Halo

Washed ashore as a baby in ancient Periclean Greece, just as legend is fading away and recorded history starting to happen, Halo is discovered by a family of Centaurs. Her identity a mystery, she is taken in and loved as one of their own. But when Halo is dragged away by fishermen who want to sell her as a slave, her wild adventure begins . . . Halo soon realises that if she is to survive then she must live in disguise — as a boy. A violent war is threatening to erupt and Halo is at the mercy of mighty Spartan warriors. Alongside her best friend, the Centaur Arko, trying to hide her secret, beset by enemies, Halo forges her way to Athens, the centre of power and knowledge — determined to find out who she is, and where she really came from.
