When we meet her it’s painfully obvious how grief has taken hold of her life. I’m a reader who enjoys character-driven stories so of course I found Lore to be the most captivating part of this story.

When they were all horribly murdered, leaving Lore alone, she decided to leave that brutal world forever. Her family was one of the last of the bloodline. She was once a part of a world full of gods as a descendent of Perseus. In the middle of New York, there is a girl named Lore who has felt more heartbreak in her life than any teenager should. 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. The goddess offers an alliance against their mutual enemy and, at last, a way for Lore to leave the Agon behind forever. Yet as the next hunt dawns over New York City, 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. For years she’s pushes away any thought of revenge against the man - now a god - responsible for their deaths. Long ago, Lore Perseous fled that brutal world in the wake of her family’s sadistic murder by a rival line, turning her back on the hunt’s promises of eternal glory. 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.
