I almost cried when Meg asked Apollo for a unicorn and then Apollo just snapped his fingers to will that unicorn into existence. The sweetest farewell is of course with Meg, who have been with him from the very beginning. It's so sweet of him to visit all the demigods who've been by his side throughout his quests. Hopefully I don't spoil too much when I say that Apollo managed to regain his godhood and went back to Olympus. But I'm glad Rick Riordan wrapped up this whole series really well and gave us all a very heartwarming ending. This book managed to keep me on the edge of my seat almost the whole time, because I'm constantly afraid that someone else will end up dying again. Sometimes you need a second shot, and a third, and a fourth."There are so many more memorable scenes from this book, such as: the moment when Meg finally breaks free from Nero's manipulation, the demigods from Camp Half-Blood storming the Tower of Nero, Apollo's bursts of godly power, and of course the final battle between Apollo and Python. And yet, along with humility, I'd learned something else: getting humiliated is only the beginning, not the end. ![]() So much humility that now, facing my old nemesis, I was racked with self-doubt. ![]()
