Cronus Chronicles series.
Charlotte battled Greek gods in The Shadow Thieves. Now Poseidon wants revenge, and an ill-timed cruise plunges her back into the struggles of mortals against gods. With irreverent narration, this story mixes the wry with the dramatic, winding up to a pitched battle at sea. Close beneath the surface of Charlotte's sulky exterior is a brave and resolute hero.
