Though the Greek and Roman crew members 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.

before i read this sires i hated reading but after this my life was whole when i was done with the sires i started reading other books but in my life i will never forget this book.

A great way to end the Percy Jackson series. Warning: is a bit sad towards the end, but still a great ending overall.

I loved this book so so so much. The main characters in this book are Percy, Jason, Annabeth, Reyna, Coach Hedge, Nico, Hazel, Piper, Leo, and Frank. These characters are all demigods, half God and half human. There are two kinds of demigods out of these characters -- Roman and Greek. They go to two different camps, Camp Jupiter and Camp Half Blood. They are going on two different quests out of two different groups. One of the groups is Reina, Coach Hedge, and Nico. The other group is everybody else. The first group is on a quest to deliver the Athena Pathenos to camp Half Blood to stop war between the Romans and the Greeks. The other quest is to stop Gaea from awakening. Gaea is an evil goddess, the Earth. But trouble happens as Reyna, Coach Hedge, and Nico start getting followed by Orion, the Giant Hunter. And trouble also strikes the other group when they get outwitted at the place where Gaea rises. Will the heroes fail utterly or will they end up winning?? The ending is an ultimate cliffhanger. I wish that there was at least one more chapter!!! My favorite characters were Reyna and Annabeth because they are both such good leaders and really brave. I think the message in this story is to try to save the world! If you enjoy fantasy stories you will simply LOVE this!!

This is an wasome book. It is for ages 7 and up if your a good reader. It is my favorite book of Heros of Olympos. It is about how Rena, Nico, and Coach Hedge are trying to ruturn a magical statue to Camp Half Blood in order to make peace with the Romans. But on the way they are noticing Nico is starting to fade and the Roman Octovon has filthy plans to destroy the camp. Will they return the statue in time to make peace? There is also other problems the Argo 2 ships crew is trying to stop Gea from waking. Will the Romans and Greeks make peace to fix the gods and stop Gea or will Gea win and destroy everything? My favorite part is when all of the gods like an army of gods rush in to stop the Giants and work with their kids! This is a great action packed, Greek Mythology and awsome book that I am sure you will love!

I read the entirety of the PJO and HoO series. I loved all the books. Rick's got a great sense of humor and his books never fail to entertain. It's hard, now that I'm out of the age range, but I was a baby fourth grader when the book series began and it's been a long journey. Thank you for the great reads, Rick, I've enjoyed them greatly. I really want to hear more from Nico!!! I've written a 15K word story on him but it's incomplete. Help me out, buddy! *spoiler* Rick, while I love it, you must let some characters go, man! You just have to.

I'v read every single Percy Jackson (and Heroes of Olympus) twice. The reason i'm reviewing The Heroes Of Olympus is because its the last book of both of the series If you haven't heard yet a new series is coming out Magics test or some thing like that. This review was made 2015

This book is the action finale of this amazing series. 7 demigods led by Percy Jackson unites the Romans and Greeks to fight this war against Gaea. Gaea has monsters and giants that they had to fight. The gods joined them in the battle of their lives, and they won.

I am still reading it and I am at the part where Percy, Annabeth, Jason, Piper, Leo, Hazel and Frank are at war with a bunch of giants. Up til there IT IS AWESOME. I love all the Percy Jackson books!

I waited a long time to get this book. I really liked even though it wasn't as good as I expected it to be. The ending was a little bit disappointing, but I really liked it still, like I like all of the other Percy Jackson books.

This has to be absolutely one of the best books I have ever read!
