Shadowborne ⚡︎ Percy Jackson

The gods are watching. Pyrrha has been waiting.

Seventeen-year-old Pyrrha has spent years proving she doesn't need Olympus.

The daughter of Hephaestus and Aphrodite, she wields fire like a craftsman and carries beauty like armor-but her greatest strength is the one the gods never expected: restraint. After being abandoned the moment she pledged herself to Camp Half-Blood, Pyrrha vowed to protect the camp in ways the gods never protected her. Now a trusted counselor, she hides old wounds behind sarcasm, steady leadership, and a promise she never breaks.

Then Percy Jackson arrives unconscious at the edge of the camp-fresh from slaying a Minotaur and carrying a storm he doesn't yet understand.

Tasked by Chiron to watch over Percy, Pyrrha becomes his shadow, his shield, and the older sister he didn't know he needed. But when Percy is claimed as the son of Poseidon, the ground beneath Olympus begins to crack. Monsters gather. Ancient grudges resurface. And a long-buried prophecy awakens-one Pyrrha never wanted to hear again.

When Percy is chosen to retrieve Zeus's stolen bolt, Pyrrha is ordered to follow him into danger alongside two other demigods. She doesn't yet understand the riddle woven into her prophecy-only that it speaks of fire, shadow, and a broken bond with a god who once turned his back on her.

As the quest spirals into betrayal, sacrifice, and impossible choices, Pyrrha must decide whether she is meant to remain in the background...

-or finally step into the fire and become something Olympus fears.
