124: The Riordan Repeat

The Blood of Olympus, ch. 45 to 48 The Unwise Girls have finally reached Camp Half-Blood, only to find that it's surrounded by... fantasy racism? Well, that's not great, but with the power of one special boy with one specially completed character arc, we should be able to cut through to a peaceful conclusion! This week, we talk about Will Solace (who we've always known and didn't just get unlocked), early stage handholding, viewing isolation from an outside perspective, Riordan's favorite relationship dynamic, a slightly better Metal Gear level, a lack of legacies, onager drone strikes, lions led by donkeys, Camp Jupiter riot squads, the problem with trying to make monsters both an underclass and also totally inhuman evil, and action scenes getting interrupted before they can inevitably disappoint us. Come back next week for The Blood of Olympus, ch. 49 to 52! Check out our Patreon!
