Gea, la madre Tierra, está despertando a un ejército de monstruos para acabar con la humanidad..., y ellos se entretienen mareando a los semidioses, los únicos que pueden derrotar sus perversos planes. Ahora han mandado a Percy al campamento Júpiter casi sin recuerdos y con la inquietante sensación de que él, el griego, es el enemigo. Por suerte, contará con el apoyo de Hazel, una chica nacida hace más de ochenta años, y de Frank, un muchacho que todavía no sabe muy bien cuáles son sus poderes (ni si los tiene).

Los únicos que pueden cerrarlas son Percy, Jason, Piper, Hazel, Frank, Leo y Annabeth, el equipo de semidioses griegos y romanos elegido por una antigua profecía.

Desde hace tres gloriosas semanas, Percy ha podido ser un estudiante de instituto normal: no ha tenido que hacerle favores a ningún dios ni matar a ningún monstruo. Pero, para variar, esta tranquilidad no dura demasiado: cuando la diosa Hécate aparece sin avisar en el despacho de su orientadora escolar, Percy sabe que le espera una nueva misión, y también que no será fácil…

Apophis, il serpente del Caos, minaccia di sprofondare il mondo intero nella tenebra eterna. Carter e Sadie Kane si trovano ad affrontare un compito impossibile: distruggerlo una volta per tutte. Da soli, perché i maghi della Casa della Vita sono impegnati in una terribile guerra intestina e nessuno degli dei può aiutarli a combattere contro le forze del Caos. L'unica speranza è un antico incantesimo che potrebbe trasformare la stessa ombra del serpente in una potente arma contro di lui, ma la formula è andata persa da oltre un millennio.

Ever since the gods of ancient Egypt were unleashed in the modern world, Carter Kane and his sister, Sadie, have been in trouble. As descendants of the House of Life, the Kanes have some powers at their command, but the devious gods haven't given them time to master their skills. And now their most threatening enemy yet—the Chaos snake, Apophis—is rising. If they don't prevent him from breaking free in a few days' time, the world will end. In other words, it's a typical week for the Kane family.

Dopo la morte dei genitori, l'accademia e suo fratello Dev sono l'unica famiglia che le rimane.

Percy Jackson si è risvegliato alla Casa del Lupo, nel Campo dei semidei romani, senza alcun ricordo a parte il nome di Annabeth. Proprio mentre sta andando a salvarlo, la ragazza scopre che tra greci e romani sta per scatenarsi la guerra e, a bordo della nave volante Argo II, cerca di raggiungere il Campo Giove insieme a Jason e Piper.

Annabeth e Percy sono precipitati in un baratro profondissimo, tanto da ritrovarsi nelle viscere del Tartaro. I semidei non hanno un istante da perdere: Jason, Leo, Piper, Frank, Hazel e Nico dovranno trovare al più presto la Casa di Ade e sigillare le Porte della Morte, imprigionando le creature infernali che premono per oltrepassarle. Solo così potranno liberare i due eroi e impedire il ritorno di Gea, la dea della terra, che vuole distruggere il mondo con le sue armate di giganti.

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.”

As the son of Hades, Nico di Angelo has been through so much, from the premature deaths of his mother and sister, to being outed against his will, to losing his friend Jason during the trials of Apollo. But there is a ray of sunshine in his life—literally: his boyfriend, Will Solace, the son of Apollo. Together the two demigods can overcome any obstacle or foe. At least, that's been the case so far . . . Now Nico is being plagued by a voice calling out to him from Tartarus, the lowest part of the Underworld.
