The Chalice of the Gods

2023 | Children

The original heroes from The Lightning Thief are reunited for their biggest challenge yet: getting Percy to college when the gods are standing in his way. After saving the world multiple times, Percy Jackson is hoping to have a normal senior year. Unfortunately, the gods aren't quite done with him. Percy will have to fulfill three quests in order to get the necessary three letters of recommendation from Mount Olympus for college.

The first quest is to help Zeus's cup-bearer retrieve his goblet before it falls into the wrong hands. Can Percy, Grover, and Annabeth find it in time?

Readers new to Percy Jackson and fans who have been awaiting this reunion for more than a decade will delight equally in this latest hilarious take on Greek mythology.

THE TRIO IS BACK in this first new Percy adventure since THE BLOOD OF OLYMPUS was published in 2014. Percy, Annabeth, and Grover haven't been on a quest together since THE LIGHTNING THIEF.

MORE LAUGHS, DANGER, MONSTERS, AND GODS in a story told from Percy's point of view, in a return to the format of Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Fans have been asking for this for more than ten years.

PERCY AND ANNABETH ARE SENIORS! Fans who grew up on the series will love seeing their favorite characters in another stage of life, but readers need not have any prior knowledge of Percy Jackson or his previous adventures.

Percy Has an Extra College Entrance Requirement
Percy Jackson is now a senior in high school, but in order to get into college, he has a special requirement – letters of recommendation from three gods. And to get them, he has to go on quests, of course. The first comes from Ganymede who is missing the special goblet he uses to serve the gods. Can Percy find it before the next big feast?

It’s been years since I read any of the Percy Jackson books, so I wasn’t sure how easily I’d slip back into his world. I needn’t have worried. The book focuses on a smaller cast of characters, which made it easy, and I enjoyed spending time with them again. The story is episodic at times, but I was always engaged, dying to know what would happen next even if the stakes were a little smaller than in other books. I’d forgotten just how funny the books could be, and I was smiling and laughing throughout. Yet we also got some wonderful character moments that were very emotionally satisfying. I’m so glad I picked up this book, and other fans of Percy will be glad they picked it up, too.
