Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Chalice of the Gods: (A BRAND NEW PERCY JACKSON ADVENTURE) (Percy Jackson and The Olympians, 6)

Product Information

First quest: the cupbearer of the gods, Ganymede, is missing his chalice. Not only is this embarrassing. It’s also a potential disaster, since any mortal who happens to drink from the cup will gain immortality. Percy, Annabeth and Grover have to find that chalice and return it to Ganymede before anyone realizes he lost it. These gods . . . they really need GPS tags on their magic items, don’t they? That’s because the flow may feel disrupted with the short stories that are scattered throughout the timeline. As well, since Riordan was writing multiple series over the span of many years, there is overlap throughout the universe with events taking place at the same time. Some of the short stories are also hard to place within the timeline, because trying to line up seasons, ages, and events within the overall timeline with the main books can be challenging. The half-bloods have been preparing for battle against the Titans all year, even though they know their chances of victory are grim. Meanwhile, the Olympians are struggling to contain the monster Typhon and Kronos has begun to advance on New York City. Ho letto anche libri successivi, ma non sono più riuscita a sentirmi vicina a quella narrazione in prima persona piena di battute di dubbio gusto (che io amo) e di riferimenti diretti al lettore. La sera in cui, piena di dubbi, ho iniziato "Il calice degli dei" mi sono sentita trascinare indietro di 14 anni, su quel traghetto diretto in Grecia dove avevo aperto la prima pagina del primo libro di Riordan.

Finalmente avevo trovato una saga da attendere e divorare, ogni anno aspettavo con ansia l'uscita dei nuovi capitoli della saga. Before you have the chalice, it is recommended to collect 10 Conjured Cocoas ahead of time, to make it easier to obtain the Sweet Chalice. Let's not forget that the reason Percy wants to get into New Rome University is because he loves Annabeth and wants to go to college with her. This man is willing to be trolled by the gods over and over just to be with her. (No wonder middle school me made such high standards.) This part had me actually screaming: Nonostante non sia un libro carico di colpi di scena e con una trama complessa, penso sia un regalo che l’autore ha voluto fare a noi ex preadolescenti cresciuti insieme a Percy. È un modo di chiudere la storia esattamente come la aperta, parlando a dei ragazzini confusi tramite la storia di un ragazzino confuso. Oggi Percy ha 30 e io ne ho quasi 27, se potessi parlargli gli direi semplicemente: ce l’abbiamo fatta.

This book is dedicated to Walker Scobell, Aryan Simhadri, and Leah Sava Jeffries, the stars of the Disney+ series. I will be doing a brief North American tour for the book in the fall, as I have done in the past (pre-Covid). Unfortunately, I don’t have the time or bandwidth to do an international tour. My apologies to my global readers! Hopefully we will be able to offer some of the US events on line if you want to join us from abroad. As soon as I have details on the tour, I will post them on my blog. Are you kidding?” He grinned at Annabeth. “A chance to do quests, just the three of us? Like old times? The Three Musketeers!” The novel is set between The Heroes of Olympus and The Trials of Apollo, during Percy’s senior year.

Percy doesn't need anyone else to point that out for him, he knew it when the Gods gifted him immortality and he said no. But this book was a nice reminder that no matter what he does in his life, no matter how many monsters he must fight, the goal will always be to keep going with Annabeth and Grover. How sweet is that? In The Lightning Thief, Percy bitterly thinks that his father should be able to just make a phone appear to call him. In this book, Poseidon does in fact call Percy on a mortal landline and Percy suspects that Poseidon plugged his phone straight into the undersea transatlantic cable which gives Poseidon very good reception. Despite being a minor god, Ganymede appears to be unaffected as well, but Percy had also intentionally revealed his presence to the god, possibly negating the cap's effects despite Percy still wearing it. Percy hopes that he doesn't have a Frodo moment where he gets to the threshold of Mount Brunch with his magic item and then, instead of handing it over, becomes visible, yells "haha! The cup is mine!" and drinks the immortality-flavored Kool-Aid. Can Percy and his friends Annabeth and Grover find the chalice before it falls into the wrong hands? And even if they do, will they be able to resist its awesome power. . .?

Retailers:

It is not recommended to get the God's Chalice from a public server as someone else might already have gotten it, and if you do, there's a high chance a bounty hunter might kill you, but if you end up with a Chalice, then wait in the Safe Zone until all Aura Colors are inserted. Short answer: To celebrate the upcoming Percy TV show! Disney Publishing asked me what kind of tie-in books we could market for the show, and Chalice of the Gods was my idea as a ‘thank you’ to fans who have waited so long for a great adaptation. If you are one of the many readers who have asked me over the years for a new Percy/Annabeth/Grover adventure, this is for you!

He's never really been given a break to be a kid. Being a half blood doesn't allow you the luxury. I'm almost thankful for it after reading this book simply because he learned so much faster than anyone else that growing up is the most important thing you can do in your life. Loving people, getting to live life beside them, that's the point. It's revealed that the humidifier and lamp setup that Nico and Will used in The Sun and the Star: A Nico di Angelo Adventure to communicate with Percy and Annabeth via Iris Message was created by Percy to talk with Annabeth before bed every night. Annabeth had a similar setup in her own room. The novel unfolds during Percy’s senior year at Alternative High School in New York — after the action of The Heroes of Olympus, but before The Trials of Apollo. This time around, Percy is not worried about saving the world. He has a much harder quest: getting into college. New Rome University requires recommendation letters from three gods, which means . . . yep, you guessed it. Percy has to run quests to get the letters. (That sound you hear is Percy screaming into his pillow in frustration.) You know you’ve been a demigod too long when you’re flushed out of your school straight into the Atlantic Ocean and you’re not even surprised.” Chalice is meant to be a standalone for now. It was originally one of three ideas I had for Percy’s senior year adventures, so it’s possible I could write the other two at some point in the future. That really depends on what my schedule ends up looking like in the next few years. As you probably know, the film and TV adaptations have been consuming a great deal of my time over the last two years.For example, if you go in a VIP server and wait 4 hours without someone collecting all Chests, One random 4 hour old chest will have the God's Chalice. The first task is to help Ganymede, Zeus’s cupbearer, retrieve his golden goblet before it falls into the wrong hands. You see, one sip from it can turn a mortal into a god, and Zeus would not be pleased with that result. Can Percy and his friends Grover and Annabeth find the precious cup in time? And if they do, will they be able to resist its special power?
