Fear the Fantastic
Katherine Applegate
- Reading
- Try this if your reader enjoys fantasy that mixes mythology with an ongoing series adventure; a brief chat about the premise can clarify whether its peril appeals to them.
- Themes
- Choosing whether to intervene: The group believes the struggle over Olympus is not theirs, yet expects to have to choose a side. The premise sets up a tension between staying out of a conflict and becoming involved; it does not establish which choice the story favours.
- Worth knowing
- The imagined world is described as containing creatures that can be deadly, and the conflict involves a planned seizure of power. The extent of danger or harm is unclear.
