Really liked it a little bit better than the last two books in the series. I think that it has gotten more interesting and I can't wait to see what happens next.

Μετά το δεύτερο, πραγματικά πολύ καλό βιβλίο της σειράς, η συγγραφέας επιστρέφει με ένα τρίτο μέρος εξίσου δυναμικό, ενδιαφέρον και καλοδουλεμένο, με ακόμα πιο έντονες αναφορές και συνδέσεις ανάμεσα στην δική της ιστορία και στην ελληνική -δική μας- μυθολογία. Εντάξει... μην περιμένετε να διαβάσετε τους μύθους μας κατά γράμμα, αλλά δεν νομίζω πως έτσι κι αλλιώς κάτι τέτοιο είναι το ζητούμενο. Η ουσία σε αυτές τις περιπτώσεις είναι να παίρνεις κάτι, να μην του πετάς τα μάτια έξω, και με διακριτικό τρόπο να το κάνεις δικό σου. Ε, η O'Hearn, αυτό ακριβώς κάνει, δίνοντάς μας ένα sequel γεμάτο φανταστικές εικόνες, πηγαία συναισθήματα, ρομάντζο, χωρίς όλα αυτά να υποσκελίζουν την δράση και την αγωνία των περιπετειών των ηρώων μας.

This also gets five stars. I think at this point, this whole series is going to be a solid five stars for me because all the books are just that GOOD.
I can’t even remember devouring this whole novel, but somehow, I flipped through all the pages and reached the end. I thought 420 pages was going to be slow, but I was invested in the characters and conflict that I just ended up finishing the whole book.
Basically, Emily and her friends find out that the CRU has made clones of Olympians and that they plan to take over the world. Emily goes back to planet earth to stop this, or else Jupiter will destroy her world.
Once again, the fight scenes were fun, and I had a blast getting through this. On to the next book now!

I am miles and miles and miles away from being obsessive and compulsive, yet I do have a completion-ist streak in me. That is the only excuse I offer for continuing to read this series of books. It isn’t that they are bad, or horrible. There is nothing Meyer-Twilight-horrific enough to keep me reading because I just can’t look away from the wrongness of it all. But at the same time, this is not a good book.
Action and adventure and flying horses. That’s why I read the first one. Why I read the second… well, it could have improved. It didn’t really, but it was more of the same. Enough to let me know that while this series of books was perfectly adequate for certain tastes, it wasn’t for mine. I like character. Well drawn characters. This does not have that.
It has a very simplistic plot and very simplistic characters. I don’t write that to knock the book. That is what it is aiming to be, I think and hope :) and there is nothing wrong with children’s books being just that. Of course the very best of children’s books have layers and complexity. This doesn’t.
It is a simple story, and it is told in an entertaining fashion. With battles and action galore. It has people standing up for what they believe in, occasionally they may not do the “correct” thing, but they try to do the right thing. So it’ll pass an afternoon, and I think that if I was a child this would be a book that I would love.

This book is as great as the series. It has romance, action, and mostly greek mythology mythology mixed in with the modern world.I love this book because it shows that anyone can be a hero and fight for what they think is right. It made me feel suspense each time I wanted to stop, but I couldn't! It really made me keep the page turning and not wanting me to stop reading till the book ended. I mostly enjoyed when the CRU, a secret agency made clones of the Gods and goddesses of Olympus, its cruel of me to like that but it made me enjoy when the real gods meet the clones. Once it gets to that part, it makes you not want to stop until it has ended or even till one remained victorious. Kate describes each character with a detail that makes you imagine the character as if you could see them right in front of you. When I read how she descried described Cupid, I thought of him as a really cute guy, maybe even better any guy that I've ever seen, not to offend anyone though. I would say go right ahead and read this adventurous book that filled with romance, adventure, and suspense, however that's up to you to choose to read it or leave it.

this book has 419 pages on it. I love this book. It was so good. the cru are the bad guy . they did something bad to try to copy the real olympians. I couldn't even put it down!

