Publisher's summary

At the conclusion of The Mark of Athena, Annabeth and Percy tumble into a pit leading straight to the Underworld. The other five demigods have to put aside their grief and follow Percy's instructions to find the mortal side of the Doors of Death. If they can fight their way through the Gaea's forces, and Percy and Annabeth can survive the House of Hades, then the Seven will be able to seal the Doors from both sides and prevent the giants from raising Gaea. But, Leo wonders, if the Doors are sealed, how will Percy and Annabeth be able to escape?

They have no choice. If the demigods don't succeed, Gaea's armies will never die. They have no time. In about a month, the Romans will march on Camp Half-Blood. The stakes are higher than ever in this adventure that dives into the depths of Tartarus.

Narrator completely butchered the characters

The new narrator was absolute basura. Even with a captivating story I am tempted to stop listening every chapter.

Narrator too slow but plot was good

Not the best one in the series but so nice to see all of our characters and their growth!
I listened at 1.25 speed because this narrator was definitely too slow for me.

narrator sucks but good story.

The narrators voice is so bad. He reminds me of jillian from family guy. Everyone he does somehow finds there way to turn into a valley girl and then hazel is just bad, like shes from new orleans but he just defaults her to southernish. Kelley is his best voice because its basically just his narrator voice higher pitched, this isnt a compliment.

Different Narrator

I really struggled with the change in narrators between books. It was kinda unsettling. And he would mess up his character voices a lot. And some didn't sound too different from each other. Not terrible but not great.

Narrative

the narrator could have been better. He did not change his voice a lot for the different characters. he also wasn't consistent with the voices. it was a struggle to finish listening caus.

Great book, terrible narration

the story is absolutely fantastic as with the rest of the series. however, the narrator for this book is really not a good fit. challenging to listen to and boring most of the time. it would be nice if they could get the narrator from the previous version to redo this, because I believe a lot of the performance is very lackluster.
