She was beautiful in combat. I know that’s a crazy thing to say, especially after we’d just climbed a sewage waterfall, but her gray eyes sparkled when she was fighting for her life. Her face shone like a goddess’s, and believe me, I’ve seen goddesses. The way her Camp Half-Blood beads rested against her throat—Okay, sorry. Got a little distracted.

Stacy Schiff is that rare combination: a first-rate historian and a brilliant storyteller. Using a wide range of sources, she spins straw into gold, conjuring the world of Ptolemaic Egypt in full vibrant color, and returning the voice of one of the most powerful, fascinating, and maligned women in history. Cleopatra is impossible to put down.

Oh my god, I am so awesome! Leo bellowed. So awesome! Echo yelled back. He is funny, a nymph ventured. And cute, in a scrawny way, another said. Scrawny? Leo asked. Baby I invented scrawny. Scrawny is the new sizzling hot.

Remake the world, a little at a time, each in your own corner of the world.

Jason muttered And I saw something...Really terrible. That was Hera, Thalia grumbled, Her Majesty, the Loose Cannon. That's it, Thalia Grace, Said the goddess. I will turn you into and aardvark, so help me- Stop it, you two, Piper said. Amazingly, they both shut up.

Don't die on me, she ordered. You are not dying on me. Yes, ma'am. He felt light-headed, but she was about the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen. Her hair was smoldering. Her face was smudged with soot. She had a cut on her arm, her dress was torn, and she was missing a boot. Beautiful.
