An explosive romantasy YA, perfect for fans of The
Hunger Games and Lore.
"A thrilling, fast-paced, and brutal tale of revenge,
loyalty, courage, and friendship. Avery has created a world that
is merciless in its cruelty and trickery, and a cast of gods who
revel in causing chaos, but Ara, a heroine full of heart, is more
than a match for even the wickedest of them." - Melinda
Salisbury, bestselling author of Her Dark Wings
Every Lunar Eclipse signifies the beginning of The Immortal
Games: an epic set of games played by the Gods of
Olympus, with randomly-selected humans as their Tokens. The stakes
are high; the Gods covet entertainment and glory above all else,
for the Tokens, it's about survival.
17-year-old Ara wants revenge. Revenge on the
Gods for allowing her older sister to die in the Games. She's determined
to be selected as a Token and find a weapon powerful enough
to kill a God. But when she's plucked from the clutches of death
by Hades, God of the Underworld, the odds are
stacked against her. Hades is the outcast of the Gods, and the
only one who has never won the games. But he soon realises that Ara
does not fear death, just as she does not fear him, and when a
wager with Zeus and Poseidon puts both their futures at stake, the
games take on a new meaning.
With each challenge, the games become more brutal. Can Ara put
aside her rage and survive?
For fans of Circe, Ariadne and The
Silence of the Girls.
Perfectly plotted Greek Mythology and Astrology makes
this the perfect YA for BookTok.
Cover stunningly illustrated by Instagram star, Tom Roberts.
