This was a re-read for me. I really loved seeing Leo again and seeing his relationship with Calypso grow and develop. I also love the parallels between Apollo and Calypso learning to deal with their newfound mortality. Overall this was a really interesting continuation of the series, and I love how complicated the prophecies are getting. Especially since Apollo is the god of prophecy.
Graphic: Death, Violence, Grief, Murder, and Injury/Injury detail
Minor: Animal death
While this was more on the sad side towards the end, it was still YA appropriate in my opinion.
