I love this book. I thought it was a really good ending. I loved magnus and Alex’s relationship, and the final battle with loki was really interesting. I really like this book and I hope we get to see the characters again.

I love this book, I love magnus chase, I love samirah, I love Alex, I love literally everyone in this book.

I’m so glad that Percy and Annabeth will be in the next book. Obviously the series doesn’t need them just to be good, but it will be nice to see them again. I am so excited to see how they’re going to deal with Loki.

I did enjoy reading this book, but for the first have of this book I had no idea what was going on, and I’m still a bit unclear on some parts (that’s probably mostly my fault tho). Some parts were a little boring, but it was also really interesting at some parts especially towards the end. Overall, it was a pretty good book.

I did not need this book, it was basically the same as the original except the ending, and I was bored reading it.

This book was really interesting to read. I really liked Sadie and Carter’s character and their relationships with each other. 

I’m not the biggest fan of the Anubis and Sadie ship, because it is a bit weird, but I really liked Zia, and I’m curious to see what will happen when Carter finds the real zia.
