Wishlist Wednesday (39): House of Hades by Rick Riordan


Wishlist Wednesday is a book blog hop where we will post about one book per week that has been on our wishlist for some time, or just added (it's entirely up to you), that we can't wait to get off the wishlist and onto our wonderful shelves.

Add to Goodreads

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 the Gaea’s forces, and Percy and Annabeth can survive the House of Hades, then the Seven will be able to seal the Doors 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

Why I'm Wishing...
I love Rick Riordan and I'm dying to get my hands on this one :) I loved the Percy Jackson series and this one is just as good! I can't wait to see what new adventures the gang takes on.

  12. I only made it through half of the first book, because I decided I was going to go back and read the Percy Jackson series before I started this one, but other things got in the way, sadly. I definitely need to get on this.

  19. I am so scared to read this after THE MARK OF ATHENA. And that cover is amazing but makes me sad too because of THE MARK OF ATHENA. Too many emotions...

  21. Riordan writes such fast-paced adventures-I've only read the first Percy Jackson books but I've definitely recommended both series to young people craving mythology and action.
