The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan
4.0

November 2020, 2nd read

In preparation of reading the Trials of Apollo, my friend and I are rereading the Heroes of Olympus. I really enjoyed going on an adventure with Leo, Piper and Jason. Unlike the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, I did not remember as much of The Lost Hero besides the big storylines. And maybe that was why I was unsure how I would feel about this reread at first.

The Lost Hero features many cameos and easter eggs of the PJO series which I very much enjoyed as a big fan of the Camp Half-Blood Chronicles. Leo, Piper and Jason do not deserve the dislike they receive from some of the fans. Their story is one of loyalty, tough choices, and found family. It is the solid start of The Heroes of Olympus series and I am excited to reread the rest.
