There was a problem. Percy and Annabeth were in Tartarus while the rest of the seven were on the surface. Now, the team on the Argo II has to make the seemingly easy journey across from Italy to Greece to meet Percy and Annabeth at the above ground entrance to Tartarus, the House of Hades. While they do that, Percy and Annabeth have to make their way across the primordial Tartarus’s body to his heart, the doors of death the only exit of Tartarus. At the doors there is a horde of Gaea’s monster waiting to pass through to the surface. Of course, along the way they will face the worst monsters ever because all monsters go to Tartarus. Even though their journey is harder, the Argo II crew has an equally hard job. With the literal earth against them they will be fighting everything from mountain spirits to weird little dwarfs, on top of that they have to worry about the pending war between greeks and romans. Along the way they will fight many weird creatures, make many rocky alliances, reveal secrets, and unlock many new abilities. Their whole journey prepares them for their time in the House of Hades where their worst memories will arise and they will fight some mysterious new enemies. Join the 2 teams journeying to the Door of Death in this thrilling 4th book of the Heroes of Olympus, Heroes of Olympus the House of Hades.
I LOVE this book. For the first time we see the seven split up journeying to the same location. Even though there are basically 2 plots in this story they are both developed beautifully. There are 4 chapters of Leo, Jason, Piper, Hazel, or Frank. And then 4 chapters of either Annabeth or Percy. There are also quite a few characters who were in the original series you come back, Percy and Annabeth going through Tartarus and all. I think that if you have read the Percy Jackson series you can very much enjoy Heroes Of Olympus. If you haven’t read Percy Jackson yet I would recommend you read it first so you can understand Heroes Of Olympus much better. You might also want to read the first 3 Heroes of Olympus books before reading this one because it will really allow you to understand the story. If you enjoy this book consider checking out the last Heroes of Olympus book, the Kane Chronicles, and Magnus Chase. If you finish both the Percy Jackson series and the Heroes of Olympus series there is another installment in the timeline called the Trials of Apollo. This book had me laughing, crying, and screaming all at the same time and I hope you love this wonderful book as much as I loved it. Happy Reading!
