Summary

Brought to you by Puffin.

From New York Times #1 best-selling author Rick Riordan and award-winning author Mark Oshiro comes a new standalone adventure featuring two of the most popular characters from the world of Percy Jackson and the Olympians.

ONE PROPHECY. TWO DEMIGODS. A HEROIC QUEST.

Nico di Angelo is pretty familiar with the realms of death, being the son of Hades and all. So when a desperate voice starts plaguing his dreams, Nico is convinced it's coming from the Underworld and belongs to an old friend - a reformed Titan called Bob. Then an ominous prophecy leaves Nico in no doubt - Bob needs his help and Nico must rescue him.
Of course Nico's boyfriend, Will Solace, the son of Apollo (the god of light) insists on joining the quest too. But can will even survive in the darkest part of the world? And what does the prophecy mean when it says that Nico will have to leave something of equal value behind?

As Nico faces demons both internal and external, his relationship with Will is tested to its very core. Can love find its way, even through the depths of hell?

Critic reviews

Praise for Rick Riordan,
This is the stuff of legends,
Witty and inspired. Gripping, touching and deliciously satirical,
A fantastic blend of myth and modern - (Eoin Colfer, author of ARTEMIS FOWL)

this was an amazing book to listen to. It had twists that were unexpected. A little confusing at first with switching between 2 different times telling the story but once it was understood it made sense. It feels very heartfelt and full of love and sorrow. I hope there will be a sequel to Nico and Will's story.

I absolutely love this book. I like how it switches between Nico and Will as narrators and how their stories are included throughout the first part of the book.

It was definitely worth the wait and I hope to revisit these characters again soon!

Worth the wait!

I have no words. This was an experience.
I don't know if this is the best book in the series but I felt the most from it. If it isn't the best, it's the closest.

I love this series and this book meant a lot to me and I was greatly touched by it.
The writing by Rick and the coauthor was a big improvement from the previous books.
Will and Nico, their relationship, trauma and experience felt so genuine. And I could see myself in them very easily.

The story was the bleakest the series has been and the villain fantastic.

Special shout out to the voice actor who was perfect.
10/10
