Summary:"After overcoming many challenges, Zeus and his fellow Olympians arrive at the temple at Delphi--only to find a giant snake guarding the entrance! Beyond the python, Pythia appears. Trapped in the temple by the python's magic and mere presence, Pythia urges the Olympians not to worry about her, for they are urgently needed on another quest. The Olympians are now out to find the Spear of Fear. A group of Amazonian women currently have it, but it really belongs to Ares, the God of War. Ares is thrilled to know the next quest is about him--but soon realizes that when it comes to the powerful spear, he has a LOT to learn" -- from publisher's web site.
