This one clearly IS a masterpiece. After The Mark Of Athena, it was for than crucial to know what happened to our favorite characters into Tartarus. Rick Riordan uses his wonderful imagination to bring us into it with so many good tricks, great events and such a good use of ancient Greek myths you have to admit he's a genius. And that's only talking about the part in Tartarus, but of course the rest of it is a masterpiece too.

Essendo il quarto libro della saga non si poteva chiedere meno azione e meno colpi di scena! Un libro che pagina dopo pagina fa crescere la curiosità sul come si risolverà la situazione! un libro degno della saga e avvincente! per quanto riguarda la spedizione è stata impeccabile: arrivato il giorno stabilito, con un imballaggio adeguato e il libro era in ottime condizioni!

„Percy Jackson- The House of Hades“ von Rick Riordan ist nun schon der 4. Band der Folgeserie “The Heroes of Olympus” und somit der voraussichtlich vorletzte Band der Reihe (was ich nicht hoffe!). Schon die erste Serie der Percy Jackson Bücher war ein super Zusammenspiel aus spannenden griechischen Sagengeschichten hineingezaubert in unsere langweilige moderne Welt. Die neue Serie kann aber durchaus noch einen drauf legen mit einem neuen und interessanten Erzählstil, vielen weiteren und unterschiedlicheren Charakteren und tollen Handlungssträngen und bisher wenig erwähnten Sagengestalten. Doch der Reihe nach, fangen wir mit dem Erzählstil an. Im Gegensatz zu den meisten Romanen und auch in der vorherigen Serie von Rick Riordan wird die Geschichte meist aus der Sicht eines Charakters (meist der Hauptcharakter) berichtet. Zu langweilig und zu eingeschränkt fand vielleicht der Autor und überraschte seine Leser in der Reihe „Heroes of Olympus“ mit Abwechselnden Sichtweisen, indem über ein oder mehrere Kapitel immer die Gedanken und Geschehnisse aus der Sicht eines Halbgottes geschildert werden. Könnte konfus machen, gibt der ganzen Geschichte aber eine unglaubliche Spannung, da bei einem Wechsel der Charaktere auch teilweise andere Handlungsstränge weitergeführt werden. Übersichtlich wird bei den Kapitelanfängen mit den entsprechenden Namen gut ausgezeichnet, wer der betreffende Charakter gerade ist. So können diejenigen, die ihrem Lieblingscharakter in einem Zug folgen wollen einfach das Buch durchblättern, bis er wieder zu Kapiteln mit dem Namen des Charakters kommt. Super Sache! Die Story führt nahtlos in der Gesamtstory weiter. Deswegen wäre es Interessierten und Neu- Percy Jackson- Lesern zu raten wenigstens die ersten drei Bücher der neuen Serie zu lesen. Diesmal befinden sich dich 2 Haupthandlungsstränge zum einen mit Percy und seiner Freundin Annabeth in Tartarus (der Unterwelt) und müssen sich zu den Toren der Unterwelt kämpfen ohne dabei drauf zugehen. Der andere Handlungsstrang führt mit ihren Freunden auf ihrem Luftschiff (der Argo II) und ihrer Fahrt zum Haus des Hades fort. Die 6 Halbgötter haben dabei nicht nur gegen Monster sondern auch mit sich selbst einige Kämpfe auszufechten. Und um allem noch ein bisschen Druck zu untersetzen müssen sie sich sehr beeilen, damit ihre beiden Camps sich nicht gegenseitig bekriegen. Keine einfache Aufgabe also. Ob sie erfolgreich sind, das müsst ihr selbst herausfinden. Ich habe mir das Taschenbuch gekauft, weil es auf Englisch so am schnellsten zu bekommen war und ich einfach nicht warten konnte. Die Bücher sind allerdings von ihrem Umfang und der Größe nicht mehr für ein Taschenbuch geeignet und sollten entweder auf ein richtiges Taschenbuchformat angepasst werden oder nur als Hardcover rausgebracht werden. Das Unformat, die Größe und die Dicke machen das Taschenbuch zum nebenbei oder to go- lesen unmöglich und gestalten das Lesen auch so eher Fazit: Für Percy Jackson- Fans ein MUSS und auch wirklich lesenswert ohne auch nur eine Seite, einen Satz, ein Wort zu bereuen. Mein Tipp: Wartet wenn möglich auf das Hardcover oder holt es euch als E-Books wenn ihr nicht warten könnt. Für Nicht- Fans: Fangt mit der Reihe von vorne an. Ihr werdet es nicht bereuen, wenn ihr euch auch nur ein bisschen für griechisch- römische Mythologie interessiert.

