFINITLY NOT abusing Hazel's power to make ridiculously expensive F+H forever braclets. Hazel and Frank are the ultimate roman power couple. Piper is very happy in Oklahoma it seems. (Does anyone else want a short story about their road trip with Grover? because I want to read a short story about their road trip with Grover) Percy and Annabeth are settled safely in new rome. Tartarus Quest? Rachel's whispered prophecy? The meeting between Chion, Mimir and Bast? (Although that last one might have just been discussing the events of the Magnus Chase series.) The City-Demolishing Fox the Hunters are after? She and Percy deserve a break.Īlso can we wrap Nico in blankets and protect him from the world? Please?Ī Lot of loose ends I this book if Rick decides to write more. Little disappointed by the lack of Annabeth, but understandable. The final battle with Python was done fantastically and Apollo's slow rise back to godhood was amazingly well written. The death of the arrow of Dodona was completely unexpected but done so gods dam well. I Just binge-read the whole book in one sitting. I'm sad it's over (for now), but so so happy we've gotten so many great books and memories. But I'm honestly just so grateful that Rick has written fifteen incredible books in this main series. It's far more realistic than 'oh hey, everything is solved by this one amazing character'. Everyone has a moment to shine, and everyone also has moments when they're just not around. It means there's no real "main character" throughout the 15 books.
I can honestly imagine every character exactly where they ended up.įinally, I feel like people are going to be upset about the lack of Percy and Annabeth to the whole plot of this series. The endings summed up where everyone was in life very well (except for Grover :c). And for a moment, I was genuinely unsure whether Rick would be completely altering Greek mythology to kill Apollo. I was non-stop flicking through the pages on the edge of my seat. The battle with Python at the end was amazing. It was far more about the various schemes from Nero and Python. It wasn't a book all about a huge battle against undefeatable immortals. I was suprised at the lack of deaths in the book. I did not expect that but it was well-written.
Weirdly, the saddest moment in the book was the "death" of the Arrow of Dodona. And I'm really hoping for a Solangelo quest to retrieve Bob in Tartarus in a book in the future. Nico is still wonderful and was written very well again. I don't think anything can top TLO, but I think this did pretty well. This is definiely one of the better endings Rick has done. I finished the book about an hour ago and these are some of my first feelings:
