Krátky popis
A propulsive, electrifying and enraging retelling of the life
ofGreek goddess Hekate, child of war turned all-powerful goddess of
witchcraft and necromancy, by internationally bestselling poet
Nikita Gill.Born into a world on fire, Godling Hekate has never
known safety. After her parents are on the losing side of the war
between the ruling Titans and new Olympian Gods, Hekate is taken by
her mother Asteria to the Underworld, where Styx and Hades agree to
raise her. Meanwhile, Asteria is pursued across the world by Zeus
and Poseidon and, to escape their clutches, transforms herself into
an island in a stormy sea.Orphaned and alone, Hekate grows up
amongst the horrors and beauties of the Underworld, desperate to
find her divine purpose and a sense of belonging in the land of the
dead.When Hekate finally uncovers her powers and ascends to Goddess
status, she realises that even the most powerful Olympians are
terrified of her.But when immortal war breaks out again,
threatening to destroy everything from Mount Olympus to the
Underworld itself, the Goddess of witchcraft and necromancy is the
only one who can bring the deadly conflict to an end. . .ADVANCE
