From New York Times #1 best-selling author Rick Riordan and award-winning author Mark Oshiro comes a new standalone adventure featuring two of the most popular characters from the world of Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
ONE PROPHECY. TWO DEMIGODS. A HEROIC QUEST.
Nico di Angelo is pretty familiar with the realms of death, being the son of Hades and all. So when a desperate voice starts plaguing his dreams, Nico is convinced it's coming from the Underworld and belongs to an old friend - a reformed Titan called Bob. Then an ominous prophecy leaves Nico in no doubt - Bob needs his help and Nico must rescue him.
Of course Nico's boyfriend, Will Solace, the son of Apollo (the god of light) insists on joining the quest too. But can will even survive in the darkest part of the world? And what does the prophecy mean when it says that Nico will have to leave something of equal value behind?
As Nico faces demons both internal and external, his relationship with Will is tested to its very core. Can love find its way, even through the depths of hell?
Return to the World of Percy Jackson in the best-selling, brand-new adventure featuring the original hero in Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Chalice of the Gods - out now!
And don't miss the trio's next adventure in Percy Jackson and the Olympians: Wrath of the Triple Goddess, coming soon!

Buch (gebunden)
Licht und Dunkelheit. Himmel und Unterwelt. Will und Nico!
Als Sohn des Hades hat Nico di Angelo schon viele Verluste erlitten. Zum Glück gibt es einen Lichtstrahl in seinem Leben: seinen Freund Will, Sohn des Apollo. Zusammen sind die beiden unschlagbar. Bis jetzt, denn Nico wird immer wieder aus den Tiefen des Tartarus um Hilfe angerufen. Es ist die Stimme des Titanen Bob, den Percy einst allein dort zurücklassen musste. Nico muss zu ihm - und natürlich besteht Will darauf, mitzukommen. Aber kann Will als Wesen des Lichtes im dunkelsten Teil der Welt überhaupt überleben? Und was bedeutet die Prophezeiung, dass Nico dort unten »etwas Gleichwertiges zurücklassen« muss? Als Nico sowohl inneren als auch äußeren Dämonen gegenübersteht, wird seine Beziehung zu Will auf eine harte Probe gestellt.
Für diese Nebengeschichte aus der Percy-Jackson-Welt hat sich Rick Riordan mit dem preisgekrönten Autor und queeren Aktivisten Mark Oshiro zusammengetan. Gemeinsam haben sie einen Roman geschaffen, der darüber erzählt, wie wichtig es ist, für sich selbst einzustehen.
