942:"Though the Greek and Roman crew members of the Argo II have made progress in their many quests, they still seem no closer to defeating the earth mother, Gaea. Her giants have risen—all of them, and they’re stronger than ever. They must be stopped before the Feast of Spes, when Gaea plans to have two demigods sacrificed in Athens. She needs their blood—the blood of Olympus—in order to wake. The demigods are having more frequent visions of a terrible battle at Camp Half-Blood. The Roman legion from Camp Jupiter, led by Octavian, is almost within striking distance. 261: 251: 230: 375: 563: 545: 84: 53: 94: 198: 174: 22: 613: 1042:, first U.S. edition hardcover, printed by Disney/Hyperion. It says "Gaea" on the inside dustjacket flap—"Gaea, the bloodthirsty Earth Mother" starts the last sentence of the first paragraph—and also throughout the book. It's first seen on page 5 (the second-to-last line of the page starts "of Gaea, Hazel's least favorite goddess"). 945:
Though it is tempting to take the Athena Parthenos to Athens to use as a secret weapon, the friends know that the huge statue belongs back on Long Island, where it might be able to stop a war between the two camps. The Athena Parthenos will go west; the Argo II will go east. The gods, still suffering

Actually, it turns out I don't need to fix the main articles for the first four novels in the series. They universally use "Gaea"; there's not a "Gaia" in sight. I'm going to restore my recent edits to this article to use "Gaea", since the only place "Gaia" has been used, mistakenly, is here. I'll

1051:
Do you have an edition that uses "Gaia"? If it isn't the U.S. edition, then the U.S. edition holds sway because it is the original one; spellings in other countries are considered secondary. And if you're relying on the Knowledge (XXG) articles for the "Gaia" spelling, that isn't a

One of the lines about the Son of Neptune says, "Rick Riordan has stated in his blog that Jason will die trying to save another person in The Son of Neptune." As far as I could tell, this wasn't on his blog. If this is true, could somebody add the link as a reference?

979:(and that doesn't disagree with anything in summary), though the bit about it being "tempting to take the Athena Parenthos to Athens" is old news; this happened in the previous book, so it certainly doesn't belong in a summary here. 999:
Regardless of Knowledge (XXG)'s preferred spelling for the mythological earth goddess, Riordan uses the "Gaea" spelling in the series here in the U.S. The actual books only use that spelling; I'm looking at my copy of

The only place that I have seen Gaea is on the Blood of Olympus Synopsis and possibly if I remember correct, Lost Hero and Son of Neptune, in both the House of Hades and Mark of Athena, Gaia is used. --

The 4th book says "House of Hades". How in the world do people know about the name already even before the book came out? Did Rick announce it at an event that he is doing for the Mark of Athena Tour?
