Sweet Legacy

Gr 7–10—Triplets Gretchen, Grace, and Greer are the teenage descendants of the gorgon Medusa. They must locate and guard the gateway to the Abyss, protecting Earth from the monsters that would otherwise overrun it. Some of the gods of Greek mythology are lined up against them, while others lend them support. Before the sisters look for the gateway, they must rescue Euryale and Sthenno, Medusa's sisters, who can mentor them as they learn to wield their powers. They also plan to seek out their biological mother who gave them up for adoption as babies. Will she be able to answer their many questions? This book concludes the "Sweet Venom" trilogy with an action-packed climax and triumphant resolution for the three girls, their families, and their boyfriends. Character development is not a strong point, but readers looking for plenty of action and a new take on mythology will enjoy this series. Purchase this volume where the first two books have proven popular, as readers unfamiliar with the series will find this a confusing place to start.—Misti Tidman, Licking County Library, Newark, OH