Having enjoyed both the previous books in this series, I'm sorry to say that this one disappointed me a little. But the positive things first:
I though the basis for the story was amazing, as just when I thought I couldn't dislike the CRU anymore, Kate's writing succeeded in making me seeth with anger at them all over again.
Also, while Alexis annoyed me to begin with, I thought she turned out to be a really cool character; and I loved the little side romance she had with Agent T (who I though was another great character in this story).
Finally, I really enjoyed Frankie's interactions with Joel, Palean and Chrysoar in LA as I thought the humour in those moments lightened the serious feel of the rest of the plot.
However, now for the parts which I felt weren't as great: Emily, and Destroying the World.
In the previous two novels, I thought Emily had been a really awesome character, both as she took care of Pegasus, made friends with Joel and selflessly sacrificed herself for Olympus in the first novel; and as she worked to control her powers and emotions in the second. However, Emily really irritated me in this book, mainly because she seemed to be so angry most of the time, which resulted in her constantly rebelling against listening to everyone else (especially Alexis). Also, she didn't seem to have the same qualms about using her powers against the CRU in the helicopters and planes that she set fire to, or even from using them against Jupiter himself, which had been so strongly emphasised in the second book.
Secondly, I thought that the ending didn't come close to the tension or emotion that Kate created in the previous stories. I was in tears at the end of both, where as this one only caused me to shake my head in disbelief. For Jupiter to be so determined to destroy earth (which although to begin with I thought was a very extreme response, I did think it made more sense further on in the story) but to then to change his mind the instant Pegasus comes back, seemed just too unbelievable. In addition, the fact that Diana was happy to mingle with her clones at the end, in comparison to how furious both Pegasus and Palean became when they encountered their clones; as well as the clones being taken to Olympus, when Jupiter had been so against their creation, also felt quite far fetched.
Thanks for reading this far, and apologies for how long this review has become and that I seem to have done a lot more complaining than praising, but it was just that for me, these two areas seemed to slightly let down what was otherwise another good novel in the Pegasus series.

I had not read the earlier books and quite a lot needs explaining to me still, after finishing this read. Where exactly is Olympus, how did Emily get there and how did she becomes beloved of the winged horse? The Olympians, the characters from Greek myth, need to partake of ambrosia - who makes this? Emily goes back to Earth because in a story line out of The Black Stallion, a wonder horse is burning up the tracks and it looks like Emily's winged horse.
Then the small team she brings, discover that there are clones of some of the mythological beasts and beings, which they all decry as unnatural. Excuse me, you're riding a flying horse whose brother is a flying boar and you're accompanied by a Sphinx. We're in 'Companions of Xanth' territory.
An author simultaneously has an easy job using Greek myth - the characters and relationships are already written - and a tough one, because how to reconcile all the craziness, the powers of gods, the interaction with humans - and how to make it original?
I just wanted to read about a winged horse, instead of that I got a book about superheroes (which I almost never read) and a massive body count, and fast and loose cloning. How come nobody cloned a female winged horse? That would be easy to do by leaving out a Y chromosome. We actually get almost nothing about the science of genetics. Still, young readers may be interested in finding out more about the facts. The adventure is dramatic and pretty violent.
This is an unbiased review.

Pegasus and the New Olympians by Kate O Hearn is an exciting novel full of mystery and excitement. It was much more intriguing than the first two books in the series and i never wanted to put it down. It begins in olympus, where Emily and her friends must go down to earth due to the CRU cloning the olympians. It started out with another pegasus, and slowly grew until there were multiple Paleans, Joels, and more. Emily and her crew must try to stop them before these dangerous olympians destroy New York. When the team is split up they must figure out what to do in pairs. I would recommend this book to people who enjoy very suspenseful fantasy novel. I would rate this book 5\5.
January 9, 2021
This is one of the few series where I continue enjoying every book. Each new book has a new story like but continued with the same characters. I like how this book included both elements of fantasy and science fiction without making it to confusing.

I Loved The Fourth Book I Think It Was Great!♥
September 9, 2020
I like the way this series is going. The cloning part was unexpected and I just loved how dark that it went at times and the revelation that Emily had about herself.
July 9, 2025
A lot happened in this book! But it was good! Some language and parts that were a bit uncomfortable. But all in all good! I can’t wait to read the next one!!
April 4, 2017
I have already jumped into the next one.....very excited to see where this series is taking me.
January 11, 2017
One of my young friends recommended this book, actually the entire series, because I love horses and she does too. She also enjoys riddles, which I enjoy too, and there are several in this book provided by the wonderful character of the Sphinx! I found it to be a hat-tip to the Percy Jackson books (written by Rick Riordan) in a very positive way, while focusing on Pegasus and his special relationship with his human friend, Emily.
I was surprised that this had a bit more grim and dark themes -- Area 51, cloning aliens (and the subsequent "failed clones" that happen before you get a "successful clone"), torture, and horrific mutilation of clones. It reminded me a bit of the rather dismal movie, "Alien Resurrection" where Ridley is confronted with her own clones, living but terribly deformed, who beg to be destroyed. Not exactly the association I would have thought would be there.
So while I enjoyed Pegasus and his relationship with Emily, and I enjoyed the combination of Olympic gods into our world.... this was not a book I would want to read again.

