In this genre-defining contemporary fantasy, Lore Perseous is drawn back into the Agon, a hunt occurring every seven years in which descendants of ancient Greek bloodlines have the chance to kill gods and seize their divine power and immortality. As the hunt descends on New York City, Lore is offered a rare opportunity to seek vengeance against her family's killer.
Allied with Athena, one of the last of the original gods, and reunited with Castor, the childhood friend and first love Lore believed to be dead, Lore may finally have a chance to leave the bloody competition behind for good. But her 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.
