A folktale about being different Hunch was different from everyone
else. He knew it. They knew it. And his arch rival Tax, who was the
best at absolutely everything, never failed to use it against him.
However, nobody knew a surprise was at hand, from the Things that
lurked deep inside the wood. Things so terrible that nobody has
ever been able to describe them!

When the goddess Artemis goes missing, she is believed to have been kidnapped. And now it’s up to Percy and his friends to find out what happened.
Who is powerful enough to kidnap a goddess?
They must find Artemis before the winter solstice, when her influence on the Olympian Council could swing an important vote on the war with the titans. Not only that, but first Percy will have to solve the mystery of a rare monster that Artemis was hunting when she disappeared―a monster rumored to be so powerful it could destroy Olympus forever.

like Deirdre Sullivan. She is lyrical, poetic and thoroughly
intoxicating.' Juno Dawson, author of Wonderland 'Unsettling,
haunting, and darkly lyrical, Savage Her Reply is a beautiful
thing.' Louise O'Neill, author of After The Silence A retelling of

its exploration of the guilt of a complex character. A dark &
witchy feminist retelling from the author of Tangleweed and Brine
