Meeting new people is hard, especially when they hate you. This is exactly what happens to Annabeth, Jason, Leo, Piper, and Coach Hedge when they arrive at Camp Jupiter. After building the Argo II the crew sets off to Camp Jupiter, using Jason’s instincts to find it. After they successfully arrive at Camp Jupiter everything is well, Percy and Annabeth are reunited, Jason is reunited with his fellow praetor Reyna, and no one is fighting. Until… Leo bombs Camp Jupiter. The Romans retaliate by attacking the Greeks, Annabeth, Percy, Hazel, and Frank board the Argo II just in time, and then the crew is off and they already made 1 enemy, the people who were supposed to be their friends. After the Roman attack the Argo II is in serious need of repair so Leo lands in Detroit, Michigan. The Argo II is in serious need of some celestial bronze, after the Argo II is mostly repaired the crew heads off to Salt Lake City, Utah where Hazel senses celestial bronze. While there Hazel and Leo meet the god Nemesis who gives Leo a special gift. When the ships repairs are finished the seven head to Topeka, Kansas because Piper sees a vision of them there in her dagger. Piper, Jason, and Percy go to see Bacchus is Topeka, and a battle happens. To find out about the battle, the Argo II crew’s journey, and about Annabeth’s secret read Heroes of Olympus, The Mark Of Athena.
As with the last 2 Heroes of Olympus books, I absolutely loved this book. Son Of Neptune ends literally minutes before this book begins. I think the way the author merged together the 2 sets of demigods that were supposed to go on the Argo II was very good. I loved the tension and awkwardness between some characters, it made me love these characters even more. I also gave a more human aspect to it all. The different perspectives played a big part again. Since there were multiple different plots in this story, having the different characters’ perspectives was really great. I also loved the cliff-hanger at the end. I think that if you have read the Percy Jackson series you can very much enjoy the Heroes Of Olympus books. If you haven’t read Percy Jackson yet I would recommend you read it first so you can understand the Heroes Of Olympus books much better. If you enjoy this book consider checking out the rest of the Heroes Of Olympus series and the Kane Chronicles and Magnus Chase. If you finish both the Percy Jackson series and the Heroes of Olympus series there is another installment in the timeline called the Trials of Apollo. I 200% recommend this book. It is amazing and I hope you love reading it as much as I did. Happy Reading!
