127: Mementos for Zigzog

The Heroes of Olympus retrospective

After over a year of flying along with these funny kids on their silly dragon boat, Jane and Jacqueline have finally come to the end of their journey with the Heroes of Olympus! In this retrospective, in what may be our longest episode yet, we hand out a whole slew of awards, really tear into the themes, and try to figure out exactly why we've come away from this series with the impression we did of its quality. Along the way we also rank every book in the series, finally actually talk about our own end-of-season beads, and peer far into the future of the Riordan family line. We also take a very special look at The Blood of Olympus's alternate ending, which seemingly hasn't been discussed anywhere else at all!

Come back next week for Demigods and Magicians!
