The Blood of Olympus (Heroes of Olympus Book 5)

By: Rick Riordan

Narrated by: Nick Chamian

Brought to you by Penguin.

The fifth audiobook in the bestselling spin off series from Percy Jackson and the Olympians - now a major Disney+ series!

Though the Greek and Roman crew members of the Argo II have made progress in their many quests, they still seem no closer to defeating the earth mother, Gaea. Her giants have risen - all of them - and they're stronger than ever.

The gods, still suffering from multiple personality disorder, are useless. How can a handful of young demigods hope to persevere against Gaea's army of powerful giants? As dangerous as it is to head to Athens, they have no other option. They have sacrificed too much already. And if Gaea wakes, it is game over . . .

Critic reviews

enchantingly clever, funny and exciting

the complete package for young readers and their parents alike

an astounding adventure

this is the stuff of legends

Genuinely a great book

I appreciated the attention to detail that came with the descriptions of Heroes and monsters. I like this book because it leaves wanting more more, leaves you on the edge of your seat, and the storyline ever emotive and compelling, satisfies the readers requirement of tying up (some) loose ends attached to the Percy Jackson and heroes of Olympus trilogy. So overall, a genuinely great book that I strongly recommend for anyone interested in good literature. Enjoy.

Good for people who don't like reading.

I've read the books, but having them read to you helps with your imagination. Rick did a fantastic job in creating these caricatures. These books are my go to, to help kids with a reading disability, as a person with dyslexia and A.D.H.D. they help me with keeping my imagination in check and not running wild.

Love it!

I love the comedic energy that Rick Riordan brings, the story of Calypso and Leo is so sweet!
All the relationships are great though out the series

Too much romance

I really love the story line and plot buuuut… all the romance is getting on my nerves, I don’t mind a little because almost every story has some but in my opinion it takes up to much of the real fun!

If I could buy this book twice, I would.

Amazing performance and great story as expected of Rick Riordan. Was laughing, crying, and enjoying it to the very end
