These books are getting exhausting to read. There are far too many characters, far too many plot lines, and far too many universes in one book. It is still a fun quick read tho so even tho I think this should be two stars I'm going to give it a generous three. Also the plot twist? Cmon. Like really?

This was such a great addition to the series! I loved getting to know these characters better! They’re all so complex and well developed! I can’t wait to read the last book!!!!

Some series lose all their luster after a prolonged absence. This book epitomizes that statement. After reading all of Rick Riorden's mythology based books, Scott appear to be (and most certainly are) an absolutely ridiculous jumbled mess. Everyone has apparently existed for thousand upon thousands of years. Each new layer of beings stretches back into the eons. One can do that only so much before it becomes ridiculous. Scott did not stop while he was a head. The narrative jumps between way too many narrators. Scott also indulges in what I suppose could be called post-modern musing on what's really right and wrong. (Are the Flamel's helping or hurting the Twins?) All that questioning leaves the narrative without a solid foundation to stand on. With nothing to anchor to, the narrative flounders tremendously. Having read five out of the six books in the series now, I feel obligated to finish the series. If it weren't for my own idiosyncrasies, there's no way that I would pick up that last book. I do not recommend this series.
