Lore

Greek gods and heroes play a murderous game in this YA story of power, destiny and redemption
Hunt, or be hunted: the houses of the ancient Greek heroes play a murderous game in New York every seven years. For one hunter, Lore, the time has come to seek the ultimate vengeance for her family's murder. A high-octane story of power, destiny and redemption from the No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of The Darkest Minds.

Every seven years, the Agon begins. As punishment for a past rebellion, nine Greek gods are forced to walk the earth as mortals. They are hunted by the descendants of ancient bloodlines, all eager to kill a god and seize their divine power and immortality.

Long ago, Lore Perseous fled that brutal world, turning her back on the hunt's promises of eternal glory after her family was murdered by a rival line. For years she's pushed away any thought of revenge against the man - now a god - responsible for their deaths.

Yet as the next hunt dawns over New York City, two participants seek her out: Castor, a childhood friend and first love Lore believed to be dead, and Athena, one of the last of the original gods, now gravely wounded.

The goddess offers an alliance against their mutual enemy and a way to leave the Agon behind forever. But Lore's decision to rejoin the hunt, binding her fate to Athena's, will come at a deadly cost - and it may not be enough to stop the rise of a new god with the power to bring humanity to its knees.

"Epic from start to finish." - Marie Lu, author of Warcross
