An amazing return to the PJO trio. A fun story that takes things back to basics and lets the original trio show off how much they've grown.

Going from New Rome with Percy and Annabeth getting reunited and Leo (under possession) bombing New Rome all the way across the Atlantic to old Rome, meeting lots of new friends (mostly mythical this time) and taking some time outs to get nostalgic, even going back to the Lightning Thief and the first quest. Annabeth really gets her time to shine and I love her parts of the story. The way the story connected the beginning with Frank getting some "chinese handcuffs" to that being the solution for Arachne was great. Part of me really does feel bad for Arachne. I wish/hope Annabeth's stalling and promising Arachne that her art would be on Mount Olympus will come back and, like the Minor Gods got pardoned, the same can happen with some of the monsters. A lot of them don't deserve their punishments. Maybe Ahena could give up weaving and Arachne could be the (minor) Goddess of Weaving. I liked how Jason and Percy both struggled with feeling like they should be the leader and their own self doubt, and managed to come together as a team. A team as good as Percy/Annabeth, even. The trio between Frank/Leo/Hazel is settling down a bit. I'm glad that Frank and Leo were able to come to an understanding about their mutual distrust of each other, and Hazel got to talk with both of them about how much they both mean to her. I'm curious to see who she gets closer with (or even chooses someone else).

Just finished The Mark of Athena. I'm glad everyone's little adventures and fights got wrapped up, though they felt kinda rushed, especially the Giants.
I loved that the story started talking about how far Percy and annabeth have come and getting nostalgia. It's a shame Grover wasn't around to share in the nostalgia trips. I need my Golden trio back (though I do love all the new characters).

Very enjoyable

I loved this story. It's a great follow-on from the PJO pentalogy and a great start to expand upon what Uncle Rick started way back in The Lightning Thief. I can't wait to continue the series.
I enjoyed the expansion of having the Roman pantheon and the improvement to Aphrodite and her cabin. I love Piper, Leo, and Jason. Piper is great in showing that sometimes words are as powerful as celestial bronze. Leo is just pure sass (very similar to Percy, i really hope we get interactions between them) and with all the pain he's dealt with, I see him being a great hero. Jason is a great addition, having him be Thalia's brother. The retconn is nearly seamless in that Thalia never told anyone, even Luke or Annabeth about him. Though with them traveling around for a year or more, I find it hard to believe that …
