Emma Russell

“	Our world is changing. The mass extinction we feared… has already begun… and we are the cause. We are the infection. But like all living organisms, the Earth unleashed a fever to fight this infection: its original and rightful rulers, the Titans. For thousands of years, these creatures have remained in hiding around the world. And unless all the Titans are found, our planet will perish, and so will we. They are the only guarantee that life will carry on.	„