It’s a pretty special thing, friends, when an author manages to create a world and fill it with characters that endear themselves to you for books and books and books and their story never gets old or boring or LESS endearing. The opposite, in fact. Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson books are exactly like this. I read all five books in the original Percy Jackson and the Olympians series and instantly fell in love with the writing and the characters and the world, and now I’m in pretty deep with The Heroes of Olympus. The most recent installment in that new series, THE HOUSE OF HADES, is really proof of something that has been sneaking up on me for a while: Percy is all grown up, and I am NOT ready. But what an amazing young man he is, and what incredible young people he has around him. I don’t want to spoil things for people who haven’t read this series yet (WHAT ARE YOU DOING GO READ THESE), but I will tell you that in THE HOUSE OF HADES, Percy and Annabeth are stuck in Tartarus, where all the evil immortal things go when they are “killed” so that they can be reborn and again unleashed. Percy and Annabeth meet some familiar faces and encounter pretty nasty creatures there. Of course, they also need to make it to a certain spot in Tartarus by a certain deadline in order to prevent the annihilation of humanity, as one does. Meanwhile, the other heroes—Jason, Piper, Hazel, Frank, Nico, and Leo—are trying to meet up with Percy and Annabeth to play their own part in the prophecy and to stop the annihilation of humanity. ALSO, they are trying to stop the Roman and Greek camps from going to war with each other. No pressure. As usual, Rick Riordan keeps things fast-paced, funny, and plenty emotional enough to tug on the ol’ heart strings. I love how Rick Riordan is able to make these books about everyone equally. In the original series, things were obviously about Percy, but The Heroes of Olympus series encompasses a group of unique, brave, smart young people who have to navigate their awkward teenage years while also trying to prevent the goddess Gaea from raising her army of monsters and giants to basically take back the earth from humans. We get just enough time spent with each of the heroes so that we know what they’re going through, what things look like where they are, and how they are dealing with being one of the prophesied 7. THE HOUSE OF HADES gives each character time to shine and show how important they all are to the story (and each other, let’s be honest). To me, though, the storylines that have stayed with me from THE HOUSE OF HADES involve Percy and Annabeth and Nico. SIGH. These kids. I’ve spent so much time with them over the years that I feel really attached to them, and I think they had some of the more emotional storylines in THE HOUSE OF HADES. Percy and Annabeth are, as they often seem to be, the heart of this series. Of both series. They are spending time together in the horrid waste that is Tartarus, running not just for their lives but also to save the lives of everyone and everything they know and love. It was lovely to see them fight for each other and worry about one another and find strength in each other. They’re growing up so fast! WAH! But it’s really impossible not to love them, separately and together. It’s been so great to see their relationship mature. And so that leads me to Nico. OMG GUYS. There are a million reasons that I want to give Nico De Angelo big squishy hugs, but his storyline in THE HOUSE OF HADES is kind of heartbreaking and very emotional and just makes me love him even more. Mostly, though, I imagine that it’s empowering for lots of readers and that’s what makes it so wonderful. Rick Riordan deals with an important issue with lots of heart and grace, and the way the other characters react to it is lovely. NICO ILYYYYYYY! Of course the drama surrounding our heroes in THE HOUSE OF HADES is, as always, full of surprises and fun and danger. Gaea is growing stronger the closer it gets to her appointed date for TOTAL EARTHLY DESTRUCTION. She’s making it almost impossible for the crew on the Argo II to make it where they need to go to help Percy and Annabeth. Plus, Hazel is coming into her magical abilities and realizes that she’ll need to play a really important role in the success or failure of their mission. The situation is growing more and more dire for our heroes. It was hard to put THE HOUSE OF HADES down because so much was going on. I honestly can’t recommend Rick Riordan’s Greek/Roman mythology books enough. Percy Jackson is an excellent hero: flawed, brave, confident. The other heroes in THE HOUSE OF HADES all have their own doubts and strengths as well, and Rick Riordan doesn’t shy away from showing us any of them. Honestly: READ THESE. You’ll be feeling like a mama bear over these kiddos in no time. THE BLOOD OF OLYMPUS, I need you and fear you all at once.
