THE MAGNIFICENT TWELVE: THE KEY
GRANT, MICHAEL
Time is short for Mack MacAvoy and the Magnifica! Mack hates doing homework (that's what golems are for),
but it seems that the only way to defeat the Pale Queen and her evil daughter, Risky, is to learn the magical
language of Vargran. If only ancient, magical languages came with cheat sheets. . . Oh! But they do! (Or at least,
this one does. We can't speak for any other ancient, magical languages.) Mack, Jarrah, Xiao, Dietmar, and
Stefan travel to Europe to find the Key, an engraved stone that unlocks the power of Vargran. But can they locate
the invisible castle of William "BlisterthÖng" MacGuffin, who guards the Key? (Yeah, we said "Blisterthong."
Yeah, it's as painful as it sounds.) Mack has less than thirty days to master Vargran, round up the rest of the
Magnifica, and defeat Princess Risky. Will the Key be enough? Or is there something else Mack must find in
order to save the world?

THE MARK OF ATHENA
RIORDAN, RICK
In The Son of Neptune, Percy, Hazel, and Frank met in Camp Jupiter, the Roman equivalent of Camp Halfblood,
and traveled to the land beyond the gods to complete a dangerous quest. The third book in the Heroes of
Olympus series will unite them with Jason, Piper, and Leo. But they number only six--who will complete the
Prophecy of Seven? The Greek and Roman demigods will have to cooperate in order to defeat the giants
released by the Earth Mother, Gaea. Then they will have to sail together to the ancient land--Greece itself--to
find the Doors of Death. What exactly are the Doors of Death? Much of the prophesy remains a mystery. . . .
