Book description
From war-torn Olympus to stormy New York City, mythology and reality
collide in a breathtaking adventure. When Pegasus, the majestic
winged-stallion, crashes on to her roof in the middle of a storm that
blacks-out New York City, 13-year-old Emily's life becomes that of
legend: epic battles with gruesome monsters, desperate chases from a
corrupt governmental agency, captivating flights astride the beautiful
winged-stallion, and one heroic quest to save Olympus before the Olympic
flame burns out ... A must for fans of Percy Jackson! Kate O`Hearn was
raised in the heart of New York City. Throughout her life, she has
always had an active and vivid imagination. As a child walking down 5th
Avenue, she would envision herself soaring among the city`s canyons on
the back of a wild dragon. While in Florida, looking over the sea, she
could imagine living amongst the whales and beaching in the heavy
swells. At night, a star studded sky was yet another playground. These
dreams and ideas never faded. Instead they grew until they spilled over
into the books she loves to write. Kate`s first book, Shadow of the
Dragon: Kira, won the 1066 Schools` Book Award.
