Pandora Gets Angry: The Mythic Misadventures
Ebook
Overview
Pandora and her friends are off to Persia to track down the fifth evil, Rage. Though they have camels to help them travel across the desert, mysterious sandstorms and frightening strangers keep them from moving quickly. And they are down one team member with Alcie stuck in the underworld (but not for long).
The underworld’s coolest teenager, Persephone returns Alcie to her friends. With their team back in full force, Pandy & Co begin asking everyone they meet about the evil. And a boy named Douban thinks he knows where Rage is hiding. He tells the tale of an evil genie who has cursed his family. Now the genie is trapped in a lamp and there’s a good chance the evil is trapped in there with him.
Wishing for more Pandora? An evil genie (sort of) grants wishes in this fifth installment.
