Je me suis déjà fait des ennemis, dans la vie, mais jamais aussi puissants ni malveillants que la déesse de l'amour. La malédiction d'Aphrodite a transformé Arès, l'homme dont je commençais à tomber amoureuse, en bête sauvage assoiffée de sang qui n'a plus qu'une idée en tête, me voler toute ma magie. Le pire, c'est qu'il nous reste encore une Épreuve à réaliser afin de sauver mon ami des griffes d'un terrifiant démon des Enfers.

Pour sauver mon seul ami, je dois remporter les trois épreuves prévues par les Seigneurs de guerre : Douleur, Panique et Terreur. Et pour ça, je dois coopérer avec le connard le plus arrogant, le plus obstiné et le moins fiable de l'Olympe. Non seulement Arès refuse de m'apprendre à utiliser mes pouvoirs, mais il ne cesse d'essayer de me les voler. Et il a franchi une limite qui devrait être impardonnable.

Find Lucifer’s stolen Book of Sins, recover the lost powers of Pride and Envy, then lift the curse preventing us from being together. That was supposed to be the plan. But now… Hearing my mom’s voice has sent me into a tailspin. Add in a mad dash to Rome, a jealous angel and an intervention by a god, and I am officially in trouble. Somehow, I find myself rallying an angry pixie, a geeky vampire, an ancient chauffeur and a sex-obsessed pensioner into a rescue mission I could never have dreamed up. We have to head into hell, to rescue the devil himself. 

One thing I did not expect when spending the night with the devil, was waking up the next day with wings on my back. But then, I also didn’t expect to be caught up in a second murder - this time of somebody I actually know, or to be attacked by creatures from hell, and to find out my parents were keeping an epic secret from me. All this might be tolerable, if I only could fall into Nox’s arms and let him take me to that place that only he can. 

In order to save my only friend’s life, I am being forced to complete three Trials set by the Lords of War; Pain, Panic, and Terror. And I have to work with the most arrogant, stubborn, untrustworthy jerk in Olympus to do so. Ares not only won’t teach me how to use my powers, he also keeps trying to steal them. And he's crossed a line that should be unforgivable.

What if Hercules wasn’t the hero we all thought he was? His daughter Lyssa knows just how cruel he can be. But she has left that life behind, and now, her battered smugglers ship, the Alastor, flies under everyone’s radar - just how she likes it. The gods have a different plan for her, though. 

Nothing has gone to plan. Not a single thing. I entered Poseidon’s palace with one intention—steal a legendary ship and sail it to the darkest, most dangerous depths of the ocean, to try to save my sister. And now I am fighting for my life in a series of deadly trials designed for water gods and sea monsters, not broken, powerless nymphs. I was prepared for risk. I was prepared for danger. I was not prepared for Poseidon, or the soul-deep connection I have with him.

I’m supposed to be the last of my kind, all-powerful, and marked by prophecy for greatness. But, something, somewhere, must have gone wrong, because I have no power or greatness. The prophecy must be about my sister, the only other living being with our kind's blood in her veins, but she's been in a magical sleep for eight years and is slowly turning to stone. I will do anything to save her, but the answers I need are inside Poseidon’s underwater palace. The fiercely powerful ocean god rules his realm with brutal efficiency, and nobody is ever allowed to get close to him.

With just three Trials left, there's still every chance that the most dangerous man in Olympus is going to win the Immortality Trials. If the heroes can survive the fall out from Hercules's actions on Aries, then the last Trials are to be held in the realms of the big three gods; Poseidon, Zeus, and Hades, and that means the crews will have to face their toughest challenges yet. 

So, it turns out Titan power is pretty awesome. Only I can’t control my new gift and that’s not only embarrassing but also dangerous. And I’m sure our new professor is one of the two demons I accidentally let loose in Olympus. Icarus says we should lay low for a while but every time Professor Neos flashed me those red eyes I want to challenge him. And when students start collapsing to the ground with their souls stolen, I don’t have a choice but to act.

