Publisher's summary

The fourth book in the best-selling Heroes of Olympus series - set in the explosive world of Percy Jackson - now available in this unabridged audio download.

The stakes have never been higher. If Percy Jackson and Annabeth fail in their quest, there'll be hell on Earth. Literally. Wandering the deadly realm of Tartarus, every step leads them further into danger. And, if by some miracle they do make it to the Doors of Death, there's a legion of bloodthirsty monsters waiting for them.

Meanwhile, Hazel and the crew of the Argo II have a choice: to stop a war or save their friends. Whichever road they take one thing is certain - in the Underworld, evil is inescapable.

Good story, narrating was too monotonous

It was hard to stick to end. Even if the narrator did convey the characters, I miss Jessie Berenstein's narration of the series.

I have a solution to the narrator problem!

Stop listening for about 3months or until you
Forget the original narrator’s voice
And listen to it.
it’s pretty good!
But,you might think that the original narrator’s voice weird.

The narration is bad

Compared to Joshua Swansons narration this really doesn't meet the standard in depicting the characters etc.

Rick riodan did it again

After percy Jackson I didn't think I'd find another series that could top it but then I found heroes of olympus and the entire series is very much worth the read and hours it takes

Lost the magical audio appeal

Really struggled to finish with new narrator, found myself skipping forward and forward too often.
Considering return of title!

Excruciatingly boring!

House of Hades lacks the the flavour and the tension previous books of the series offered. Add that to the poorly performed narration, you have an excruciatingly boring audiobook.

Narrators confusing

Our family listen to all the Rick Riordan books and love the story line. Jesse Bernstein made all the characters come alive and was easy to listen to.

Joshua Swanson did okey, but got some of the character names wrong and mixed some voices up.

Nick Chamian is extremely difficult to listen to. Uneasy voice and ends most of the sentences on a high tone. Regret buying the book.
