Short Review: There isn't anything particularly special about the end of this trilogy. Riordan uses many of the same types of plot points and young adult/children's book motivations that have been used by many other books. But you don't need anything different to be a solid book.
I like Riordan's writing and this is a solid books by Riordan. It was a good palate cleanser between heavier books.
