This book helped me like Thalia a bit more than I used to. It's a strong continuation to the series, I'd say it's the saddest one so far,

Zoe's death kills me everytime, although I do think Bianca's death comes a little too quickly to be as emotional but still

. Percy's a great main character, he is the strength of this series as a whole, it's kind of rare for mains characters to be as loveable as he is and I think my attachment to the series stems from him / that as well. Very entertaining and quick read as always.
