Icarus Fell (The Burning Cities Cycle) [9781682639092]

Overview

In this riveting companion to Vesuvius, two boys move to Rome after the fall of Pompeii but come face-to-face with ghosts of the past that threaten to destroy the life they’ve been working to build.

This exclusive First Edition hardcover features a luminous foiled jacket, stunning night and day illustrated endpapers, and hidden case art.

Struggling with survivor’s guilt after failing to prevent the devastating eruption at Pompeii, Loren shuts out his oracle dreams to focus on proving he can do tangible good for Rome as a senator’s assistant. But the sudden arrival of an old friend throws Loren into a vision where he receives a deadly ultimatum from a ghost he thought he'd put to rest.

Felix, a descendent of the god Mercury, has renounced his thieving past to investigate missing memories from his childhood that would allow him to unlock his divine powers. His curiosity leads him to Mercury's temple, where he discovers a figure from his past who should be dead. They might be the key to finally granting Felix his memories back, if only Felix can prove himself worthy.

With the completion of the new Colosseum looming and no psychopomp in Rome to handle the deaths it promises to bring, the veil between the spirit world and the living threatens to burst. As the walls of the arena close in, Felix and Loren must confront their trauma before the veil is torn—even if saving each other will rip them apart.

Pack your sword and chariot; you can expect more of the action, magic, and angst that you loved in Vesuvius! Perfect for fans of the meddling gods of Percy Jackson, the tragic romance of Hadestown, and the political drama of C.S. Pacat’s bestselling Dark Rise series.
