Lore

From the No.1 New York Times bestselling author of THE DARKEST MINDS comes a
high-octane story of power, destiny and redemption. A lifetime ago, Lore
Perseous left behind the brutal, opulent world of the Agon families - ancient
Greek bloodlines that participate in a merciless game every seven years. A
game that is about to begin again ...

For centuries, Zeus has punished the gods with a game called the Agon, which
turns them mortal for one week, and at the mercy of being hunted by those with
godly ambitions. Only a handful of the original Greek gods remain, the rest
replaced by the mortals who killed them and ascended.

After her family's sadistic murder by a rival bloodline, Lore escapes and vows
to repay her parents' sacrifice by doing one thing - surviving. For seven
years, she has pushed back dark thoughts of revenge against the man
responsible for their murder, a man by the name of Wrath who has attained
unimaginable power. Except for one week, every seven years. A week that is
fast approaching ...

When Lore comes home on the first night of the Agon to find Athena gravely
wounded on her doorstep, the goddess offers her an alliance; they have a
mutual enemy, after all. But as the world trembles under the force of Wrath -
a god with the power to destroy all of humanity - will Lore's decision to bind
her fate with Athena's come back to haunt her?
