Sempre in bilico tra la vita e la morte. Possibile che gli dei non siano mai soddisfatti? A questo punto avrei dovuto imparare la lezione: "Non rispondere male alle divinità. Non innamorarti del Re dell''Oltretomba. E, assolutamente, non farti trascinare in una sfida mortale divina in cui tu sei l''insignificante, maledetto premio in palio". E invece eccomi qui: intrappolata nel Tartaro, il posto peggiore in cui l''umanità possa fare tappa, costretta a misurarmi con mostri che fanno sembrare gli dei creature misericordiose. I Titani, corrotti da secoli di rabbia e distruzione, sono sigillati dietro sette antiche serrature. E indovinate un po''? Io sono la chiave. Per fuggire, dovrò sopravvivere a ogni orribile prova che mi piazzeranno davanti. Per vincere, potrei dover diventare qualcosa che gli dei non hanno mai previsto. E Ade? Sta per infrangere ogni singola regola che gli dei abbiano mai scritto. Perché per salvarmi... il dio della morte brucerà il mondo intero. Ma se io riesco a liberarmi, lo faranno anche i Titani. E a quel punto il mondo non si limiterà a soffrire: implorerà la fine.

Lyra, obyčejná úřednice z Řádu zlodějů, poklidně přežívá v San Francisku a pokouší se vyrovnat s kletbou, kterou na ni uvrhl samotný Zeus. Když je ale v nebezpečném Klání bohů vybrána jako Hádova šampionka, nezbude jí než bojovat o vlastní život. Mezi vražednými úkoly však brzy pozná, že Hádes má svá vlastní pravidla i cíle. Jenže proč si vybral právě ji? A proč jí srdce pokaždé málem vyletí z hrudi, když jí řekne „moje“? Jedno je však jasné. Smrt hodlá zvítězit za každou cenu.

Sie hat das Crucible überlebt, kann sie im Tartaros gegen die Titanen bestehen? Die mitreißende Fortsetzung des internationalen Bestsellers ›The Games Gods Play‹ Lyra hätte es eigentlich besser wissen sollen, als sie sich mit Gottheiten auf Wortgefechte eingelassen hat. Oder sich in den König der Unterwelt verliebt hat. Und trotzdem findet sie sich im Tartaros in einem göttlichen Todesmatch wieder, bei dem sie der verfluchte sterbliche Preis ist und gegen Monster antreten muss, die all ihre vorherigen Gegner barmherzig wirken lassen. Der Tartaros ist das Gefängnis der Titanen, die nach Jahrhunderten in Gefangenschaft auf Rache sinnen. Sie muss sich befreien, ohne die Titanen entkommen zu lassen und bevor Hades jede Regel bricht, die die Gottheiten je geschrieben haben. Denn um Lyra zu retten, würde der Gott der Toten die Welt in Schutt und Asche legen. »Die Liebesgeschichte, vielseitigen Charaktere und die Spannung haben The Games Gods Play zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis gemacht. Ein absolutes Muss für jeden Fan von griechischer Mythologie und prickelnder Fantasy Romance.« Jessica Wedekind von @jessiwede.books über The Games Gods Play

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. To escape, I’ll have to survive every horrifying trial they throw at me. To win, I might have to become something the gods never saw coming. Oh, and Hades? He''s about to break every rule the gods ever wrote. Because to save me...the god of death will burn the world. But if I break free? So do the Titans. And the world won’t just suffer—it''ll beg for the end. The Crucible series is best enjoyed in order.

Ikernővérem, Tabra Aryd igazi királynője. A sivatagban rejtőzik a biztos halál elől, miközben én hamis királynőként uralkodom a szörnyűséges Eidolon király mellett. Aranykalitkámból egyetlen kiút kinálkozik: Reven. Az Árnylidércem. A szerelmem. Csakhogy a benne lakozó árnyak egyre baljósabbak, egyre erősebbek. Csak idő kérdése, hogy ellene forduljanak... majd ellenem. A szökés sem hozza el a szabadságot, hiszen Eidolon megállíthatatlan seregei elől nincs menekvés. És amikor rádöbbenünk, hogy áruló rejtőzik közöttünk, nem marad más választásom: azzá a királynővé kell lennem, akinek sosem szánt a sors. Egyedül az árnyak menthetnek meg... ha előtte nem végeznek velem. Az elsöprő sikerű The Liar''s Crown - A hazug koronája folytatása az első résznél is sötétebb, feszültebb és forróbb olvasmány

