I liked the MoA, but it kinda let me down. Percy's no longer himself, Annabeth was good (though when I came to her quest I was like - seriously?), Frank and Hazel were like props (seriously they could do much better). As for Jason and Piper, hmm..... why did Hera choose them in the first place ? Only Leo was the best character in this book.

He's my next fave character after Percy. The part where Leo's attracting the nymphs was my favorite part. If only Rick gave Leo a chance to prove himself, then that would be amazing. But for now I hope that Percy, Leo and Nico do much better in the HoH.
