Coming of age romance. Unique Greek Fantasy Adventure. A determined FMC who refuses to let the gods dictate her life or her love. When Phoibe, a demigod daughter of Hera, refuses Apollo's advances, the god exacts a terrible revenge. Thus begins the monstrous curse meant to last an eternity—or until Apollo gets what he wants. But as the curse is passed from mother to daughter, each woman refuses to bend to the manipulative sun god. Even after Ancient Greece—and the worship of the gods—fade into history, Apollo's curse remains. Even when the demigods begin to viciously purge the land of monsters. Even when Hades strikes against the demigods, and mankind believes the gods are nothing more than myths. Teenage Hope Crawford didn't really mind Apollo's shape-shifting, flying, supernatural strength were hardly travesties. But when her mother is slain by the god himself, Hope realizes her safety will never exist—unless she fights to create it. Hope's adventures range from hiding in a small town to sneaking through a demigod conservatory, searching for clues of her past, and finding love and allies in the most unlikely places. Her adventures continue when she and her friends descend into the depths of the Underworld and then all the way up to Mount Olympus where the gods reside. Hope is determined to find every scrap of hidden knowledge, beg, borrow, or steal any secret weapon that will give her an edge, uncover every twisted truth, until she has enough power to square off against the Olympians and win her freedom. Because Hope will create her own fate . . . or die trying. This boxed set includes two complete series. Phaidra's story blends lore of the sphinx, historical figures, and tragic Greek mythology. Fans of Greek mythology like Madeline Miller's Circe or Emily R. King's Wings of Fury will love the ancient Greek setting with myths woven into history. The original Sphinx series blends mythology, adventure, and young adult romance. Hope's story is the perfect mash up for fans of Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, and Twilight.
