This book was amazing and I have reread it SOO many times. I own it so whenever I think of his books I go and grab it. I feel like the meat of the story is in here, because this is where

Spoiler

Leo meets Calypso and they fall in love ;) When Annabeth and Percy get out together and reunite with their freinds there may be some tenseness but Percy jokes his way out of it.

I loved this book and it only gets better in The Blood Of Olympus.

For Percy and Annabeth, the only worse thing than having to destroy (at least) a dozen terrible monsters is to actually be stuck in Tartarus and have to defeat them all over again, and that's exactly what they face in House of Hades. The demigod forces are scattered with Percy and Annabeth in Tartarus and Hazel and Jason struggling mightily on the sea with danger at their backs. The cast of Heroes of Olympus continues to be quite a bit darker--and more interesting than their Greek counterparts in the original Percy Jackson series. So much so that Percy and Annabeth practically need the horrors of Tartarus just to keep their parts interesting. My only issues with this were just that A) I took too long a breather between books in this series, so I felt like I spent most of the book playing catch-up trying to remember how we got there and B)so many characters have what feels like a pivotal moment of redemption/personal growth, etc. it kind of makes me wonder what is left for the rest of the series.
