The gods want her dead...Hades will bury them. 
 
You’d think I’d have learned by now: 
Don’t mouth off to deities. 
Don’t fall for the King of the Underworld. 
And definitely don’t get dragged into a divine death match where I’m the cursed mortal prize. 
 
But here I am trapped in Tartarus, humanity’s worst pit stop, squaring off against monsters who make the gods look merciful. Titans, twisted by centuries of rage and ruin, are sealed behind seven ancient locks. 
 
And guess what? 
 
I'm the key.

The Things Gods Break

The gods love to play with us mere mortals. And every hundred years, we let them… 
 
I have never been favored by the gods. Far from it, thanks to Zeus. 
 
Living as a cursed office clerk for the Order of Thieves, I just keep my head down and hope the capricious beings who rule from Olympus won't notice me. Not an easy feat, given San Francisco is Zeus' patron city, but I make do. I survive. Until the night I tangle with a different god. 
 
The worst god. Hades. 
 
For the first time ever, the ruthless, mercurial King of the Underworld has entered the Crucible - the deadly contest the gods hold to determine a new ruler to sit on the throne of Olympus. But instead of fighting their own battles, the gods name mortals to compete in their stead. 
 
So why in the Underworld did Hades choose me - a sarcastic nobody with a curse on her shoulders - as his champion? And why does my heart trip every time he says I’m his? 
 
I don’t know if I’m a pawn, bait, or something else entirely to this dangerously tempting god. How can I, when he has more secrets than stars in the sky? 
 
Because Hades is playing by his own rules…and Death will win at any cost.

The Games Gods Play

The dead chose her. Now she has to figure out why. 
 
Eighteen-year-old Thalia Cross has spent her whole life invisible in the mountain town of Wilder, Colorado, following her grandfather's rules to stay isolated and stay safe. But when her only friend turns up as a stripped skeleton on her mountain, and the bones start whispering her name, Thalia discovers she's something called a Bone Singer—and that the dead have been waiting specifically for her. Now she's the prime suspect in a murder, falling for the deputy who arrested her, and uncovering a secret that goes deeper than anyone in Wilder is prepared for.

The Bone Singer

Don't miss the exhilarating conclusion to the instant #1 New York Times bestselling series. This is Percy Jackson for adults with a slow burn romance between a contestant and Hades himself.
