Two teenage boys are lost in Minnesota's rugged Boundary Waters wilderness area. While struggling to survive, they're sucked into the plots of two so-called fiction novels that one of the boys has read. Every direction they turn leads them deeper into the wilderness and into the extraordinary secrets and dangers encompassing the books' plots. Perilously tangled up in mystery, magic and suspense, the boys weave their way toward the books' mystical island of Olyqua where they must face the ultimate conflict between the forces of good and evil. Is it real? That's the plaguing question as supernatural events get in their way and unknown forces try to stop them.

From the #1 New York Times best-selling author of The Darkest Minds comes a sweepingly ambitious, high-octane tale of power, destiny, love, and redemption. Every seven years, the Agon begins. As punishment for a past rebellion, nine Greek gods are forced to walk the earth as mortals. They are 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 pushed away any thought of revenge against the man—now a god—responsible for their deaths. Yet as the next hunt dawns over New York City, two participants seek her out: Castor, a childhood friend Lore believed to be dead, and Athena, one of the last of the original gods, now gravely wounded. The goddess offers an alliance against their mutual enemy and a way to leave the Agon behind forever. But Lore's decision to rejoin the hunt, binding her fate to Athena's, will come at a deadly cost—and it may not be enough to stop the rise of a new god with the power to bring humanity to its knees.
