In a world where nothing is as it seems Jennifer Estep takes
you on a fascinating adventure in her new young adult novel,
SPARTAN HEART. The first book in this urban fantasy book series
that is a spin-off of her original Mythos Academy Series.
SPARTAN HEART can easily be read a standalone but once you step
into this intriguing world you will want to go back and read
the Mythos Academy Series. Estep has really outdone herself in
creating a world that is filled with countless types of
warriors from Spartan.
This series is a mix of The Clash of the
Titans and 300, but with a young adult theme making for an
interesting combination that is just to capture your interest
from the first page.
The characters are well rounded and very developed with
captivating backstories that help to create life like
characters that are realistic. Some characters are loved while
others are complete outcasts. The setting is unlike any other
as Estep writes a vividly descriptive picture making it easy to
close your eyes and see exactly what the characters are seeing
making it the ideal backdrop for a story that is sure to pull
you in.
SPARTAN HEART is a heart pounding and thought provoking
read that will have you impatiently turning pages trying to
figure out what will happen next. A book that was hard to put
down, but easy to get lost in. I enjoyed reading this young
adult novel that has all the makings of a great read. A story
that is both relatable, yet untouchable with action and drama
around every corner. If you are looking for a world that is
easy to escape to with action and adventure, then SPARTAN HEART
is the novel for you.
New school year, same old problems . . .
At Mythos Academy, everyone knows exactly who I am: Rory
Forseti, Spartan girl and the daughter of Reapers.
Even though I fought alongside my cousin Gwen Frost to
save the mythological world from Loki and his evil Reapers
of Chaos, I’m still the most hated girl at the academy
because of all the horrible things my parents did. I had
hoped that this school year would be different, but the
other kids just won’t let me forget about my parents.
But something strange is going on at the Colorado academy.
First, I run into a Viking guy who dislikes me more than
most. Then I notice some odd artifacts in the Library of
Antiquities. And worst of all, I start hearing rumors
about a new group of Reapers who can summon mythological
monsters.
I might be the most hated girl at Mythos Academy, but I’m
also the only one who can save it . . .
