Description

Ares, Zeus, and the other Olympians encounter a huge snake and a sharp challenge in this Heroes in Training adventure.
After overcoming many challenges, Zeus and his fellow Olympians arrive at the temple at Delphi—only to find a giant snake guarding the entrance! Beyond the python, Pythia appears. Trapped in the temple by the python's magic and mere presence, Pythia urges the Olympians not to worry about her, for they are urgently needed on another quest.

The Olympians are now out to find the Spear of Fear. A group of Amazonian women currently have it, but it really belongs to Ares, the God of War. Ares is thrilled to know the next quest is about him—but soon realizes that when it comes to the powerful spear, he has a LOT to learn...

        November 1, 2014

        Gr 2-4-The god of war marches forth in this latest installment of the series about the Olympians (portrayed here as children) and their attempts to escape their vengeful father, Cronus. This time, Ares takes the spotlight as he attempts to rightfully reclaim the spear of fear, a powerful weapon that fell into the wrong hands. This is an irreverent series (which SLJ previously called "a fun read...[for] those still too young for Percy Jackson's adventure"), brimming with action, relatable characters, and hilarious kid-friendly dialogue.
