The Heir of War Rises - (Eighth Circle) by Katerina Speers (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Every heartbeat is a countdown to reunion-or ruin.

Torn from her sister's side, Terena Luca must recover a relic of Zeus: a lost amulet capable of toppling armies, bending gods to mortal will, and the key that will unlock the path to Sonah.

As Sonah Yahn makes her own way through the shadowed lands of Elysium-the realm once ruled by gods-she is ambushed at every turn, hunted by spies, inching ever closer to Terena...and into the empire's deadly snare.

Meanwhile, Daris Antonius, Spartan commander, is drawn to Terena in ways neither can explain. Each encounter sparks danger, desire, and the delicate balance of power, prophecy, and survival.

With the portal to Olympus at her fingertips, Terena's powers surge beyond her control. But forces greater than her obedience to Hermes are conspiring to enact a bigger plan. The gods have been gone for a thousand years-but the prophecy of their return is awakening.
