"crazy that I remembered only the jokes vividily from when I read this as a child. the premise of the book and like a lot of the new characters introduced in this book? utterly forgotten. but I remembered Bes and his speedo and Ra and his baby talk! crazy that's what my child mind latched onto lol"
"I think I like the characters more as they have matured. The sister, the girl protagonist, has a much stronger voice in this book, and therefore character, than her brother. The pacing in the book was slightly inconsistent; sometimes a period of minutes l would last pages and pages and at other times a period of hours would go by in a sentence. Timing in important in all Riordan's books though as there is always a deadline, so I am sure he has to outline his events really specifically and can't write too much about each and every hour or else the books would be too long."
