Lore
(Book)

"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 and seize their divine power and immortality. Long ago, Lore Perseous fled that brutal world, turning her back on the hunt's promises of eternal glory after her family was murdered by a rival line. For years she's been pushed away any thought of revenge against the man-now a god-responsible for their deaths. Yet as the next hunt dawn over New York City, tow participants see her out: Castor, a childhood friend Lore believed to be dead, and Thena, one of the last of the original gods, now gravely wounded. The goddess offers an alliance against their mutual enemy and, at last, a way for Lore to leave the Agon behind forever. But Lore's decision to bind her fate to Athena's and rejoin the hunt will come at a deadly cost-and still may not be enough to stop the rise of a new god with the power to bring humanity to its knees."--book jacket.
