Lore

From The #1 New York Times Best-selling Author Of The Darkest Minds Comes A Sweepingly Ambitious, High-octane Tale Of Power, Destiny, Love And Redemption. Her Name Will Be Legend Every Seven Years, The Agon Begins. As Punishment For A Past Rebellion, Nine Greek Gods Are Forced To Walk The Earth As Mortals, 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 In The Wake Of Her Family's Sadistic Murder By A Rival Line, Turning Her Back On The Hunt's Promises Of Eternal Glory. 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 Out Her Help: Castor, A Childhood Friend Of Lore Believed Long Dead, And A Gravely Wounded Athena, Among The Last Of The Original Gods. The Goddess Offers An Alliance Against Their Mutual Enemy And, At Last, A Way For Lore To Leave The Agon Behind Forever. But Lore's Decision To Bind Her Fate To Athena's And Rejoin The Hunt Will Come At A Deadly Cost--and Still May Not Be Enough To Stop The Rise Of A New God With The Power To Bring Humanity To Its Knees.
