The Chalice of the Gods (B&N Exclusive Edition) (Percy Jackson and the Olympians)

by Rick Riordan

Overview

Notes From Your Bookseller

Perfect for Percy Jackson fans old and new, The Chalice of the Gods is an adventure of epic proportions filled with plenty of laugh-out-loud moments from Percy, Annabeth and Grover as they work together to help Percy with his biggest quest yet — getting into college.

This Barnes & Noble Exclusive Edition includes college recommendation letters from the gods (that aren't very helpful).

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.

TIMED TO COINCIDE WITH DISNEY+ SERIES based on THE LIGHTNING THIEF, tentatively scheduled for 2024, but the book stands on its own without the show.
