Without Percy to placate the sea, the crew of the Argo II is forced to travel over land in their attempt to reach the House of Hades, where they hope to rendezvous with Percy and Annabeth to close the Doors of Death. The House of Hades is packed with glimmers of hope, moments of despair, and more than a few instances of desperate demigods completely winging it.
Riordan took the time he needed to sort out the issues and the mythology, not rushing the plot, but not letting it drag either. My only disappointment was the way the two timelines connect. On the Argo II, a month passes while the crew makes their way to the House of Hades, but in Tartarus, Annabeth and Percy only manage to find time to sleep a handful of times. It wasn’t clear whether this was supposed to represent the near-constant-torture of existing in Tartarus, or if it was simply an oversight in the two storylines.
