Like millions of others around the world, Karl Huber is crazy about Olympus, the new full-cyber-suit, multi-player, online virtual reality game-even though his father hates it. When Mr. Huber forbids his son to play the game in his house any more, Karl's jealous twin Jacob seizes the opportunity to tempt his brother to run away. With trails leading in all directions, Karl could be anywhere on earth. The only way to find him is to look for him within Olympus, where sinister forces are using high technology to build a world too fascinating for children to resist and too profitable for adults to ignore.

Finding Karl in the game turns out to be the easy part. But in this computer-generated version of ancient mythical Greece, nothing is what it seems to be. The wealthy, the powerful, and the clever hold the destinies of all other players in a web of treachery and manipulation. Karl and his friends have stumbled into a fantasy adventure that is all too real. Their families find themselves fighting for their children--and their lives!All Rights Reserved

Must the Flowers Die by sylvianturtle

Mia Tao's life in small-town South Carolina is ordinary. She dreams of studying fashion design in New York, and, occasionally, of kissing her best friend since childhood, Alex. Then Liam Morrison moves to town. Beautiful, intelligent, supportive, Liam seems like the perfect man. But Liam isn't in town by accident. Millennia ago, powerful sorceresses formed a coalition with nymphs to banish the gods back to Olympus for their cruel and destructive abuse of power. Now, Olympus is collapsing, and Liam, the demi-god son of a mortal and Artemis, has been tasked with re-opening the gateway between the mortal world and Olympus. If he fails, everyone on Olympus dies. If he succeeds, it unleashes the capricious gods to once again wreck havoc on the lives of mortals. This mission puts him in direct collision course with Alex, whose family are descendants of the sorceresses who expelled the gods and bound by duty and magic to prevent their return. As Mia begins to love Liam, she is pulled into a fated battle between two supernatural factions, with Liam on one side and Alex on the other. Alliances form and break as the creatures and beings long subordinated by human development rise to reclaim power and protect their own. Mia is not only torn personally, but also morally. In a situation where some must suffer for others to live, how does she choose a side?