In Emily’s last adventure she went back to earth and saved her father Steve. But when there are sightings of possible Olympian clones Emily is afraid. If Jupiter were to find out he would get his brothers help and combine their powers to destroy Earth. Emily will not let that happen so Pegasus and her will be going back to Earth to check out if the newspaper articles are true. When in Earth Emily finds that Pegasus has a clone and so does Paelen and Dianna. Not just one but several clones. And what do you know, the CRU is behind all of this. If Emily can stop Jupiter it has to be soon. Emily finds herself in a war that involves friends and enemies on each side. But will she be able to win? I love this book because it is both thrilling and exciting at the same time. It is just as great as the first and second books and I will be reading the fourth book as soon as I can. I recommend this to people who love Greek and Roman mythology.

Synopsis: "When reports reach Olympus of a Pegasus 'double' sighted on Earth, suspicions are aroused. Emily and Pegasus must fly back to her world where they discover a sinister conspiracy that will pit Olympian against human in a war involving friends and enemies on either side."
My Review: I rather enjoyed this series when it first started out but it has progressively gone down hill for me. While it is very creative in ways, I do get sick of the same old enemy that they are fighting, and the way Emily goes about things really gets on my nerves. Not to mention we have gone from a myth and urban fantasy storyline to a more sci-fi based elements. The book really dragged for me and I had to force myself to continue reading it and finish the book. It was rather slow moving with too many things pulling apart and then of course all is miraculously resolved but don't worry more of the same danger is coming for the next book in the series (which I will not be reading).

I’m over 70 pages in, and I give up. I read some of the reviews, and it sounds like it’s not going to get any better.
I loved how Emily’s leg was not healed at the end of the first book. In the second book, she had some trouble, but not as much as I expected. Now she can walk just as well as she used to be able too. Even worse, Joel’s new arm has super strength.
The plot of this book is just ridiculous, and some of the characters make decisions that don’t make much sense. I’m a bit confused as to how Emily doesn’t know more about her new world yet, or why she’s not better able to communicate with Pegasus by now. Then there was the new character of Alexis, who acted annoying and seemed really spoiled.
The only thing I liked was that the aunt, who I thought had been forgotten about, was acknowledged.

This author just makes this book come to life. There is a few parts that leave you hanging but I bet they are going to be later on in the next book.
While Emily is having a good time in Olympus. Diana give her a news paper that had been recently been published and it show a horse that looks a lot like Pegasus (Pegs) and has won a lot of contest because how fast it is but Emily notices a scar where wings might have been. Which means it might have been a clone.
So, Emily, Joel, Paelen, and Alexis (Sphinx) and Pegs go to see if the Other horse is a normal horse or is it a clone that the CRU made. But what if it is a clone what will Joel, Paelen, and Alexis decide to do?

I think this was a very great edition to the Pegasus series. It had lots of action, the interesting addition of clones, and some amazing new characters! This was my favourite book of the series so far, it had the same amount of action, adventure, and emotion as the other books, but I think that it was different....and that made it even better!
July 15, 2017
Fantastically written...the characters just leapt off the page. I enjoyed every moment of this. Despite it's classification as middle-grade/young adult there is just something about this book that I think will appeal to all ages.
I am a huge fan of books about mythology and simply can't get enough of them. What a fantastic find. Eagerly awaiting reading the next instalment.

