Somebody who is sentenced to the Darkness of Tartarus can always make amends for his mistakes and be moved to the Plain of Asphodel. “No soul was ‘condemned to…

The book that I read was The House of Hades. The author is Rick Riordan. It is the 4th book in the Heroes of Olympus series. But it starts off from where the Percy Jackson series ended, so it is technically the 9th book. This book or series is played off from Greek and Roman mythology.

flesh-eating Laestrygonians could truly not compare of what is to expect of Odysseus. The massive growls grew stronger and stronger as Odysseus was petrified at what he saw.

people who accomplished great things on earth. The second stage the Fields of Asphodel. This level of the underworld contained zombie-like souls.
