I recently finnished The House of Hades(Rick Riordan)and it was AMAZING! The story continues for the Seven demigods refered to in the Next Great Prophecy (or, as it is known to the Romans, the Prophecy of Seven). Each of the half-bloods face new challenges that they never would have thought they would ever have to face. From dealing with bitter goddesses to defeating an army of foreign cows, the Seven have quite an interesting journey to face.
The book parallels the journies of Percy and Annabeth in Tarturus, with the others are aboard the Argo II. The book is told through multiple points of view, by awarding different chapters different ones of the Seven demigods. While Percy and Annabeth fight for their lives and journey toward the Underworld entrance to the Doors of Death, their friends are attempting to find the other entrance to the Doors, that are located in Greece.
I don't want to give too much away about the book, because then whats the point of reading it!? But, I will say that if you think that you do want to read this book, you DEFINATELY have to read the Prequels in the series, or else the book won't make much sense.
(Books 1-3: The Lost Hero, The Son of Neptune, & The Mark of Athena)
Seven half-bloods shall answer the call
To storm or fire, the world must fall
An oath to keep with a final breath,
And foes bear arms to the Doors of Death
To storm or fire, the world must fall
An oath to keep with a final breath,
And foes bear arms to the Doors of Death
-The Next Great Prophecy/Prophecy of Seven
