Extremely ooc and unemotional despite the plot hinging on emotion. Only 2 stars because the plot picks up in the second half.

Reading something from the Pjo universe after literal years, and I could not be happier. The tension, the drama, the emotions, the cute exchanges- I live for all of it. 
Will dazzled all throughout the book, and Nico never disappoints. There were moments where I wanted to scream, moments where the two made me giddy with their love. I could not have asked for a better couple. 
Starting from the first, I loved how Rick was alternating between two instances form the beginning, until they finally reached the point where the other instance started. The moments with Gorgyra were just so precious. Honestly, ever since I met Nico, i had just wanted him to have a spinoff of his own, and The Sun And The Star is like my wish granted. 
The prophecy was abrupt but I loved how the obstacles that lay in fulfilling it were so heightened and deliberately set. The cacodemons and troglodytes were just the absolute cutest, and I have a whole buncha respect stored somewhere for Nyx and her power. 
All in all, the book was such a good trip down memory lane for me a I grew up reading Pjo and now I get to revisit the universe, in such a delightful way.
