I'm such a sucker for Percy's POV. This made me so excited for Magnus Chase.

I love this one. This story feels like Riordan's apology for Percy and Annabeth lacks of action at Blood of Olympus. It is a funny and witty story written in Percy's point of view. Although just a short story, this one is very enjoyable and worth to read over and over again for the good laugh.

I love the finale, especially because it was from Percy's perspective. My favorite thought of his was that Sadie looks like Annabeth and acts like him and that if they have a daughter, she will essentially be Sadie.
I'm wondering if, because they wrapped up the Setne storyline, there won't be any more Kane Chronicles novels.

I haven't been the biggest fan of this crossover series, but I can't resist a new Percy Jackson book in any form.

Holy shiz just finished reading The Crown of Ptolemy by Rick Riordan a very thrilling short story. It's like woah I cannot believe what just happened. The thing Percy did was WTF. And at the end it gives a preview of The Sword of Summer which is totally sweet!!

ME ENCANTA. Al fin verlos a todos juntos fue precioso: las dinámicas, la GRAN ENERGIA CAOTICA DE PERCY CON SADIE, que volviéramos a ver el dilema de la inmortalidad con Percy para recordamos que no, no quiere ser un dios gracias. Siento que Carter estuvo presente muy poco y eso me dolió, pero ya que, al menos tuvo buenos momentos.
btw, la gran cantidad de contenido de percabeth? cheff kiss.

It was a fun little story, I'm kind of sad the whole cross over thing is over now -Of course with Rick you can never really be sure-
I liked the way they interacted with each other, I definitely liked reading from Percy's POV again. I liked the little flashback to [b:The Last Olympian|4502507|The Last Olympian (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, #5)|Rick Riordan|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327924597s/4502507.jpg|4551489]

Btw, Percy may not have second thoughts about turning down godhood, but ever since that day I've always wondered what would have happened if he had accepted. Would he eventually turn into a bit of a jackass like the rest of the gods? What would he be the god of? -something water related of course, but what?- and how much of his old personality would he retain? Could he be like the first genuinely nice god? Because that would be awesome! How do they turn people into gods anyway?
As you can see I have questions, Wish Rick would have accepted What if requests! Would have been cool to read a story about god-percy.

Anyways I never know what to say about these short stories, I mean It's not like I can talk about characterization. -After 10 book I think we're pretty clear on that- and obviously you don't exactly expect a major plot from sixty what pages. So let's just stay with the fact that it was fun, and really nice to see Percy in action after the awful horrible nightmare that was [b:The Blood of Olympus|18705209|The Blood of Olympus (The Heroes of Olympus, #5)|Rick Riordan|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1400098639s/18705209.jpg|17115101]
