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 is such a great book for year 5+ and Rick gives Percy such a funny humor, that it's so fun to read, especially because it includes Greek mythology-so cool! And Percy + Annabeth!

Rick Riordan is so great at enticing readers; this book is awesome, best book of the heroes of Olympus series!

House of Hades did not disappoint! After waiting for a year, this 600 - page novel was much anticipated. Though the first chapter made me think Mr. Riordan had lost his touch, after getting about 30 pages in it picked up. I loved the Percabeth moments, but I'm not really seeing them connect, and I loved when Rick revealed Nico as a gay character. I think its very important for younger readers to understand that being gay isn't "wrong", and I was glad to see this adressed in the story.

This book is a really great book!! and I cant wait for the next book to come out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is one of my favorite books! I read every book by this author.

This is the best book ever if you love mythology!!!!!!!!! If you love the Percy Jackson series I suggest reading this series. The first book is The Lost Hero.
