The Court of the Dead

A Nico di Angelo Adventure

New York Times #1 best-selling authors Rick Riordan and Mark Oshiro collaborate again on a new adventure in which Nico di Angelo teams up with his half-sister Hazel Levesque to protect . . . monsters?

Nico di Angelo is feeling antsy. It’s been almost three months since he and his boyfriend, Will Solace, returned to Camp Half-Blood from their journey to Tartarus, and there hasn’t been a demigod quest or a conflict with monsters in all that time. So, when Nico's half-sister, Hazel Levesque, asks him and Will to join her at Camp Jupiter on the West Coast, he shadow-jumps at the chance to get away and do something. In her Iris-message, Hazel had said that she needed the boys’ help with an “issue” with some “new guests.” What she didn’t say was that she’s providing a haven for a group of monsters who escaped the Underworld!

Apparently, the self-proclaimed “mythics” learned from Nico and Will themselves that they have options and don’t have to be evil. But their integration into the Roman demigod camp isn’t exactly going smoothly. As Nico and Will endeavor to build bridges between the refugees and the demigod campers, the mythics start disappearing from camp, one by one. A mysterious dark force is at work, and its plan is to punish all monsters for their past crimes. Things only get worse when Hazel learns that she is closely connected to that force . . .

In this brilliantly inventive and laugh-filled adventure, the best-selling team of Rick Riordan and Mark Oshiro manipulate the Mist to make listeners see things in a whole new light.

Them coco puffs

Riordan created this whole story so he could write about the coco puffs. Getting the wine dude all emotional was a nice touch.

Love

Towards the end with Nico and Will were like suggesting hinting that they might become the new camp counselors. I honestly thought that would be Percy and Annabeth’s role.

Showing the more human side of the gods and their children and how everything has feelings

This book was so good I love that fact that he bring in real mental problems and makes characters out of them and shows how Nico and all the others deal with it every day but overcome it in the end because that is what is like to be a human being

A good story telling mixed with a good laugh!

Love the characters! But wish they would refer to Will as Will and not continually call him my boyfriend! He does have a name!
