Endgame is here. Earth Key has been found. Two keys – and nine Players – remain. The keys must be found, and only one Player can win.
Queens, New York. Aisling Kopp believes the unthinkable: that Endgame can be stopped. But before she can get home to regroup, she is approached by the CIA. They know about Endgame. And they have their own ideas about how it should be Played. Ideas that could change everything.
Kingdom of Aksum, Ethiopia. Hilal ibn Isa al-Salt narrowly survived an attack that leaves him horribly disfigured. He now knows something the other Players do not. But the Aksumites have a secret that is unique to their line. A secret that can help redeem humanity – and maybe even be used to help defeat the beings behind Endgame.
London, England. Sarah Alopay has found the first key. She is with Jago – and they are winning. But getting Earth Key has come at a great cost to Sarah. The only thing that keeps the demons at bay is Playing. Playing to win.
Sky Key – wherever it is, whatever it is – is next. And the nine remaining Players will stop at nothing to get it…
Book 3
The explosive final novel in the Endgame trilogy, by New York Times bestelling author, James Frey.
Two keys have been found. The strongest Players are left. One final key remains to win Endgame and save the world.
For Sarah, Jago, Aisling, Maccabee, Shari, An, and Hilal, Endgame has reached its final phase. The third key, Sun Key, is all that stands between one Player saving their line - or perishing along with the rest of the world. And only one can win.
West Bengal, India: Maccabee is Playing to win. He has Earth Key and Sky Key and he is determined to find Sun Key. But in Endgame, fate can turn in the blink of an eye. He must Play carefully. He must watch his back.
Kolkata, India: An Liu is Playing for death. His goal: stop Endgame, and take the world down with him.
Sikkim, India: For Aisling, Sarah, Jago, Shari, and Hilal, their mission is to stop Endgame. Sun Key must not be found.
No matter what they’re Playing for, all of the remaining Players have one thing in common: they will end the game, but on their own terms.
All three thrilling volumes of Endgame: The Training Diaries, prequel novellas to the New York Times bestselling Endgame series, together in one paperback bindup.
Before they were Players . . . Before the Calling . . . They trained to be selected as the one to save their ancient bloodline—and win Endgame.
Follow the Twelve through sacrifices and betrayals, broken hearts and broken bones, as they shed their normal lives and transform into the Players they were meant to be.
They must train, learn, prepare. To Play, survive, and solve. To kill or be killed.
Endgame is real. Endgame is coming. And only one can win.
