Picking up after the events of House of Hades, our heroes are divided into two groups.
The first group is made up of Jason, Piper, and Leo (along with Percy, Annabeth, Frank, and
Hazel). They're on the Argo II and they need to make it to the Acropolis stat. That's where Gaea, the Earth Mother, is supposed to awaken, and they need to stop it.
The other group is made up of Nico and Reyna who, along with Coach Hedge, are trying to get the Athena Parthenos statue back to Camp HalfBlood as a symbol of truce between
Greeks and Romans…and hopefully stop Octavian from launching an attack against the camp.
With Nico's shadowtravel ability, they're able to zip between time zones with the statue in tow.
They travel through Pompeii, Portugal, a cruise ship in the Atlantic, Puerto Rico, and South
Carolina, all exotic locations in their own rights. Along the way, they fight hordes of undead and werewolves and are pursued by a psychopath named Orion.
As Nico sabotages Octavian's efforts to attack CampHalf Blood, Reyna delivers the statue just in time…in time for Gaea to awaken, that is.
Jason, Annabeth, and Piper learn that the strait of Corinth is chock full of death, and they have to go around the entire Peloponnese in order to reach Athens. They're advised to seek out Nike, the goddess of victory, along the way. She mentions yet another prophecy: one of them…will…die.
Oh No! Percy and Annabeth are injured, and their blood awakens Gaea.
Leo flies in on a giant mechanical dragon, hauls Gaea into the sky, and blows her up, himself included. He manages to make the cure, which brings him back to life, and he flies to the island of Calypso, the girl he loves.
All of our heroes learned to trust their friends. I think this is an important lesson because, if you have a cushion to fall on (your friends) then you don’t have to worry so much about the big things. Of course in this story though the Earth
