Description
A few months after returning from the depths of Tartarus, demigods Nico di Angelo and Will Solace agree to join Nico's half-sister Hazel Levesque at Camp Jupiter on the West Coast. She needs their help in managing a situation that the boys inadvertently brought about: the demigods showed the monsters of the Underworld that they have options; they don't have to be evil.
Now some of those monsters have taken up residence at Camp Jupiter to seek refuge. Nico and Will are on site assisting Hazel when one by one monsters start disappearing from camp. A mysterious dark force is at work, and its plan is to punish all monsters for their past crimes.
Things only get worse when Nico, Will, and Hazel learn that they're all connected to it . . .

Everything bad I had to say about TSATS improved so much!
I feel like Rick Riordan and Mark Oshiro really co-wrote this book. In TSATS one could always notice when the other writer took over- here it’s much more seamless! Absolute wonder of a character cast - they play into each other so nicely! And this book, I feel, is integrated much more smoothly into the overall story happening within the Percy Jackson Universe. The most negative thing I had to say about the Sun and the Star was how often and obviously phrased the message of the story was in the final two chapters. Here, the message is still very much in-your-face, but not literally spelled out every two paragraphs, so the ending was a whole lot more enjoyable to read! On the topic of topics and messages; the embracing change part of it fits in so well with the narrative of the entirety of Percy Jackson. Really helped tie it down as less of a spin-off, but more of an actual part of the story. The partial focus on Hazel was also wonderful to read about and I loved how one could see how much more in tune she and Nico get with every second they spend together - the formatting starting at chapter 37 really highlights this and it’s just a joy to read. The ingenuity they showed to figure out the Roman technology (to refrain from spoilers) is also greatly appreciated! Thank you, Uncle Rick and Mark! For a lovely book and for showing how you can also grow in working together!
This new Nico di Angelo Adventure is absolutely about accepting your own emotions and accepting yourself as you are. Nico, Will and Camp Jupiter are confronted with new campers, who are firstly not accepted by the other legionnaires. It is a metaphor for accepting others who are different from you and fighting stereotypes. It is also about asking and accepting love and help.
This book is a masterpiece. Oncel Rick did not disappoint. Thank you for letting Nico find peace and also thanks for letting Annabeth and Percy have their peace!
Super Buch, ich mag Nico und Will einfach gerne und dann noch mit Hazel im Bunde echt super! Aber, ich muss sagen, dass der Kram mit den Mythics echt ein bisschen random war, nach dem Motto wir sind jetzt gut. Auch diese Nachempfindung von dem Gericht der Unterwelt war irgenwie ein bisschen komisch, deswegen leider keine 5 Sterne. Ich hatte trotzdem sehr viel Spaß beim lesen