GLI DEI AMANO GIOCARE CON NOI COMUNI MORTALI. E OGNI CENTO ANNI... GLIELO PERMETTIAMO. Mi chiamo Lyra Keres. E non sono mai stata una favorita degli dei. Anzi, proprio tutto il contrario. E per questo devo ringraziare Zeus, quello stronzo. Da piccola sono stata offerta dai miei genitori all''Ordine dei Ladri per estinguere i loro debiti, e ho una maledizione che pende sulla mia testa, ma sono andata avanti, con la speranza che gli dei capricciosi che ci governano dall''Olimpo non si accorgessero di me. Un''impresa tutt''altro che facile, dato che Zeus è il patrono della mia città, San Francisco. Ma ce l''ho fatta. Sono ancora qui, viva e vegeta. Tutto è cambiato però quando mi sono imbattuta in un altro dio. Il peggiore. Ade. Per la prima volta, lo spietato, volubile Re dell''Oltretomba ha deciso di prendere parte alla Sfida, il torneo a cui partecipano gli dei ogni cento anni per determinare chi di loro siederà sul trono dell''Olimpo e governerà per i successivi cento. Viene da chiedersi perché Ade abbia scelto proprio me come sua campionessa, una piccola, insignificante mortale che può vantare solo una gran dose di sarcasmo e una maledizione sulle spalle. E soprattutto perché il mio cuore batte più forte ogni volta che lui afferma che sono sua. Non ho la più pallida idea se per questo dio pericoloso e tentatore io sia una pedina, un''esca o altro ancora. Quel che so con certezza è che Ade sta giocando secondo regole tutte sue. E che la morte vince. Sempre. A ogni costo.

Reven me ha dado las sombras del rey. Intento no caer rendida ante su poder, pero las sombras luchan por apoderarse de mi cuerpo y de mi mente. Todo ha cambiado, ya nada ni nadie es lo que era. Estamos en una batalla a contrarreloj. Y Eidolon, más poderoso que nunca, hará lo que sea por vernos muertos. El futuro de nova está en nuestras manos. En la conclusión de la trilogía "Dominios", la oscuridad amenaza con invadirlo todo.

Az életem nem több egy jól kitervelt hazugságnál. Eltitkolt iker hercegnőként, másodszülöttként létezésem egyetlen célt szolgál: helyettesíteni a nővéremet, valahányszor az életére veszély leselkedik - még ha ezért a sajátommal is kell fizetnem. Életem nagy részét egy szegény, ismeretlen, rang nélküli lány álruhájában éltem, alkalmanként belebújva a hercegnő szerepébe, ha veszély ütötte fel a fejét. Egészen mostanáig. Nagyanyánk, a királynő halálát követően a kortalan Eidolon király rögvest ajándékot küldött a nővéremnek, és egy házassági ajánlatot. Szándékai őszinteségében kételkedve azt tettem, amire születtem, és titkon átvettem a nővérem helyét a koronázás előestéjén. Így történt hát, hogy amikor egy árnyalak el akarta rabolni a leendő királynőt, tévedésből engem ragadott el. Miközben minden erőmmel a menekülés lehetőségét keresem, a hazugságok lassan napvilágra kerülnek. És nem csak az én hazugságaim. Az elrablómnak, az Árnylidércnek is megvannak a saját titkai. Az uralma alatt álló árnyak szabadulásra vágynak - más arcok, más személyek, amelyek közül több is szívesen végezne velem. A tél már a falak alatt toporog, sötétség fenyeget. Az egyetlen módja a nővérem és a birodalom megmentésének, ha megölöm Eidolont... és az Árnylidércet, aki ellopta a szívemet. Az árnyak megvédenek és oltalmaznak, ha épp nem vérre szomjaznak Abigail Owen óriási sikerű fantasysorozatában.

Let the darkness rise...in the breathtaking conclusion to award-winning author Abigail Owen’s Dominions series. King Eidolon has taken everything. My throne, my Shadowraith, and even my kingdom. I am a queen with no one to rule, and a tattered army that''s not even mine. And hope is fading fast. Now the shadows who once tormented Reven live within me, hissing and wheedling—and enticing me to betray my friends. Which could be deadly for us all. Because without the guy I fell for, without Reven, I am all shadows...and no light. And the Alignment is almost upon us—the culmination of centuries that have fueled a vengeful king’s festering rage. We’re outnumbered. We’re underpowered. And even if we could unleash the trapped goddesses, they would destroy the kingdom and everything in it. The Dominions series is best enjoyed in order.

THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER HOLT Medallion award winner for Speculative Romance of 2025 Goodreads Choice Awards Romantasy nominee of 2024 “This story is my latest obsession.” —USA Today bestselling author, Devney Perry 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 Crucible series is best enjoyed in order.

My twin sister is the true queen of Aryd. She survives, hiding and clinging to life in the desert, while I reign as the false queen alongside the monstrous King Eidolon. There’s only one escape from this gilded prison: Reven. My Shadowraith. My heart. Only the shadows that he struggles to control are growing more sinister, more powerful. It’s just a matter of time before they turn on him...and on me. Even escape doesn''t mean true freedom, though, when we''re still on the run from Eidolon’s unstoppable armies. And when we discover there’s a traitor among us, I have no choice...I must become the queen I was never meant to be. Because as one evil hunts me, the other loves me more than himself. And my fate lies with both. The Dominions series is best enjoyed in order. Reading Order: Book #1 The Liar’s Crown Book #2 The Stolen Throne Book #3 The Shadows Rule All

I’ve been living under the guise of a poor, obscure girl of no standing, slipping into the palace and into the role of the true princess when danger is present.
