House of Hedes - Heros of Olympus by Rick Riordan

"House of Hedes - Heros of Olympus" by Rick Riordan. This is the fourth book of the Heroes of Olympus series.

In the previous book demigods Percy and Annabeth have fallen into Tartarus, the bottomless pit. This book shows their journey through Tartarus and towards doors of death. The friends, enemies they meet there and challenges they face.

While at the same time other five demigods Leo, Hazel, Frank, Jason and Piper along with Nico are traveling in a flying ship (Argo II) towards House of Hedes, to the other side of doors of death. They too encounter numerous challenges.

Calypso makes a come back after appearing in 'Sea of monsters' from first series of Percy Jackson. Giants and earthborns have awaken and are marching for The feast of hope.

Will Percy and Annabeth cross Tartarus and stay alive? Who is the unexpected friend they meet there? How does Calypso come into the picture? What challenges await demigods on Argo II? Who do they meet at the doors of death? What next?

Rick Riordan has maintained his style and interest in the story. He has milked Greek and Roman mythology to the fullest. The wait for next book begins.

Read if you are a teenager or if you are a teenager at heart.
