Extract
Hi, I’m Silvia, an ordinary kid just like you. Or at least I was ordinary until my dad went missing and we both wound up back in an alternative version of Ancient Rome called Romana. Yeah, it took me by surprise too, but travelling back in time was nothing compared to what happened next.
You see, it turns out I’m a demigod – daughter of the war goddess Bellona – and I have shedloads of godly brothers and sisters. Just name your favourite mythical creature and I’m probably related to them.
So, maybe I should have seen this coming. But Medusa – my Auntie Medusa? Like, what the gods!
