Hades may love darkness, sulfur, and the gloomy Underworld, but there is one thing he cannot stand: dogs. That becomes a serious problem when Zeus and the other young Olympians must enter the Underworld and face Cerberus, the snarling three-headed hound guarding the way.
The quest is already dangerous. The heroes need to return the Titan Oceanus to the Underworld, but magical forgetfulness, burning lava, and more Titan trouble stand between them and success. If Hades wants to help his friends move forward, he will have to face the fear he would rather avoid.
This Heroes in Training adventure turns Greek mythology into a fast, funny chapter book filled with monsters, action, friendship, and a young god learning that bravery can begin with admitting what scares you.

Poseidon is headed out to sea, which would be exciting if he were not afraid of water. Zeus, Hera, and Poseidon must cross a dangerous boiling sea to save another Olympian, all while Cronus and the Titans are chasing them. They have a boat, but Poseidon’s fear of swimming and sea creatures makes every wave feel like a threat.
The journey quickly grows more dangerous. Sirens sing, monsters attack, and the Titan Oceanus waits in the water with plenty of trouble of his own. Poseidon will need more than a famous name to help his friends survive the voyage.
This action-filled Heroes in Training adventure gives Greek mythology a funny, approachable twist, with sea monsters, teamwork, and a young hero learning how to face the thing that frightens him most.
