Rating : 5/5 stars
Hazel stands at a crossroads. She and the remaining crew of the Argo II could return home with the Athena Parthenos statue and try to stop Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter from going to war. Or they could continue their quest to find the House of Hades, where they might be able to open the Doors of Death, rescue their friends Percy and Annabeth from Tartarus, and prevent monsters from being reincarnated in the mortal world. Whichever road they decide to take, they have to hurry, because time is running out. Gaea, the bloodthirsty Earth Mother, has set the date of August 1 for her rise to power.
Annabeth and Percy are overwhelmed. How will the two of them make it through Tartarus? Starving, thirsty, and in pain, they are barely able to stumble on in the dark and poisonous landscape that holds new horrors at every turn. They have no way of locating the Doors of Death. Even if they did, a legion of Gaea's strongest monsters guards the Doors on the Tartarus side. Annabeth and Percy can't exactly launch a frontal assault.
Despite the terrible odds, Hazel, Annabeth, Percy, and the other demigods of the prophecy know that there is only one choice: to attempt the impossible. Not just for themselves, but for everyone they love. Even though love can be the riskiest choice of all.
Join the demigods as they face their biggest challenges yet in The House of Hades, the hair-raising penultimate book in the best-selling Heroes of Olympus series.
I'm gonna tell you my spoilers. I don't care whether you like or not! I'm telling you this!
My OTP is having a trip to Tartarus. And I'm like... WHAT?!
Like, seriously? Percy and Annabeth fell into Tartarus? Why is it have to be them? I mean there are still the other characters right? Why must Percy and Annabeth?
Surprises come along in Percy and Annabeth's while they were in Tartarus. Missions need to done, looking the Doors of Death (while Gaea's monsters keep it guarded), saving their own lives, kill Gaea, united with the team, and of course, ends the rivalry between Athena and Poseidon (by kissing in the place where the rivalry between the two Gods begin?)
Jason and Piper were acting sweeter in this book. Leo--THE HOT DEMIGOD (this couldn't take off from my mind, you are indeed hot)--finally found his one and only (Or maybe not, we still don't know what happen in the last book). Frank and Hazel got more closer and her powers grown too (not gonna tell you, hah!). For all, everything look so fine (except the fact that Gaea is waking and the team need to kill her fast as they can, oh, and make some strategies too). Oh, I almost forget with our adorable Nico. Can I just take him home and make him my little brother instead? He's just too cute to fight all of those monsters. All the cuteness are for him, I agree. And the fact that he is gay(?) it's not enough to erase those cuteness in him.
Going on book five, I wonder what will happen to the great-7 in the last book
