(Ancients: Book 1) Being immortal and being unable to die are two reasons for Scarlet Evans to be in a severely bad mood. Added to it is the fact that she has to babysit a teenager who could, or could not, destroy the world in an unprovoked tantrum.

However, I am compelled to warn you that this book contains a lot of swearing (a LOT), as well as deplorable behaviour and the occasional violent outburst. "Hey!" Okay, fine, I'll stop now. *** "I am so sick of saving the world now, why can't someone else have the pleasure? Why do I have to be the saviour of the earth while most of its inhabitants don't even know I've gone and saved it? I've spent most of my existence looking after the mortal realm, and I hate it. I don't know why they can't just destroy themselves and get it over with."
