Leap into the world of Zeus the hamster and his gang of gods as they solve the mystery of the labyrinth in the second book in this hilarious modern-day take on Greek mythology. Our story begins in the depths of a winding labyrinth, the domain of a fearsome Minotaur who threatens all who live on Mount Olympus. Can Zeus the Mighty save the day? They're back and on the quest of a lifetime!

Welcome to Mount Olympus, a pet supply and rescue centre that sits high atop a hill in Athens, Georgia. By day, the pets there do what all pets do: Chew on a bone or curl up for a catnap. Under the careful watch of their Greek history obsessed caretaker, Artie, the pets listen in to her favourite podcast, Greeking Out, each night. But under the cover of nightfall, Zeus and his cohorts spring free from their cages and pursue quests bestowed upon them by the magical all-knowing Oracle of Wi-Fi. And once again, she has spoken: There's a threat in Mount Olympus Pet Center, and it's going to take guts, smarts, and strength to triumph. Join Zeus and his friends on this rollicking romp through a winding labyrinth (the centre's duct system) and Greek mythology.
Greek mythology meets The Secret Life of Pets in this first adventure in a new middle grade fiction series, starring Zeus, the mighty hamster, and the crazy crew of critters of the Mount Olympus Pet Supply Shop. Welcome to the Mount Olympus Pet Supply Shop, which sits high on a hill in Athens, ... Georgia. The owner, Artie, has a soft spot for animals that need a forever home and has rescued a menagerie of creatures, each named after a powerful god or goddess. But these animals aren't just pets with cool names ... Zeus is a tiny little hamster with a mighty appetite for power. His cage sits atop a high shelf so he can watch the other pets from above. As king of the creatures, he dictates the nightly agenda to all his animal minions. But the others are getting pretty tired of answering to the egotistical fluff ball. When Zeus betrays his friends for his own gain, they turn on this cheeky rodent. Worst of all, Artie is beginning to notice something is amiss. Can Zeus repair his friendships and restore order to the pet shop before their secret is revealed to the world? Get ready to laugh, cheer, and learn with this adorable and hilarious cast of characters in their unforgettable first adventure!
