Finale to The House of Hades

Finale to House of Hades

I left off with Percy and Annabeth wandering down in Tartarus and their friends Leo and the gang rushing to Athens to fight off Gaea. Will Percy and Annabeth get out of Tartarus alive and make it home in time to help stop Gaea from rising and save Camp Half-blood from the Romans? Will Leo and the rest of the gang be able to make it to the ancient lands and close the doors of death in time to stop Gaea? 
Percy and Annabeth, as I left off, were stuck in Tartarus looking for the Doors of Death. The Doors of Death are their only hope of getting out of Tartarus. But the question is where is it located? Along the way they meet one of Percy’s old friends, Bod the titan. Back on earth Percy had defeated him and wiped his memory. Now Bob has forgotten everything about himself and his past, plus he thinks that Percy is his friend. Bob decides to help Percy and Annabeth through Tartarus. But along the way Bob meets his brother and he tells him of his past. Bob is sad that Percy lied to him and he leaves. Now they are without a guide again but have a general idea of where to go. 
As they walk along, they are attacked by these monsters that if you kill them they release a curse on you. Percy killed so many that he almost dies, but Bob coming to his senses comes in and saves Percy, taking him to a giant that can heal him. The giant heals Percy and sends the group on their way. 
But with just their luck they are faced with Night herself. She sends her children after the group and the groups runs away. As they ran through her castle they had to keep their eyes closed because otherwise they would have seen horrific images that even if they had gotten out they would have been changed forever. They came to the end of the castle and they were forced to stop because there was a large canyon in front of them. It was to wide to jump but there was a river at the bottom so Percy was able to control the water and get them safely across. 
Once they were safely across they found Bob again and they caught their first glimpse of the Doors of Death. The sad problem was that there were hundreds of monsters surrounding it trying to get back to the mortal world. In order to get rid of the Doors of Death the group will need to fight off all the monsters and hold the button of the elevator to make it disappear. They are able to fend off the monsters and Bob holds the button for them as they return to the mortal world. 
Back in the mortal world things aren’t going so great either. Percy’s friends as they try to find the mortal side to the doors of death, are attacked by thousands of monsters. Nico is able to raise an army from the dead and Leo leads them to win the battle. They find Percy and Annabeth at the doors and they are finally able to try and defeat Gaea. But we will have to wait and find out what happens in the next book.
