Four years ago, Scarlet Fielder died. Hours later, she is resurrected, along with twelve other children. They come back to life Leviathan, immortal, shape-shifting monsters, created for the sole purpose of killing other Immortals. The creature responsible is Tiamat, an Immortal sorceress, who nine thousand years ago tried to wipe out the rest of her kind, failed, and was left imprisoned, only to continue breeding an army of monsters in the heart of a volcano. When other Immortals rescue the thirteen children from Tiamat, Scarlet enters a world which belongs to the creatures of myth—a society of inequality, violence, and mistrust, where ancient feuds refuse to die. Then, an eight-thousand-year-old trickster named Loki takes a sudden and inexplicable interest in Scarlet. And worst of all, at long last, Tiamat breaks free from her prison to unleash an army of brainwashed Leviathan. When newly freed Tiamat calls all the Leviathan to her, Scarlet alone escapes her creator’s mind control. But why? Loki, clearly knows more than he’ll say, but how much? And how far might Scarlet and Loki go to save the rest of the Leviathan, and Earth, before they are lost to Tiamat forever?
