Gaea is starting to get more active and the monsters keep coming – though a lot of them seemed weirdly easy to beat. Also, can we talk about how kind of useless Jason is in this book – he’s knocked out constantly. I loved the little side quests and how the group split up into different groups, and not necessarily with their friends – it was who was right for the job. The whole plot to find Nico and save him was this great uniting factor for the team. But his growth by the end of the last book…Nico deserves happiness. His whole character arc is wonderful – and yes, painful.
BOOK AFTER THE MARK OF ATHENA SERIES
Having now finished the series (I know, I’m getting ahead of myself) he’s probably my favorite character next to Percy. I also really loved the drive to find Nico. Like, I get it now, everyone’s obsession with Percabeth and these characters. Their relationship is so wonderful and sweet and legit endgame. I did hate that she and Percy were apart…again…but their reunion is sweet…or bittersweet, I guess. Maybe part of that was the dread of knowing how it was going to end I was trying to prolong the pain, but then there wasn’t really any pain and I just feel anticlimactic.īut, having Annabeth go through something so traumatic, to face her fears and use her brilliance to go on this solo quest – damn. I thought it was maybe a little bit slow and I found myself taking breaks from listening to listen to music or just talk to coworkers.
BOOK AFTER THE MARK OF ATHENA HOW TO
I actually kind of feel like I missed out, and I don’t really know how to review this book. Though, I can image how distraught I would have been having to wait for The House of Hades if I’d read them as they came out. Probably because I expected it and knew the next two books were already out.
I kind of expected this book to break me – a lot of people said it might, but other than a little twinge of “oh fuck this is happening” I didn’t really react. I will also say that the big oh my god moment didn’t hit as hard as I thought it would. She’s strong, and I absolutely love it when strong characters lose their strength and have to rely on people. I also loved that we get to see a much more vulnerable side to her, since for most of these books, she’s tough, a badass and never stops. I enjoyed this book and the cute moments between Percy and Annabeth. If you want to check out my review for the PJO series, The Lost Hero or The Son of Neptune – I’ve linked those posts! Things are finally starting to pick up, tensions are higher than ever, and the 7 heroes are finally on their way to save the world…again. What if he’s now attached to Roman ways? Does he still need his old friends? As the daughter of the goddess of war and wisdom, Annabeth knows she was born to be a leader-but never again does she want to be without Seaweed Brain by her side. What more does Athena want from her?Īnnabeth’s biggest fear, though, is that Percy might have changed. Avenge me. Annabeth already feels weighed down by the prophecy that will send seven demigods on a quest to find-and close-the Doors of Death. In her pocket, Annabeth carries a gift from her mother that came with an unnerving command: Follow the Mark of Athena.
Annabeth hopes that the sight of their praetor Jason on deck will reassure the Romans that the visitors from Camp Half-Blood are coming in peace.Īnd that’s only one of her worries. With its steaming bronze dragon figurehead, Leo’s fantastical creation doesn’t appear friendly. As Annabeth and her friends Jason, Piper, and Leo fly in on the Argo II, she can’t blame the Roman demigods for thinking the ship is a Greek weapon. Just when she’s about to be reunited with Percy-after six months of being apart, thanks to Hera-it looks like Camp Jupiter is preparing for war.
