The second in a dystopian thriller series, where modern-day recruits compete in an ancient fight to the death in the streets of Edinburgh.

New Season. New Rules. Same deadly game...

The Pantheon Games are the biggest underground event in the world, followed by millions online. New recruits must leave behind their twenty-first century lives and vie for dominance in a gruelling battle to the death armed only with ancient weapons - and their wits.

Last season's new recruits Tyler and Lana have lived to fight another day, but now they face a series of even more lethal clashes before the Grand Battle that will bring the Season to a close.

It's survival of the fittest in the most brutal fashion imaginable. As they race toward the bloody end, Lana must finally face the demons of her past, and Tyler will have to fight with the mother of all targets on his back...

Squid Game meets The Hunger Games in this fast-paced, action-packed thriller series.

Praise for the Pantheon series:

'A brilliant eccentric concept which hits you like a fever dream.' Giles Kristian


About the author

C.F. Barrington seems to be meandering north. Born in Southampton and raised in Hertfordshire, he moved to Cumbria in his thirties and then Fife in his forties. He worries that his life now mirrors his spaniel's: running like mad over hills in the mornings; eating biscuits at his desk most afternoons; then sleeping in front of the television (though not with his paws in the air). He is the author of the Pantheon thriller series which tells of a deadly game featuring a cast of characters fighting for their lives on the rooftops of Edinburgh. The first book, The Wolf Mile, was published in 2021.
