Kyros' Secret

Thera, daughter of Ares, God of War, is being used as his pawn to start a war between the Trozens and the Centaur Race. When Kyros, second son of the deceased king, jumps in front of Ares' beam, he unknowingly volunteers to father Thera's child. Ares plan was to impregnate her with the seed of a centaur and send her to marry Kyros' evil brother, Pittheus, hence starting a war between the races. Thera is thrilled her father's plan is ruined, but Kyros does not share in her happiness. Cursed by Ares, he is man by day and centaur by night. He keeps his secret from Thera, knowing how much she hates centaurs, and not even sure of the race of the baby. But as their relationship develops, his secret which could destroy them all hangs heavy over his head. His heroic act brings them together, but his dark secret threatens to tear them apart, in Kyros' Secret.

Once thought to be the successor to The Oracle of Delphi, she bravely sits atop the throne over the pit of knowledge in trickery, to get an answer from the oracle herself. She is to be sacrificed to a sea serpent in order to save her village and the oracle tells her only the demi-god Perseus can slay the beast. When Perseus seeks out the oracle in order to find the abode of Medusa, the feisty Princess Andromeda tries to trick him to go on a quest of her own.