Emily is back safely at Olympus with her friends when her father and Diana return from Earth with a newspaper. Emily starts flipping through it and sees an alarming sight. A horse that looks scarily like Pegasus just won the Triple Crown, a feat almost impossible for any ordinary racehorse. There's no mistaking it. This horse is identical to Pegasus. After talking with Jupiter about the possibility that the CRU, (Central Research Unit) an evil government organization that the Olympians have encountered before, could be cloning other Olympians, Jupiter vows to destroy Earth as soon as he gets the truth. So without hesitation, Emily, Joel, Paelen, Chrysaor, Pegasus, and Alexis go to Earth to see what this mysterious resemblance is all about. They soon confirm that the CRU has indeed cloned Olympians of all sorts and that sightings of other Olympians have been made all around the USA. After the group gets separated in a heated aerial fight with the CRU, will they stop the organization from making more clones before Jupiter comes to destroy the Earth? This is the third book in a 6-book series and let me just tell you that I am LOVING it so far! It's amazing! I can't believe that I waited so long to read it! I actually read the sequel series to Pegasus, Titans, before reading this one, and it made perfect sense without reading Pegasus. But once I finish Pegasus, I'm definitely going to have to re-read Titans! The amount of action and adventure in this book is absolutely amazing. It always leaves me wanting more! I can't turn the page fast enough! This is a great series if you like mythology of any kind! Just when you think everything is calm...BAM PLOT TWIST! I love the introduction of Frankie in this book - he made a great addition to the cast of characters! At first, I wanted to smack Alexis upside her head (sorry, but I did) but she quickly grew on me. I like the connection she has with Agent T. AND THE ENDING! *chef's kiss* Perfection! I hope that you enjoy this series as much as I do!

Marked spoiler at the end, but otherwise a safe review. I give this 3.5 stars, rounding down to 3. While I thoroughly enjoyed the first two books, this one just doesn’t do it for me. It’s been three books of the same enemy and while I still like Emily for the most part, her willful ignorance is beginning to grate on me.
She’s been thrown headfirst into the world of mythology, sure, but she’s practically worshipped by the Olympians. She recognizes her importance yet does she pick up a book to learn about her new people? Noooo. I get that the author is using her ignorance as a tool to explain mythology, but there are ways to do it without making her ignorant to the point of frustration.
Everything else in this book...... was just okay. It was oddly paced, there was random jealousy, and the decisions characters made didn’t make much sense to me. The whole book was just chaos and felt poorly planned out. It was also quite dark in a way that was altogether unexpected and unnecessary in a children’s book, especially when that darkness was mostly glanced over.
It’s hard for me to pinpoint what exactly ruined this book for me, but in general it didn’t quite sit well. I plan on finishing the series still, but I’m unsure if I’d still recommend it. There were just too many wtf moments as I was reading it.
*****Tiny Spoiler Here*****
In my review of the last book I mentioned how excited I was that Kate O’Hearn had kept Emily’s leg injury because it was a great to see a heroine with a physical disadvantage still kick ass. But in this book she just magically decides her leg is okay and magically it is and I’m so mad about it. Kate lost a lot of points with me over this.
Well, that and how Joel’s arm (after he basically had it amputated) was replaced by a fully functional even better one. The author had the chance to provide representation and she didn’t even try.

SCENERIA: Olimp
Granie w piłkę nożną przez ludzkie dzieci, centaury oraz bogów olimpijskich. Tłumaczenie Jowiszowi przez dewczynkę na czym polega gra.
On ma wieki na karku! Myślę, że raczej by wiedział o co cho.
POMYSŁ: Po porostu BOSKI🫠
Taki wymyślony przez 8- letniego chłopca co lubi piłkarzyki o pierwszy raz w szkole usłyszał o Mitologi Rzymskiej.
A więc tak: przy tłuamczeniu dlaczego olimpijska kobieta nie może chodzić w Stanach z odsłonietym biuście nastoletnia laska mówi, że teraz są inne czasy i każda kobieta chodzi z zasałoniętymi cyckami- normalne tłumaczenie. Ale oczywiście zaraz trzeba szczególnie zaznaczyć, że będzie rozpraszać jej kolegów i nie skupią się na misji.
Menwchile, ponad 100 stron dalej: Jeden z tych kolegów głównej bohaterki mówi do drugiego co nie ma bluzki oraz zgubił spodnie i ich szuka: zawsze możesz chodzić goły.
A teraz dokładnie cytując to co powiedział po stwierdzeniu a czemu by nie na golasa "jestem przekonany że Alexis (olimpijska kobieta) i Emily (główna bohaterka)oraz cała rzymska część populacji nie miałaby nic przeciwko".
