Lore by Alexandra Bracken

Young Adult

Lore is a warrior, born into a long line of warriors. She is also the last of her line, the Persius line. All she wants is to avenge her family’s death and end the Agon. The Agon occurs every seven years when the gods become mortal for a week and hunters (warriors) try to kill them so they can take their place. Lore wants nothing of this. She wants to live her life in peace and not have to look over her shoulder every seventh year.
Opinion
Holy hot tamales Batman! This book was all engrossing. Even though this book was longer than the year 2020, it was well worth the read. I personally loved the live tension between Lore and Castor. There were also so many twists in the book that I’d advise you to keep notes so you can keep up. This author has an awesome mind to have been able to conceive of a book like this. I’d love to reread this story through other perspectives!
Many thanks to Net Galley for providing me with an ARC of this book.
