Reseña del libro "Everything Has A Price"
What if the gods of mythology were real-but everything humanity believed about them was wrong? For John, life was supposed to be complicated in the ordinary ways. He was a teenager in Chicago dealing with school, friendships, family, and feelings for Jasmine that had followed him for years. But the world John thought he understood is about to disappear. Ancient stories begin colliding with reality as John and his friends discover that the gods, monsters, demigods, and legendary creatures humanity dismissed as mythology are frighteningly real. Behind those legends lies an even greater truth: the history of Olympus is connected to an ancient conflict involving Heaven, fallen angels, Lucifer, and a war whose consequences have never truly ended. John, Jasmine, Marcus, and Ho Young soon discover that they are not innocent bystanders. They are descendants of demigods, possessing extraordinary abilities they barely understand-and they have been selected as champions in a deadly supernatural tournament. Their enemies are the creatures of legend. Chiron hunts them. Fenrir waits for his opportunity to strike. And Leviathan, a monstrous dragon with a history of slaughtering demigods and challenging some of the most powerful beings in existence, may prove to be an enemy none of them can survive. John can manipulate wind and teleport. Jasmine possesses an extraordinary connection to water and other liquids. But supernatural abilities do not make them invincible. Every confrontation forces the young champions to learn how their powers work while facing enemies who have been fighting and killing for centuries. And every victory has a price. Friendships are tested. Love becomes both a source of strength and vulnerability. People they care about can die. Behind everything, Lucifer and the inhabitants of Olympus watch as the tournament unfolds, knowing that its outcome is connected to a conflict far greater than four teenagers could possibly understand. As John and Jasmine fight to stay alive, they begin uncovering secrets that challenge everything they believed about religion, mythology, angels, gods, and humanity's own history. What began as an impossible fight for survival becomes a journey into a hidden supernatural world where ancient grudges remain alive, legendary monsters walk the Earth, and the distinction between mythology and history becomes dangerously thin. Everything Has a Price blends urban fantasy, mythology, supernatural action, romance, humor, friendship, and large-scale battles into an adventure that moves between modern America and a hidden world of gods, angels, demons, demigods, and monsters. John and Jasmine may have powers. They may even have destiny on their side. But destiny doesn't guarantee survival. Because in a war involving gods, monsters, Heaven, and Hell, power is never free-and everything has a price. This length is comfortably within IngramSpark's 4,000-byte full-description limit and is long enough to give its current metadata-assistance system substantial information about the characters, setting, genre, themes, and plot. Short description, if IngramSpark asks for that field too: Four Chicago teenagers discover they are descendants of demigods and are thrown into a deadly supernatural tournament involving ancient gods, legendary monsters, fallen angels, and Lucifer himself.
