"Every seven years, the Agon begins. As punishment for a past rebellion, nine Greek gods are forced to walk the earth as mortals, hunted by the descendants of ancient bloodlines, all eager to kill a god. Long ago, Melora Perseous fled that brutal world in the wake of her family's sadistic murder, turning her back on the hunt's promises of eternal glory. But now, two participants seek out her help; Castor, a childhood friend of Lore believed long dead; and a gravely wounded Athena, among the last of the original gods. But Lore's decision to bind her fate to Athena's and rejoin the hunt will come at a dealy cost--and may not be enough to stop the rise of a new god with the power to bring humanity to its knees."--Back cover
