Az Olimposz hősei #5
Nico had warned
them. Going through the House of Hades would stir the the demigods'
worst memories. Their ghosts would become restless. Nico may actually
become a ghost if he has to shadow-travel with Reyna and Coach Hedge one
more time. But that might be better than the alternative: allowing
someone else to die, as Hades foretold.
Jason's ghost is his mother, who abandoned him when he was little. He may not know how he is going to prove himself as a leader, but he does know that he will not break promises like she did. He will complete his line of prophecy: To storm or fire the world must fall.
Reyna fears the ghosts of her ancestors, who radiate anger. But she can't allow them to distract her from getting the Athena Pathenos to Camp Half-Blood before war breaks out between the Romans and the Greeks. Will she have enough strength to succeed, especially with a deadly hunter on her trail?
Leo fears that his plan won't work, that his friends might interfere. But there is no other way. All of them know that one of the Seven has to die in order to defeat Gaea, the Earth Mother.
Piper must learn to give herself over to fear. Only then will she be able to do her part at the end: utter a single word.

Ennek a kalandnak is vége.
Már most nosztalgiával gondolok vissza erre a sorozatra és jelentkeznek a sorozatzáró kötetekre jellemző tipikus tünetek nálam. Minél több idő telik el, annál jobban megszépülnek az emlékek - nem mintha olyan nagyon kéne ezen szépíteni - és kissé keserédes örömmel gondolok vissza, hogy ennek is vége lett. Igen, kissé elfogult vagyok Rick bácsi könyveivel, na. Nincs ezen mit tagadni.
“Atlantis?” Jason asked.
“That’s a myth,” Percy said.
“Uh…don’t we deal in myths?”
“No, I mean it’s a made-up myth. Not, like, an actual true myth.”
“So this is why Annabeth is the brains of the operation, then?”
“Shut up, Grace.”
“That’s a myth,” Percy said.

“My dad gave me a present once,” Nico said. “It was a zombie.”
Reyna stared at him. “What?”
“His name is Jules-Albert. He’s French.”
“A…French zombie?”
“Hades isn’t the greatest dad, but occasionally he has these want-to-know-my-son moments. I guess he thought the zombie was a peace offering. He said Jules-Albert could be my chauffeur.”
The corner of Reyna’s mouth twitched. “A French zombie chauffeur.”
Áradozhatnék naphosszat, hogy mennyire imádtam a sorozatot, de azt hiszem mindenki szellemi épsége érdekében inkább bekapcsolom a fangirl szűrőm. És ha már ezt megtettem, azért kénytelen vagyok pár apróságot megemlíteni, ami piszkálta a csőröm:
“Please!”
That word didn’t make sense to Nico. The Underworld had no mercy. It only had justice.

“Legion, cuneum formate!” Reyna yelled. “Advance!”
Another cheer on Jason’s right as Percy and Annabeth reunited with the forces of Camp Half-Blood.
“Greeks!” Percy yelled. “Let’s, um, fight stuff!”
They yelled like banshees and charged.
Jason grinned. He loved the Greeks. They had no organization whatsoever, but they made up for it with enthusiasm.
“Getting a second life is one thing. Making it a better life, that’s the trick.”
U.i.1: Persze nem teljesen záródik le a sztori, mert érkezni fog egy új sorozat a The Hidden Oracle 1. résszel, amiben Apolló a halandók közé kerül büntetésként Zeusztól. Sőt már elolvastam a skandináv mitológiával foglalkozó The Sword of Summer könyvét is a szerzőnek, ami szintén összekapcsolódik ezzel a szériával. Lehet kéne csinálnom egy külön posztot a sorozatok olvasásának sorrendjéről és magáról az univerzumáról a történeteknek. Hm...
U.i.2: Blogéleti közlemény: Eléggé elmaradtam most a posztokkal, amik rendesen fel is halmozódtak piszkozatként, de igyekszem behozni a lemaradásom. A borítómánia is elmaradt előző pénteken, de ennek oka, hogy elutaztam egy kicsit kikapcsolódni. De ezen a héten már lesz.
