In the year of 2024, I can’t believe I still see shit like:

“It was Apollo’s fault Jason died-”

BITCH

It’s even more shitty to see THIS:

“It’s Apollo’s fault Heloise died-”

BITCH

All the series combined, (pjo, hoo, toa) I think Trials of Apollo might be my favorite. I’ve said Heroes of Olympus for a while, but after finishing toa, I was actually really sad in a way that I wasn’t with the other series. This is my reasoning: *TOA SPOILERS AHEAD*

Lester/Apollo’s narration and character development was top notch. In The Hidden Oracle, at first I thought the book series was gonna be full of arrogance and whining. Oh, how it was the complete opposite. He went through stuff that no other god will ever go through. Pain, and grief. The empty feeling of not being yourself anymore. And he finally realized how the gods are, how clueless they have been about mortals and demigods. Everything that happened in toa was just building up to the perfect Apollo, the Apollo that’s not in fact perfect.

The characters. Like, these characters are so good? First of all, they are so fleshed out. Meg McCaffrey, who saw her own father dead and got mentally abused by the emperor who killed him. “The Beast,” was just himself, but Meg was too scared of him to stand up for herself. And like, how is an arrow kind of making me empathize with it? The arrow of Dodona was supposedly the worst piece of wood in the forest, and so Lester needed to prove the others wrong, and I think he did. Especially in that final battle against Python.

The amount of different stories and adventures. Obviously you would have sooo many adventures, because you need to get a different oracle in each one! In every single one, we’re introduced to a new character and new goal. It doesn’t really start in the first one, as it’s just introducing the main characters. In the second one, it’s Emmie, Jo, Calypso, and Leo. In the third one, it’s Piper, Jason, and Grover. In the fourth one, it’s Lavinia, Reyna, Hazel, and Frank (a lot of characters from SoN). In the last one, it’s just a lot of chb campers. Will, Nico, the Troglodytes, and more. See what I mean? There are so many different stories in just one series.

And lastly, how powerful it is. The fact that it could make me cry is impressive, because I don’t cry at much (book and movie wise). Jason’s death, Lester’s misery, Meg’s abuse, and so much more. It’s just so sad but powerful at the same time. If you prefer a different series, (PJO, HOO, TOA) then tell me why!

If I had a nickel for every time Apollo forgot his own name I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice

I just can't hate Commodus as much as I hate Nero and Caligula. Not because Commodus is laughable and dumb, or because he's not as cruel (oh, he's just as cruel), but because Apollo knew him so personally. They have such an interesting dynamic together, what with Apollo having betrayed and killed him, and I just have to love it.

Nero and Caligula are Roman to the core. But Commodus is rash, loves the attention, the entertainment. He reminds me of the Greek gods and their ridiculous mangled and interwoven history. He's chaotic and bloodthirsty, but he appreciates when someone surprises him because he delights in a show. He'll destroy you right after, but he truly relishes doing it.

Ya know, I expected to laugh a lot regarding Apollo and Commodus's relationship while reading this book (ToA 2)

But this fucking line hit me so hard I almost sobbed.

I'm not going to obsess over their relationship- I'm not going to obsess over their relationship- I'm not going to obsess over their relationship- I'm not going to obsess over their relationship- I'm not going to obsess over their relationship- I'm not going to obsess over their relationship- I'm not going to obsess over their relationship- I'm not-

I never seen anyone talking about it but in The Dark Prophecy, in the flashback with Commodus death, Apollo mentioned the list of the people Commodus was about to kill the very next day.

On this list there were people like his mistress - Marcia, praetorian prefect Laetus, some nobleman and senators and... Apollo's priests.

And it confuses me because neither Apollo nor Commodus ever talk about it for some reason?????

Why would he want to kill Apollo's priests specifically, like what's the reason???

Or maybe he had priests of all the gods there but Apollo only mentions his own because they are important to him??? (I highly doubt that, Apollo talk about the list in a way it sounds like he told us about everyone who were on it).

Did the priests had actually done something or did Commodus just woke up one day and decided 'hey Imma gonna kill all Apollo's priests, that's gonna make him notice me again for sure!'

I know Commodus was delusional at this point but what exactly he thought was gonna happen??? That Apollo would come to him and give him a pat on the back for murdering his priests????

Bro did you not read the fucking Iliad? You know what happens when somebody touches Apollo's priests???

I kinda wish Apollo had brought that up at some point during their arguments in TDP or TTT

Commodus: You blessed me and then you murdered me!

Apollo: Bitch you wanted to kill my priests, tf did you expected me to do?

so, Lester has got hysterically mad and then almost got himself, voluntarily, killed in a span of two or so chapters

and then sacrificed himself in order to get the poison out of Meg

and Meg not only got him out of the river but got so scared for his life that started freaking singing—

pouring her soul and grieve, and despair, and fear into it
