The original heroes from The Lightning Thief are reunited for their biggest challenge yet: getting Percy to college when the gods are standing in his way.
Percy Jackson has saved the world multiple times - battling monsters, Titans, even giants - but these days the modern-day son of Poseidon is hoping for a regular final year at school. Too bad the Greek gods have other plans, and three new quests for Percy to complete.
First up: the cupbearer of the gods, Ganymede, is missing his golden chalice. Not only is this embarrassing (why do the gods keep losing their magical items?), it's also potentially disastrous. One sip from the cup will turn any mortal into a powerful god. And the old gods do not take kindly to newbies.
Can Percy and his friends Annabeth and Grover find the chalice before it falls into the wrong hands? And even if they do, will they be able to resist its awesome power. . .?
Readers new to the Percy Jackson universe and long-time fans will love this epic adventure - full of legendary heroes, mythical creatures, ancient Greek gods and enduring friendship - from the global bestseller Rick Riordan.

As the son of Hades, Nico di Angelo been through so much, from the premature deaths of his mother and sister, to being outed against his will, to losing his friend Jason during the trials of Apollo.

At least, that's been the case so far . . .
Now Nico is being plagued by a voice calling out to him from Tartarus, the lowest part of the Underworld. He thinks he knows who it is: a reformed Titan named Bob whom Percy and Annabeth had to leave behind when they escaped Hades's realm. Nico's dreams and Rachel Dare's latest prophecy leave little doubt in Nico's mind that Bob is in some kind of trouble. Nico has to go on this quest, whether Mr. D and Chiron
like it or not. And of course Will insists on coming with.
But can a being made of light survive in the darkest part of the world? and what does the prophecy mean that Nico will have to 'leave something of equal value behind?' Nico will have to face demons both internal and external as his relationship with Will is tested to the core in this standalone adventure featuring two of the most popular characters in the Percy Jackson saga.

Percy Jackson is op die punt om uit sy kosskool geskop te word … al weer. En dis die minste van sy probleme. Die afgelope tyd maak allerhande mitologiese monsters en die gode van Olimpus hul opwagting in Percy se lewe, asof hulle so reg uit die blaaie van ’n handboek oor die Griekse mitologie gestap kom. Boonop is ’n paar van hulle woedend vir hom. Zeus se meesterweerligstraal is gesteel, en Percy is die hoofverdagte.
Nou het Percy en sy vriende net tien dae om Zeus se gesteelde eiendom op te spoor en terug te besorg, anders gaan daar oorlog op die berg Olimpus uitbreek. Maar as hy sy heldetaak wil voltooi, sal Percy meer moet doen as net die dief vastrek hy sal vrede moet maak met die pa wat hom nie wou hê nie; hy sal die raaisel van die Orakel moet oplos, wat hom waarsku dat ’n vriend hom gaan verraai, en hy sal ’n konkelplan moet probeer fnuik wat magtiger as die gode self is.
The SECOND title in this number one, bestselling spin-off series
from Percy Jackson creator, Rick Riordan. This crazy messed up
world of gods and monsters is Percy Jackson's reality, which pretty
much sucks for him. Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon, God of the Sea,
has woken from a very deep sleep and come face to face with two
snake-haired ladies who refuse to die. But they're the least of his
problems. Because Percy finds himself at a camp for half-bloods,
which doesn't ring any bells for him. There's just one name he
remembers from his past. Annabeth. Only one thing is certain -
Percy's questing days aren't over. He and fellow demigods Frank and
Hazel must face the most important quest of all: the Prophecy of
Seven.If they fail, it's not just their camp at risk. Percy's old
life, the gods, and the entire world might be destroyed . . .
It's time to face the final trial . . . The battle for Camp Jupiter
is over. New Rome is safe. Tarquin and his army of the undead have
been defeated. Somehow Apollo has made it out alive, with a little
bit of help from the Hunters of Artemis. But though the battle may
have been won, the war is far from over. Now Apollo and Meg must
get ready for the final - and, let's face it, probably fatal -
adventure. They must face the last emperor, the terrifying Nero,
and destroy him once and for all. Can Apollo find his godly form
again? Will Meg be able to face up to her troubled past? Destiny
awaits . . .
