At the conclusion of The Mark of Athena, Annabeth and Percy
tumble into a pit leading straight to the Underworld. The other five demigods have to put aside their grief and follow
Percy’s instructions to find the mortal side of the Doors of Death. If they can fight their way through Gaea’s
forces, and Percy and Annabeth can survive the House of Hades, then the Seven
will be able to seal the Doors both sides and prevent the giants from raising
Gaea. But, Leo wonders, if the Doors
are sealed, how will Percy and Annabeth be able to escape?
They have no choice.
If the demigods don’t succeed, Gaea’s armies will never die. They have no time. In about a month, the Romans will march on Camp Half-Blood. The stakes are higher than ever in this
adventure that dives into the depths of Tartarus.
4/5 stars (really liked it)
This book starts out right where the last one left off. Percy and Annabeth have just fallen into
Tartarus and must survive and make it to the Doors of Death. Leo, Hazel, Frank, Jason, Piper and Nico are
on the Argo II with the statue of Athena and must also make it to the Doors of
Death. It seems that in this book a lot
of the characters overcame an obstacle or faced a fear. Nico faced one of his biggest fears and had
an unexpected person witness it. Frank
also faced a big obstacle. I like how
the book was told in several points of view so you really got an idea of what
was going on all around. We even find
out some surprising things about Coach Hedge.
I did miss the lack of Grover and Tyson in this book and hope they are
in the next book more. Seems like a lot
of the major battles will be fought in the next book.
