I red the discussions. So... your favorites are Octavian and Drew? if it is, it's an interesting taste you have @Lostofme. :)

I'm not being sarcastic btw, I find them interesting too. Especially Octavian. I wish that we could see more of him. That dude seems like a buttmonkey for everyone. And actually, i find him right most of the times. Like his wanting to find the lost Sibylline books because of books can help the Rome. But, every character thought that he was crazy because of that *intense eye-rolling* His not trusting Greeks are justified too, imo. Back then, Greeks back stabbed them, so, as a Roman, Octavian's hates towards them is not completely unjustified. He's highly loyal to CJ, and he wants to protect the Camp.

Anyways, it's disappointing. Drew and Octavian could've been much more interesting and well-rounded characters, if Riordan didn't decide to make them so one-dimensional as hell and straight up Mean Girl and Power Hungry Jerk that Blamed by Every Hero On The Land. Talking about lack of grey morality. :) It's seems that, only the heroes always right and the ones who do not like our heroes are the always wrong and the unfair ones. That's the another issue of the HoO series, imo, it's lack of reality and grey morality. As if everything and everyone is just black and white and there is no grey areas. Covering up allmost all characters (7) 's flaws is an example of that.
