February 2014 Book of the Month  Best-selling Michelle Paver, creator of the Wolf Brother series, continues her equally richly created and atmospheric Gods and Warriors series set in the sun-baked Greek countryside. Although separated by a wide social gulf, Hylas the Outsider and Pirra the daughter of the High Priestess have become friends. Now Hylas, imprisoned by slavers, is working in the mines. He has to escape before his vicious enemies the Crows find out where he is. Pirra has always promised she would help Hylas escape but can she reach him? And can the two of them survive especially if the gods are against them? Despite danger at every turn Hylas and Pirra together with an orphaned lion cub continue to pursue their destiny. 

reader reviews

In addition to our Lovereading expert opinion for the first book in the series, The Outsiders, a small number of children were lucky enough to be invited to review this title. Here's a taster....'This gripping historical adventure story would suit all adventure lovers with an interest in mythology. I loved it and found it similar to the Percy Jackson books.'
