Wow, I left poor Pandy hanging for slightly over a year. Sorry, Pandy!
I finally picked up #6 again and finished it. We last left Pandy and crew in Baghdad after their adventure there. Hera was made into sandals and then left buried in separate places, so she's in pieces.
Now we're in Rome and the search for greed is not going well. Pandy and Alcie are slaves. Iole is a Vestal. Homer is a gladiator/stable boy.
And Julius Caesar is in it.
The history-minded might see a bit of a problem there. Yeah, it takes a few chapters for Pandy and friends to be told they've travelled into the future.
Both versions of each god are around, which gets entertaining. And Juno of course is the one to figure out what's going on and put all Hera's pieces back together.
It's not the most interesting or action-packed of the books, but it's good. I loved Cloacina, the Roman sewer goddess playing a large role.
The final quest...find fear in the underworld. Let's finish this, Pandy.