We have to follow a series of clues across some of the most dangerous parts of Olympus, to try and free a Titan trapped by the Lord of the Olympians himself. And even more confusing, my absent mom has finally decided to show up. It's not going to be easy, but it's the only way we can save the souls that were stolen by the demon that I let loose. My mistake cost innocent people their souls. And now I'm the only one who can fix it. 

Lyssa’s feelings for her new deckhand may be even harder to control with a visit to the island of the goddess of love...but he has one last thing to tell her, a secret that may change how she sees him for good. Hedone and Hercules have decisions to make, decisions that may force Evadne to act. Will Eryx be there to help her? Or will his loyalty to his captain and his crew win out? In the next bout of Trials, our heroes will face some of the most vicious creatures they’ve seen so far, deadly riddles, a demigod to rival them all.

After risking their lives completing the Trials set by Hera, Athena, and Artemis, Lyssa and the crew of the Alastor now need to face the twisted imaginations of three more gods and hope they can prevail. With nine Trials still to go any of the four crews are still in with a chance of winning the most coveted thing in Olympus - immortality. And some of them will do absolutely anything for an infinite life.

What if Hercules wasn’t the hero everyone thought he was? His daughter, Lyssa, knows just how cruel he can be. But she has left that life behind, and now her battered smugglers ship, the Alastor, flies under everyone’s radar - just how she likes it. The Gods have a different plan for her though. They’re about to break one of their only rules and grant a worthy hero a chance to win the ultimate prize - immortality. And Lyssa and Hercules are two of the lucky heroes offered the chance to compete. Twelve gods, 12 realms, 12 trials.

J'ai été enlevée par Zeus. Arrachée aux rues de Manhattan et terrorisée par un foutu dieu de l'Olympe. Et maintenant, je suis coincée dans les Enfers, forcée à concourir dans une série d'épreuves mortelles pour décrocher le titre de Reine des Enfers. Ce qui reviendrait à épouser Hadès, le terrifiant Seigneur des Trépassés. Déjà, qui veut d'un mari ? Alors, je ne vous parle même pas d'un mari composé de fumée et enveloppé de mort ! Je dois rentrer chez moi, à New York et auprès de mon frère.

Je suis prise au piège de l'enfer. Ici, tout ou presque essaie de me tuer. Même le dieu qui prétend m'avoir aimée est à un cheveu de mettre un terme à ma vie. Mais tout est sur le point de changer. J'en ai par-dessus la tête d'être Perséphone, une simple outsider dans les Épreuves d'Hadès. J'ai essayé de faire appel à la déesse en moi, et maintenant que j'ai du pouvoir, je n'ai pas peur de m'en servir. Même si j'ignore totalement comment m'y prendre.

Le dieu grec des Enfers a mis ma vie sens dessus dessous, me poussant à remettre en cause tout ce que je croyais savoir sur mon existence. Et maintenant, je ne sais même plus qui je suis. Une guerre fait rage en moi, alors que j'essaie de tempérer mon besoin sans cesse croissant de magie en me rappelant les dégâts que cause le pouvoir sur l'Olympe. Les dégâts qu'il m'a causés par le passé. La seule chose que je sais, cependant, c'est que mes sentiments pour Hadès sont bien réels.

I've been kidnapped by Zeus. Plucked from the streets of Manhattan and frightened half to death by a freaking Olympian god. And now I'm trapped in the Underworld, being forced to compete in a series of deadly trials for the position of Queen of the Underworld. Which would mean marrying Hades, the utterly terrifying Lord of the Dead. Who the hell wants a husband at all, let alone one made of smoke and riddled with death?  

I’m trapped in actual hell. And just about everything here is trying to kill me. Even the god who claims he once loved me has come pretty close to ending my life. But things are about to change. I’m fed up of being Persephone - human underdog in the Hades Trials. I’ve managed to awaken a little bit of the goddess inside me, and now I have power, I’m not afraid to use it. Although I don’t actually have a clue how to.

Sound interesting? The author thinks so too! Listen to Court of Greed and Gold and experience the second book in the Shadow Bound Queen series.
