Books like The House of Hades by Rick Riordan
Hazel stands at a crossroads: bring the Athena Parthenos statue home and stop the looming war between Camp Half‑Blood and Camp Jupiter, or press on to the House of Hades. The crew of the Argo II faces a race against time to unlock the Doors of Death, rescue their friends Percy and Annabeth from Tartarus, and stop Gaea from seizing power on August 1. In the dark, poisonous depths of Tartarus, Percy and Annabeth struggle to survive among new horrors, while a legion of Gaea’s fiercest monsters guards the fabled doors. The heroes know that only by attempting the impossible can they protect everyone they love—even if love itself proves the greatest risk.
