Nyx

The instant #1 New York Times bestselling series!

This richly imagined retelling of the Greek myth of Nyx, goddess of the underworld, is an immersive novel-in-verse from world-renowned poet Nikita Gill. Perfect for fans of Madeline Miller and Alexandra Bracken.

Born from darkness at the dawn of creation, Nyx was feared by her own mother and cast to the edge of the universe. While Kaos builds worlds of light, Nyx shapes black holes, shadows and death itself. Her only solace is her bond with her sister Gaia, until pride tears them apart.

Retreating into the depths of the earth, Nyx forges the Underworld, building a realm ruled solely by her will. But when the rise of the Olympians threatens her children, she is forced back into the divine arena she had previously abandoned.

As Zeus tightens his grip on the cosmos, Nyx draws an army of ancient gods and horrors long forgotten, and a final war looms—one that will pit darkness against light, mother against child, and threatens to unmake the universe itself…

In this stunningly intimate reimagining of a Greek myth, internationally renowned poet Nikita Gill showcases the underworld and its chthonic deities in all their glory, and weaves a gripping story about the Goddess Nyx overcoming solitude and redefining her purpose.
