This book is very suspenseful and I did not want to put it down until I finished it. Percy and Annabeth had fallen into Tartarus, a treacherous place where monsters when killed go to regenerate. According to Nico di Angelo, there is one way out: The Doors of Death. The remaining crew of the Argo 2 hope to meet Percy and Annabeth at Epirus, Greece, where the mortal sides of the Doors of Death await. However, Gaea is throwing many obstacles at the demigods. Secrets will be revealed in the next book of the Heroes of Olympus series: The House of Hades.

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!

Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This story is about the five remaining demigods: Jason Grace, Piper McLean, Leo Valdez, Frank Zhang, and Hazel Levesque. They search for the Doors of Death and saving Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase along the way, who are in the depths of Tartarus, trying to make their way out. Along the way, other than meeting difficulties and obstacles, they received some help by some of the gods and goddesses to reach their goal. This story gives me a lot of feelings and it somehow makes me able to feel the same way they feel. This is mostly what I love about The Heroes of Olympus Series.
This book is amazing! Really, you should read it!
