Freya's quest to tip the scales against her enemies takes her to Hollywood, where the world of show business offers fame and power. The ancient Norse goddess of love, magic, and war disguises herself once again—this time as an up-and-coming star on a scandalous TV series.

With sinister forces at her heels, an unknown threat lurking behind the cameras, and two sidekicks falling in love, Freya finds she must walk a dangerous line between mortal and god to stay ahead of those out to destroy her and the people she loves.

Readers who love fantasy, science fiction, and contemporary will all find something to grab onto in the second book of this action-packed young adult series. Slay is Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets Neil Gaiman's American Gods—in Hollywood!

Industry Reviews

Praise for Freya:

Move over, Percy Jackson, there's a new girl in town. --Booklist

This series debut blends philosophy (free will, destiny, faith), humor, multidimensional characters, and a fast-moving, well-constructed plot into a compulsively entertaining read." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review

Adrenaline-infused adventure. --School Library Journal

Boatloads of action, villains who are at once familiar and original in their quests for world domination, and a savvy team of multireligious goddesses make for a kick-ass adventure situated between science and belief. --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (BCCB)
