5.4 Monsters and Antagonists on the surface.Riordan breathlessly takes the reader through a succession of conflicts while maintaining a focus on character and bringing in the humor he likes so much, culminating in an incredibly satisfying finale to the saga. It is in this book that Camp Jupiter, and the Roman demigods with it, stop feeling like a second rate Camp Half Blood and begins to feel like another home indeed, the ending of The Blood of Olympus shows that Greek demigods see Camp Jupiter as a safe haven where they could have a future. T he Blood of Olympus sees our characters make their final stand against Gaia, with the chasm between Camp Half Blood and Camp Jupiter finally closed as both sets of demigods come together to defeat evil. The final book in the Heroes of Olympus series does not disappoint as it seamlessly draws together all the plotlines of the previous books in the series (and also closing certain plotlines from the Olympians series as well). It’s a heart-stopping book with twists, turns, and encounters with characters long since forgotten about, expanding the Riordanverse and driving the main plot of Heroes of Olympus forwards.

In The House of Hades, these characters are split up into multiple parties, with one pair of characters making their way through Tartarus to close the Doors of Death while the rest of the group travels to meet them on the other side, encountering monsters and side quests of their own along the way.

Once you get used to the dynamic, this novel is incredibly enjoyable, with characters old and new traveling to Italy and Greece to save the world once more. One of the most enjoyable things about the Heroes of Olympus series is the way in which a handful of Greek demigods and a handful of Roman demigods are thrown together to fulfill a quest, and their differing backgrounds are shown to be both a benefit and a hindrance.
