6/6/2023 0 Comments Lore alexandra bracken seriesThis book’s greatest strength is its worldbuilding. However, when a childhood friend and an ancient god both seek out her help, she finds herself pulled right back in, and right at the start of the new Agon. Our protagonist, Lore, left this world years ago. During that time, known as the Agon, they are hunted by the descendants of great heroes, who all know that killing a god means taking their power and becoming a new god. Lore takes place in a world where, every seven years, nine Greek gods become mortal for a week. I’m pleased to report that while Lore didn’t wow me, it was an enjoyable read that I think will appeal to fans of the author’s work, and to anyone nostalgic for the Hunger Games era of YA literature. The Darkest Minds was one of my favourite book series back in the early-mid 2010s, and I’ve liked everything else that Bracken has put out, though I’ll admit nothing has quite compared to that breakout series. Make sure to check out the book when it comes out January 5th!Īs a longtime fan of Alexandra Bracken’s, I’ve had Lore saved as an anticipated 2021 release pretty much since it was first announced. I received an advanced copy of Lore from NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.
