See that gal, the one with the bright red hair, overstuffed backpack, and aura of grumpiness? That's Charlotte Mielswetzski. Then one extra-ordinary is about to happen to her. Oh, it isn't the very attractive kitten that appears out of nowhere and needs to go back home with her. It isn't the sudden introduction of her cousin Zee, who thinks he's the reason for a incomprehensible sickness that has struck his friends back England. It isn't her creepy English professor Mr. Metos, who takes his mythology lessons just a little too very seriously. And it's really not the white-faced, yellow-eyed men in tuxedoes, who follow Charlotte all over the place. What's so amazing is not any one of the things.... It's most of them. And when Charlotte's friends commence to get sick one at a time, Charlotte and Zee set out to find a cure. Their mission leads these to a not-so-mythical Underworld, where they face rhyme-loving Harpies, gods with staff problems, and ghosts with a thirst for blood vessels. Charlotte and Zee learn that in a world overrun by Nightmares, Pain, and Fatality, the truly dangerous figure is a man named Phil. And they find that the fate of every person - living and deceased - is within their young hands. In her amazing debut for young listeners, Anne Ursu weaves a tale of misconception and adventure, threat and magic that could keep listeners engrossed before very last magic formula is revealed.
