1) While the book is called The House of Hades, Nico is not one of the seven and will most likely not get a narration.

2) While Percy did tell Nico to take the others to the Doors of Death on the mortal side, that doesn't make him the leader. I mean almost any adventure group needs a guide, but that doesn't make the guide the leader.
