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 from 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.
 
This paperback edition will include a never-before-seen short story, "The Crown of Ptolemy," in which Percy and Annabeth fight alongside Carter and Sadie Kane, and more bonus content!

This book was very interesting. Percy and Annabeth SPOILER_SPOILER Survive the fall, and are attacked (Epic. FAIL.) by Arachne. Along the way, they find Bob, who later gains a pet called 'Small Bob' who is a sabertooth tiger-kitten. Bob eventually learns he was Iapetus, and was mad. Later, he forgives Annabeth and Perce.

Oh my gods, BOB! AND SMALL BOB!!! Life is good, unless you happen to live in Tartarus, or, like, you know, a cave in the middle of nowhere.

U and I would get along well... lol

I am not finished reading the book, but I want a spoiler. Please say the first letter of the name that is not going to survive Blood of Olympus. thanks.

no one dies, Nico goes to camp half-blood with Reyna, and Nico is gay.

Okay, SPOILER ALERT! Don't be a spoiler. It's not nice. Even Rick Riordan himself, the biggest troll of them all, isn't a spoiler.

me me

cant belive ncos secret

What, that he's gay??? me neither!!! epic twist

Really good. Can't wait to see how he finishes the series.

He's going to do a mass murder and kill every character. Shall I make a prophecy? (I love doing these.) *Prophecy* Percy and Annabeth turn to Gaea's side because they have been brainwashed or a seaweedbrain-washed in Percy's case. Octavian meets Rachel and they fight for being the Chief Oracle/Auger, Hephaestus accidentally made a fire that can kill fire-prone things, etc. Cyclopes and Leo Sammy Valdez. He accidentally set Leo on fire and Leo dies. Rachel dies in the fight with Octavian and the Romans conquer CHB, every Greek demigod dies in the camp. (Except for Nico, Piper, Percy and Annabeth, I'm saving them for later) When Gaea arrives with Percy and Annabeth in tow, the Romans wish they never killed the Greeks, because they would've liked their company (I mean help). And Romans die, no more half-bloods. THE END :D EVERYONE DIES!!!!!!!!!

well.... aren't you just a ray of sunshine???

Yeah, gees, that's totally going to happen!
