In the thrilling second installment of the Cronus Chronicles trilogy, author Anne Ursu brings her trademark wit to a spectacular adventure on the high seas..

He wants revenge, and with his grandfather to help him, he is going to get what he wants.
And Philonecron himself isn\'t so happy about having all of his delicious plans thwarted by mortal children.
For Philonecron is the grandson of Poseidon, and you don\'t mess with the progeny of the second most powerful god in the universe.
But things aren\'t quite as ordinary as they seem.
Instead, they are forced to keep this terrible knowledge to themselves, and are stuck in a state of extraordinary ordinariness.
