Book Overview
The breathtaking conclusion to the mega-bestselling Heroes of Olympus series by Rick Riordan, now with fresh and exciting new cover art by Nilah Magruder.
Though the Greek and Roman crewmembers of the Argo II have made progress in their many quests, they still seem no closer to defeating the earth mother, Gaea. Her giants have risen--all of them--and they're stronger than ever. They must be stopped before the Feast of Spes, when Gaea plans to have two demigods sacrificed in Athens. She needs their blood--the blood of Olympus--in order to wake. The demigods are having more frequent visions of a terrible battle at Camp Half-Blood. The Roman legion from Camp Jupiter, led by Octavian, is almost within striking distance. Though it is tempting to take the Athena Parthenos to Athens to use as a secret weapon, the friends know that the huge statue belongs back on Long Island, where it might be able to stop a war between the two camps. The Athena Parthenos will go west; the Argo II will go east. The gods, still suffering from multiple personality disorder, are useless. How can a handful of young demigods hope to persevere against Gaea's army of powerful giants? As dangerous as it is to head to Athens, they have no other option. They have sacrificed too much already. And if Gaea wakes, it is game over.
The accessible and dramatic cover art by graphic novelist Nilah Magruder will attract a new generation of fans.

Published by Declan , 2 years ago
Rick is great at finishing what he started and as with PJO, HoO was wrapped up with everyone doing their part and character stories finding their end.

This is my favorite book in the heroes of olympus series, i wasn't a huge fan of HOO (i like the original Percy Jackson better) but this book really ties the plot together and has a great ending !

Thrilling Conclusion
Published by Ravenhoot , 5 years ago
This is what it's all led up to! The prophecy of The Seven come to fruition. This book was phenomenal and I just can't say enough good things about it. Unfortunately, everything good that I want to say includes spoilers so I'll just say READ THIS BOOK!
