Noah and Allison have sent out two teams on two different missions, but both of them run into trouble when it comes time to act. Soon, it becomes obvious that neither of them was what they seemed to be, and that someone is trying to track down E&E for reasons of their own. When one of the teams goes missing just as someone breaches security at the factory, Noah decides to send himself back into the field, but he's going with the full knowledge that he might be on a suicide mission. Is this the end of Camelot?

Cameron is the sole male demigod of his generation, son of Hesphasteus, best blacksmith of his generation, and the time has come to fulfill his destiny. The task is simple: step up and take his proper place on the Academy council, find his father, the God of Blacksmiths, forge the Ultimate Weapon with his help, and save the world.

With E&E shut down and everyone in hiding, Noah and the rest start to think about retirement. But then, an ultra-secret message comes in that tells him to set up a whole new operation in the UK. The problem is that the first missions to come in are necessary to protect the teams from being found out, and they lead to some discoveries of treason in some of the highest levels of the government - and, perhaps, the end of Allison Peterson.

Cameron's third year as the only male demigod of his generation starts with everything going right, only to be touched by tragedy. His mentor is dead, and everyone thinks she took her own life...but Cameron knows better. And he won't stop until he clears Sarah's name and, heck, maybe do a bit more than that. When you're a Greek demigod, you can do more about death than whine about it. You can go right down into the underworld and take the matter right to Hades.

Find the lost pieces of a key to a secret kingdom? Check. Heal an entire land of corruption? Check. Rally your dragons and lovers for one final battle? Check. Discover the true power of the light and dark? Check. It's time for the final mark on the list: Save the world.
