The demigod children of any number of cultures are back for another set of adventures. This time, their troubles result from a challenge they make to Gilgamesh High, a similar high school not too far away. The result is an athletic event in which the losing players will be sacrificed to the parents of the winners. While all of this is going on, two heroes from the first installment thought to be dead find themselves traveling through the various forms of the afterlife as they make their way back to Pantheon High.

The illustrations are just as good. The story is good, but suffers a bit from being the second volume in a trilogy, which means it ties up loose ends from the first volume and sets things up for the next volume.
