A Nico di Angelo Adventure

Demigods Nico di Angelo and Will Solace must endure the terrors of Tartarus to rescue an old friend in this thrilling adventure co-written by New York Times #1 best-selling author Rick Riordan and award-winning author Mark Oshiro. Percy Jackson fans, rejoice! Nico and Will have a book of their own! 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. He thinks he knows who it is: a reformed Titan named Bob whom Percy and Annabeth had to leave behind when they escaped Hades's realm. Nico's dreams and Rachel Dare's latest prophecy leave little doubt in Nico's mind that Bob is in some kind of trouble. Nico has to go on this quest, whether Mr. D and Chiron like it or not. And of course Will insists on coming with. But can a being made of light survive in the darkest part of the world? and what does the prophecy mean that Nico will have to "leave something of equal value behind?" Nico will have to face demons both internal and external as his relationship with Will is tested to the core in this standalone adventure featuring two of the most popular characters in the Percy Jackson saga. Complete your Nico di Angelo collection with these series by Rick Riordan: Percy Jackson and the Olympians The Heroes of Olympus The Trials of Apollo

Reviews-
  • AudioFile Magazine Narrator A.J. Beckles is keenly attuned to the characters he portrays in this compelling adventure set in the world of Percy Jackson. A prophecy and disturbing dreams send demigod boyfriends Nico di Angelo and Will Solace on a quest into the Underworld. As the son of Hades, Nico finds the Underworld more familiar than frightening, but Will, the son of Apollo, suffers without sunlight. Beckles deftly shifts between danger-filled action and humorous moments, and he adds poignancy to the dreamlike interludes in which Nico and Will share the story of their unfolding romance with the nymph Gorgyra. Will and Nico can only survive if they fully accept each other for who they are, and many young listeners will appreciate that their relationship is so central to the story.
