Pomůžou tentokrát zachránit svět bájní řečtí hrdinové? Druhý díl bestsellerové série vedle které bledne i Percy Jackson.
Dokážeš si představit, že by se u tebe v obýváku usadili olympští bohové, zabrali si tvůj oblíbený gauč a chtěli ti pomoct zachránit svět? Kdyby se to alespoň nezačalo komplikovat! Héra jim zakázala používat magické schopnosti, takže boj s Thanatem, démonem smrti a jeho matkou Nyx, je téměř marný. Vzdát to ale nesmějí. Nastal čas objevit nové hrdiny! Stanou se jimi Elliot a jeho kamarádka ze znamení zvěrokruhu Panna? Pomůžou jim bohové?
Olympané v současném světě internetu, mobilů, tabletů a komerce. Začátek bestsellerové série vedle které bledne i Percy Jackson.
Elliot Hooper si přeje jediné: klidný život pro sebe a svou nemocnou mámu. Když ale do jejich chlívku spadne jako blesk z čistého nebe divná holka se stříbrnými vlasy, která o sobě tvrdí, že je nesmrtelná a že je Panna – ano, jedno ze znamení zvěrokruhu osobně –, jeho touha po klidu je rozmetána na kusy podobně jako halda hnoje, na které dívka neobratně přistála. Panna má na zemi tajné poslání. Jeho nedílnou součástí je NAPROSTÝ ZÁKAZ komunikace se smrtelníky. Takže co si počít s Elliotem? Nejlepší asi bude, když ho na misi vezme s sebou. Jenže celkem„banální“ poslání se zvrtne a stane se z něj úkol takřka nesplnitelný. Klidně si troufněme říci NADLIDSKÝ. Panně a Elliotovi se totiž podaří vypustit na svobodu krále všech démonů Thanata, který byl dva tisíce let uvězněn pod kameny Stonehenge. Protože ho sami nedokážou zastavit, nezbude jim nic jiného než vyhledat pomoc Dia a dalších olympských bohů. Ti si však užívají zasloužený důchod a vůbec nemají radost z toho, že je někdo tahá do služby…
