Underworlds #2: When Monsters Escape
“Also my teeth hurt, my eyes sting, and my fingers ache.
But ever since my friends and I rescued Dana Runson from the Greek Underworld three days ago, pain has been the new normal — “Owen, move it!”
Dana raced toward me across the wet school parking lot. Jon Doyle and Sydney Lamberti were right on her heels.
“Out of the way, O —” Jon yelled.
All three of them tackled me and rolled me to the side as — whoom! — a small car plummeted down from above, smashed onto the sidewalk, and skittered past us, sparking like fireworks, even in the rain.
Just beyond it was a giant, taller than a house, all muscles, shaggy hair … and one huge eye. He was a Cyclops, one of two Greek monsters who escaped from the Underworld into our town. He was ugly, he was huge, and he was mad.

“Run. Now!”
