Wealth. Power. Murder. Magic. The Ivy League is going straight to hell in the sequel to the smash New York Times bestseller Ninth House from #1 bestselling author Leigh Bardugo.
Find a gateway to the underworld. Steal a soul out of hell. A simple plan, except people who make this particular journey rarely come back. But Galaxy "Alex" Stern is determined to break Darlington out of purgatory--even if it costs her a future at Lethe and at Yale.
Forbidden from attempting a rescue, Alex and Dawes can´t call on the Ninth House for help, so they assemble a team of dubious allies to save the gentleman of Lethe. Together, they will have to navigate a maze of arcane texts and bizarre artifacts to uncover the societies´ most closely guarded secrets, and break every rule doing it. But when faculty members begin to die off, Alex knows these aren´t just accidents. Something deadly is at work in New Haven, and if she is going to survive, she´ll have to reckon with the monsters of her past and a darkness built into the university´s very walls.
Thick with history and packed with Bardugo´s signature twists, Hell Bent brings to life an intricate world full of magic, violence, and all too real monsters.
