Dark Frost by Jennifer Estep

Dark Frost (Mythos Academy, #3)

by Jennifer Estep

I've seen so many freaky things since I started attending Mythos Academy last fall. I know I'm supposed to be a fearless warrior, but most of the time, I feel like I'm just waiting for the next Bad, Bad Thing to happen. Like someone trying to kill me--again.

Everyone at Mythos Academy knows me as Gwen Frost, the Gypsy girl who uses her psychometry magic to find lost objects--and who just may be dating Logan Quinn, the hottest guy in school. But I'm also the girl the Reapers of Chaos want dead in the worst way. The Reapers are the baddest of the bad, the people who murdered my mom. So why do they have it in for me? It turns out my mom hid a powerful artifact called the Helheim Dagger before she died. Now, the Reapers will do anything to get it back. They think I know where the dagger is hidden, but this is one thing I can't use my magic to find. All I do know is that the Reapers are coming for me--and I'm in for the fight of my life.

Our story continues with Gwen seeking the Helheim Dagger's location as she tries to avert death due to reapers.

1. Action -- still a lot of action as somebody is always trying to kill Gwen. This time around, we have some new players in the game.
2. More is revealed -- we learn a lot more about Daphne, Logan, Gwen, Grace, Grandma Frost, Reaper Girl, and many others. We also see some developments with Daphne's powers, Gwen's powers, Logan and Gwen's relationship, Gwen and Nike's relationship.
3. Gwen gets a new sidekick and this sidekick made me happy


If you liked the other books, you will like this one too. It advances the story on many different fronts and introduces many new wrinkles into this Loki problem.
