Vesuvius

Felix is a cunning thief. Loren is a temple attendant. Thrown together, the boys have to piece together their fates to make it out of a burning city. A stunning queer YA fantasy debut set in ancient Pompeii, for fans of THEY BOTH DIE AT THE END, ALL THAT''S LEFT IN THE WORLD and LIES WE SING TO THE SEA. Give him your heart. Grasp your destiny. Get out alive. Clever thief Felix seizes an opportunity to steal a helmet in Pompeii. But as he''s chased by a mysterious patrician, Felix discovers the helmet is not only a priceless artefact but a relic of the god Mercury. When Felix touches it, pieces of his forgotten past begin to simmer. Loren, an aspiring councilman and temple attendant, is plagued by nightmares of Pompeii''s destruction. Nightmares that feature Felix, who stumbles into Loren''s temple as an earthquake rocks the city. Loren knows they have mere days to uncover Felix''s ties to the relic and to Loren''s own dreams if they have any hope of saving Pompeii from the boiling fury of Mount Vesuvius. But the Ancient Roman world is ruled by bloody politics and unstoppable destinies, with dangerous, desperate people lurking in every shadow. Felix and Loren will have to piece together their fates - and their growing feelings for one another - to make it out of a burning city alive.
