Vulcan's Kittens (Children of Myth Book 1)

12-year-old Linnea Vulkane is looking forward to a long, lazy summer on Grandpa Heph's farm, watching newborn kittens grow up and helping out with chores. That all goes out the window the night Mars, god of war, demands her grandfather abandon her and return to Olympus for the brewing war.

Now Old Vulcan is racing around the world and across higher planes with Sehkmet to gather allies, leaving Linn and an old immortal friend to protect the farm and the very special litter. But even the best wards won't last forever, and when the farm goes up in flames, she is on the run with a daypack, a strange horse, a sword, and an armful of kittens. Linn needs to grow up fast and master her powers, before the war finds the unlikely refugees...

Snippet from inside the story:
Linn could see a grimace pass over the manâ€™s face. In the firelight his skin was unusually red, as was his hair. She wondered why Grampa hadnâ€™t lit a lamp.
â€œI cannot and will not leave here.â€ The woman on the couch declared, sitting up suddenly. Linn startled as she realized that the woman was a cat... This was her grandfatherâ€™s barn cat, talking and sitting on the couch.
The big man stepped toward her, casting his face into shadow. Linn could still hear the sneer in his voice. â€œBastetâ€™s Daughter, you are the least of our concerns. Vulcan may take on strays and broken... beings, but we do not.â€
â€œI would not go with you, even without my obligations here.â€ Grampa interjected.
â€œOh, the child.â€ The manâ€™s dismissive tone made Linnâ€™s blood boil.
â€œNot just a child. Blood of my blood.â€
â€œWhich Iâ€™m sure she knows nothing about. To her, you are just a broken down old smith.â€
â€œHer mother has told her what we are, I am certain.â€
â€œShe could not even see me if she were able to wake from the spell I cast over her.â€
Linn blinked in surprise. Not only was she wide awake, riveted to the conversation below, but she could see the red man, the cat woman, and the bulk of something else (she was no longer sure it was a man) near the door in the shadows. And as for â€˜what she wasâ€™... she was a human being. Wasnâ€™t she?
