    Well, apparently Percy is attractive to both guys and girls, Greek and Roman, even 3000 year old sorceresses.
    That's just how awesome he is.

    Oh and think about the part where Percy looks to the stars and says "Bob says hello." Bob is the father of Atlas and Atlas is the father of Zoe Nightshade. i started to cry at the thought of bob saying hello to his Grandchild :'(

    The Cupid scene with Jason and Nico really made me appreciate Jason a lot more. I agree that he's been kind of useless this whole series xD But his reaction to Nico's sexuality was just so... perfect, it kind of made me jealous of Nico tbh. He was such a good friend, so accepting and sweet about it... that's something I didn't have with my coming out experience. I don't know, I just... you've got to give him credit for being so calm and accepting and such an amazing friend. Most people's reactions are really awful.

During the whole scene I was like he would never leave and how much that killed Percy, with her doing that

If you don't count Reyna's announcement where she hugs Nico afterwards then he never got credit

    My favorite part of the book was when Frank took charge of that ghost legion- and then he got the job as praetor! The part where I almost cried is when Percy said at the end of the book, "Bob says hello." to the stars. The reason why I only almost cried was because I was in a public place and I had to hold myself. Great review! Enjoyed it alot.

    When you think 'bout it Nico is the strongest of ALLLL of the demigods because he went through Tarturus alone and survived however Percy and Annabeth needed each other to survive. So to me he is the strongest and Jason is the weakest. #JASONFAIL

    • @Cathaiya
      @Cathaiya 10 лет назад +25

      But Nico got out of Tartarus only because Gaea pulled him out of there, needing him as a bait for the Seven. I kind of agree about Jason though - Riordan tries very hard to create him as a strong, experienced demigod, capable of competing with Percy (haha, not going to happen) but it fails - Jason is the least likeable character, the most dull one. There's no deepness in his past, motives, personality, even with the whole 'I'm-Thalia's-lost-younger-brother-and-oh-no-way-my-mother-gave-me-to-Hera-for-service' crap.

I was in Spanish class and all of the sudden I go hysterical, but everyone already knows not to ask, then I start crying and the professor asks if I'm OK and I just start screaming 'BOB. BOB SE VA A MORIR. SE VA A QUEDAR EN TARTARUS.' and she is like. 'Have you finished the activity' and I just nod and she says 'Okay' and keeps working while I'm suffering and my friends looking at me like I grew a second head. That happened today. BTW, just finished the book and every time I finish one the first thing I do is see your book talk about the book I read. Also, I live in Mexico.

And then when we lost Bianca, my heart broke for the kid, and I just wanted to hug him and make everything better for him. And as the books have progressed, and he's been getting so much stronger and lonelier, I've been even more Team Nico. Like, he's my boy. The developments in this book only make me love him more.

I really liked the part where Jason said that mini speech and he made Frank praetor. Oh, and to answer your question about demigod children: So, a scientist (can remember his name) found out that if the demigods were to have 3 children (on average) they would have 1 demigod child, one god, and one human. If they were to have a demigod child I do think the demigod would have power since we have plenty of examples of it in New Rome. Like, Octavian who is an augur and he is a third generation Apollo. So yeah :)

    my heart totally broke for poor baby Nico. When he's talking to Jason about how not only is he the son of Hades but he also has to deal with "these feelings" it made me so sad. I just wanna hug him. And Jason cracks me up, I feel bad for the guy, like he's obviously powerful but i think it's funny how obsessed Piper is with him. I think she says in the Mark Of Athena something about that next to Jason, Percy is subpar. Like girl what are you talking about?! I get it, she loves Jason so that's why she thinks that but she's totally wrong.

    When Zoe Nightshade died, she became a constellation. She is the daughter of Atlas. Atlas is the son of Iapetus. Iapetus A.K.A Bob. That makes Zoe the granddaughter of Iapetus. As Iapetus was closing the Doors Of Death, his last words were "Tell The Stars I Say Hello". Has your mind exploded yet?

    Nico.
    His voice broke at the very start of the book when he mentioned Percy. Percy was the "person he cared for most," even over his sisters. The way he said "Percy is almost there" instead of "Percy and Annabeth
    he lied, "I had a crush on Percy, I don't feel that way anymore."
    The pain in his eyes when Annabeth took Percy's hand.
    Those scenes Jason saw of Percy, being Percy, which was magnificent to Nico.
    He HAS to talk to Percy about it next book. He can't keep running.
    Ugh my feelings.

    Nico will sacrifice himself to save Percy or Annabeth.

      Sorry, Leo's promise is a Chevok's Gun and there is no way Nico will make it through this book unscathed, especially after so much emphasis was put on him in House of Hades. If anyone will die, it's probably those two.

    I love your book talks Christine, they actually encourage me to finish my books quicker so I can hurry up and watch your talks at the end! I just finished House of Hades and I kind of agree with the whole Jason thing which really sucks. I mean the guy can control the wind, conjure lightning and FLY. Why is he always stuck being a complete loser? I want him to have a successful part so bad because I think he'd be an amazing character but he always just seems to be shunned to the side because we just expect him to be great, being Jupiters son and all, instead of actually showing his abilities. I honestly don't think Jason could last 3 seconds in Percy's shoes. On the other hand I also think Leo is amazing, I mean having the ability to be good at building things is no way as cool as being able to fly by Leo makes it so much cooler! I really hope Leo goes back to find Calypso in the end of Blood Of Olympus because Leo was always stuck with girls not liking him and well look at you now Leo you have a freaking goddess. + they were super cute.

Like omg the feels at that part it was so perfect and I almost cried when annabeth had calypso's curse and thought Percy had left her. I finished the book in like a day and a half and I felt the same at the end I was like preparing for a big emotional death or something but everyone was fine and I was like okaaaaaay...

    @mathildecloutier2456 10 лет назад +3

    I'm not sure which one will die, but I'm almost certain that at least one will.
    Percy's not gonna die, I'm sure of this. He suffered a lot and went through so much things, Rick wouldn't kill him.
    Same thing for Annabeth, it wouldn't make sense.
    Leo could die. But it would be too predictable. The prophecy says it, but the prophecies are not always clear and are not always interpreted correctly. He's still a possibility (BETTER NOT)
    Hazel, in my way, has already suffered a lot. Her character deserves a happy ending, and I think that she'll get one. She died one time, I don't think she'll go soon.
    Frank is a possibility. He didn't went through that lot of things, compared to the others. Also, he has this piece of wood that makes him pretty vulnerable.
    Jason is also a possibility. He didn't make so much things during the other books, but he could "shine" by a sacrifice... That could make sense.
    Piper is, like Jason, an option. She saved their lives many times, even if she didn't go through that much of things, tough. But I think that she's done a really great job in the group and she deserves to live a happy life.

    if I had to choose which one of the seven were going to die, unfortunately id have to choose nico. His character his already detached from the rest of the group. However, I do think that would be the most devastating and most unfortunate death out of the 7. He has had the worst life story out of the group; he lost his sister, born 60-70 years ago, son of hades, coming to terms with being gay... He has just had a sad life and I think he will die in the end. However, if Riordan were to give him a boyfriend (not percy) that would ultimately help us to let go of him as a character, as we know that he then at least got some final happiness in his depressing life :)
