Skylar, Mason, and the other descendants embark a deadly quest
to the
underworld to confront the evil Hades, who has been plotting to kill off
the
descendants of all the gods. On this journey, they soon discover that
the ancient
gods are not dead as once believed but are held captive in a secret
location. In
order to save the world from destruction at the hands of
Hephaestus,
the descendants must set out on a crusade to rescue the
gods. In
the process, Skylar learns more about her bloodline and her
powers, but
there is also a heavy price to pay. The darkest forces known to man
are about to
return to reclaim their stolen
kingdom.
Seeing nothing but darkness through door one heightened my
awareness,
and the mist that slowly crept out like thin layer of clouds,
spreading
and covering our feet, brought another level of fright. The ground
started to
shake, then a sound like thunder boomed, getting louder…louder…until
it sounded
more like a stampede.
My imagination got the best of me as I
envision
buffaloes charging for us. Roaring sounds burst in the air when a
dozen of the
Cerberuses tried to charge through at once. I would have preferred
the
buffaloes, but instead, we got Hades’s guard
dogs.
Their glowing red eyes were what I saw
first, then
their vampire like teeth, and last three heads to a body. With
serpent’s
heads on the tips of their tales and lion like claws, they looked
like they
could rip us to shreds as they dashed for us as if we were a gourmet
meal.
“Cerberus. I should have guessed.” Zara
quaked,
standing next to Tara. Extending both of their arms up, they were
creating a
shied. Blazing light engulfed
us.
“You should have guessed sooner, but I
don’t think
it would have mattered.” Nick’s eyes glowed, ready to fight. “Here
puppy,
puppy. Let’s play.”

chance. It
was a way to grieve the death of her beloved grandmother, and
inspired by
a dream she once had as a young girl. When she started reading new
adult
novels, she fell in love with the genre. It was the reason she had to
write
one-Something Great. Why the pen name, M Clarke? She tours with Magic
