Publisher Description

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.

“Nick Chamian creates a subtly distinct voice for the character of Nico diAngelo in this last installment of the Heroes of Olympus series. Chamian’s paceis steady as two groups of Greek and Roman demigods traverse continents in anattempt to fight Gaea…Chamian shines in the voices he creates for the gods andmythical creatures, but the demigods are less distinct, so it occasionallybecomes unclear who’s speaking. While the action-packed plot includes puzzlesand twists, this is primarily a story about Nico and his friends coming toterms with themselves and figuring out where they belong. Fans of the serieswill be satisfied.”
