Pegasus series.
The Titans clash with both Olympian and Hawaiian gods, while Emily solves the mystery of her link with her new foe, the Flame of Titus. A more character-driven plot sets this volume apart from the rest, with just enough action to keep things moving. Familiar themes of sacrifice and rebirth, plus a dash of romance, culminate in an epic conclusion to the series.

Ancient myth and the modern world are brought together when thirteen-year-old Emily (The Flame of Olympus) attempts to save the home of the gods, under attack by vicious new enemies. Continuing themes of friendship, loyalty, and sacrifice flesh out the plot while the action propels this second series installment forward. Fans of Rick Riordan may enjoy this fantasy outing.
