I loved this book! There is plenty of action, some twists that will keep you guessing, a few swoons, and Greek gods...I flew through this one just to see what was going to happen.

Every seven years, the Agon begins. This is the time where nine Greek gods are forced to walk the earth as mortals and are hunted by the descendants of ancient bloodlines. If someone does, they seize the god's power and immortality.

Enter Lore. She has hidden herself from this world when a rival line murdered her family but now that the hunt is in New York City, she is being contacted by Castor, a childhood friend, and Athena, one of the last original gods. When Lore agrees to an alliance with Athena things become tricky.

As Lore falls back into her old world, she comes to realize she doesn't know who she can trust and believe me when I tell you, the entire time I was reading this book, I was second guessing everyone who was involved right alongside of her.

I enjoyed the flashbacks that Bracken included to not only provide context of Lore's background but it was great to better understand her relationship with Castor as well.

This was a great story and I love that it was a standalone too! If you're looking for a book with plenty of action, well developed characters, and an interesting story...grab this one up!

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the copy in exchange for an honest review.
