Phoebe's new stepsister is a bit on the evil harpy side. Seems like she lives to make Pheobe's life difficult. But is that all there is to Stella? Of course not. (After all, every villain is the hero of her own story.)
From Goodreads:
Phoebe is getting ready for her first Valentine's Day date with Griffin (with a little help from Nicole) and things never go quite smoothly with hematheos magic is involved.
From Goodreads:
Nicole had been in trouble before, but she didn't think she'd ever seen Headmaster Petrolas quite so apoplectic.
From Goodreads:
Phoebe, who recently discovered she's a descendant of Nike (the goddess, not the shoe), is finding that supernatural powers come with a crazy learning curve. Her stepfather, headmaster of the Academy for descendants of the Greek gods, has enrolled her at Dynamotheos Development Camp—aka Goddess Boot Camp—with a bunch of ten-year-olds for the summer. Embarrassing as that is, hopefully it’ll help her gain control over her powers in time to pass the test of the gods, continue training hard enough to qualify for the Pythian Games, and enjoy her godly boyfriend, Griffin, all while avoiding the ultimate mistake of accidentally misusing powers.
It's another fast-paced myth-inspired heroine’s quest that's sure to bring out the goddess in anyone.
From Goodreads:
A fun, action-packed novella, perfect for teenage Percy Jackson fans, starring favourite characters from Greek mythology and beloved author Tera Lynn Childs's Oh. My. Gods. series. Told from the perspective of Nicole, a popular character in the series, Goddess in Time delves into her past—and how she might be able to change it.
The 150-page digital novella has been eagerly anticipated by fans who want to know more about this fun-filled world, and new readers will also find a captivating introduction to Tera Lynn Childs' Oh. My. Gods. series, as well as her other Greek mythology-based series, Sweet Venom and Forgive My Fins.
As a descendant of Greek gods, Nicole has attended the Academy alongside other students with magical powers on a Greek island. Life is pretty perfect—except for the fact that she was sentenced to stay there because of a childhood prank that also resulted in her parents' banishment. When Nicole discovers a book that teaches the forbidden magic of time travel, she knows she must take a chance to right her wrong. With the help of her friends Troy and Phoebe, Nicole sets off on a quest that will take her from the heights of Mt. Olympus to the ocean depths of Poseidon's home and to the bowels of Hades. Can she mend her mistakes? And is changing the past, what she really wants? The past and future combine in thrilling, unpredictable ways—especially when Greek gods are involved!
My Review:
Oh, wow, I really enjoyed these books! And I kinda hope for another novella, of Griffin getting his parents back, because I bet that won't happen without some task that he has to complete, other then that, this series has pretty much wrapped up.
For example, we got to find out who Nicole's ancestor god is-well, who she thinks it is. Because she thinks that it's Phonephone. But it's not. She was created by the Fates, but not the ones that are depicted in the Disney version of Hercules, but the young girl, the mother, and the crone.
I really enjoyed the 3 short stories, we got to go more into this world, we learned about Stella's mom, and Phoebe had an awesome date, and yeah, Nicole got into trouble, and the whole "curiosity killed the cat" is not something that Nicole aspires to learn from!
Phoebe got to learn how to deal with her powers, and yeah, while it took a bit, and learning to use all 12, yeah, that was just really great, and awesome, epecailly since she was so worried about that, and then she got to compete, yeah, that was just great, and her test, not using her powers in the race, and the woman who was in front of her, her ancestor god, Nike, which was cool!
I really enjoyed these books, they were just really awesome, and yeah, just such a great series!
