About this ebook

*** Hunt, or be hunted: the houses of the ancient Greek heroes play a murderous game in this high-octane story of power, destiny and redemption - an instant no.1 New York Times bestseller. ***

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

"A brilliant and breathless twist on classic mythology!" - Marissa Meyer, author of The Lunar Chronicles

This incredible twist on Greek mythology comes from the author of the amazing young adult novels PASSENGER, WAYFARER and THE DARKEST MINDS series. Alexandra Bracken has also written IMMORTAL ROSE, an intoxicating romantasy for older readers.
