The Cosmic Games are fast approaching, and eight champions are about to compete for a magical golden apple and a lifetime of glory. It\u2019s the event of a generation! But behind the scenes tensions within Olympus Inc. are running high as they struggle to hide signs of a rebellion, and the fact that a mysterious figure is trying to sabotage the Games. Who are they, and what do they want?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>In Oxford, Peregrine is desperate to return to the Cosmic Realm but her mum is not keen. Surely, Peregrine\u2019s life is adventurous enough? The decision is taken out of Penelope\u2019s hands when Peregrine receives a letter from Athene herself, asking for Peregrine to compete in the Cosmic Games. How can Peregrine possibly compete against the other Academy-trained champions? Especially when someone is making it very clear that she should not be allowed to win . . .<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just like book 1 we are back in the magical realm, full of magical creatures, races, everything.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But she is also working undercover and that\u2019s where the fun begins.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have returning baddies, returning goodies and even new friends and foes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Overall this is a fabulous read full of Greek mythology \u2013 which I\u2019m starting to love.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now I need to wait for book 3.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"wordads-inline-marker\" style=\"display: none;\"\/>\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lockett &amp; Wilde: The Ghosts of London Written by\u00a0Lucy Strange Illustrations by Pam Smy Published by Walker Books Book one of this series was great and book 2 promised to be just as good.
