Olymposvuoren löytöeläinkeskuksen jumalat eivät koskaan peräänny mytologisesta haasteesta. He ovat jo ratkaisseet kultaiset kirpun tehtävän ja voittaneet pelottavan lohikäärmeen, eikä mikään voi pysäyttää heitä – tai niin he ainakin luulevat. Mutta kuinka käy, kun uusi tehtävä johtaa heidät salaperäiseen sokkeloon, jonka kerrotaan olevan tulta hönkivän, hirmuisen härkähirviön koti? Liity Zeus-hamsterin, Athene-kissan, Demeter-heinäsirkan, Poseidon-pallokalan ja herkkusuumopsi Areksen seuraan heidän tähän asti hikisimmässä seikkailussaan!

Hän on nimennyt keskuksen eläimet jumalten nimillä, ja eläimet tempautuvatkin antiikin Kreikasta tuttuihin seikkailuihin. Kirjan loppuosassa on tieto-osuus, joka vie kartan ja tarinan avulla alkuperäisen myytin ja sen henkilöiden äärelle.

The other Olympians mount a rescue mission, only to encounter enchanting mermaidlike creatures with hypnotic songs and a tentacled shape-shifter who tells tales of the future. His uncanny abilities make the Olympians question themselves--and each other. Can the god squad stick together, or will the strange currents of this underwater world tear them apart?
