I agree with most of what you're saying. Nico's "coming out" did come out of the blue (hehe, puns), but I do like the storyline. Hazel always annoys me, and this book was no different. The whole Tartarus thing annoyed me too because they got out of almost EVERY situation by annoying little "tricks," and the escape from Nyx proved no different.

I disagree about Calypso, though- I like the way her storyline went.
