The Blood Moon marks the start of the Immortal Games. The Gods of
Olympus randomly select humans as their tokens and then gamble with
their lives. The stakes are high and survival is unlikely.
16-year-old Ara is seeking revenge on the Gods for allowing her
sister to die in the games. She's determined to be selected as a
token, but when she is, she realizes that it isn't just her life at
stake, but also her heart. With the odds stacked against her, it
will take an unlikely hero to twist her rage into something much
more complicated. Ara is playing in the games of life and death...
and love. What will she sacrifice?

Games and Lore. "A thrilling, fast-paced, and brutal tale of
revenge, loyalty, courage, and friendship. Avery has created a
world that is merciless in its cruelty and trickery, and a cast of
gods who revel in causing chaos, but Ara, a heroine full of heart,
is more than a match for even the wickedest of them." - Melinda

their Tokens. The stakes are high; the Gods covet entertainment and
glory above all else, for the Tokens, it's about survival.

older sister to die in the Games. She's determined to be selected

when she's plucked from the clutches of death by Hades, God of the
Underworld, the odds are stacked against her. Hades is the outcast
of the Gods, and the only one who has never won the games. But he
soon realises that Ara does not fear death, just as she does not
fear him, and when a wager with Zeus and Poseidon puts both their
futures at stake, the games take on a new meaning. With each
challenge, the games become more brutal. Can Ara put aside her rage
and survive? For fans of Circe, Ariadne and The Silence of the
Girls. Perfectly plotted Greek Mythology and Astrology makes this
the perfect YA for BookTok. Cover stunningly illustrated by
