The Sunbearer Trials – ISBN: 9781035008612

Welcome to The Sunbearer Trials, where teen semidioses compete in a series of challenges with the highest of stakes, in this electric new Mexican-inspired fantasy from Aiden Thomas, the New York Times bestselling author of Cemetery Boys.

As each new decade begins, the Sunā€™s power must be replenished so that Sol can keep traveling along the sky and keep the evil Obsidian gods at bay. Ten semidioses between the ages of thirteen and eighteen are selected by Sol himself as the most worthy to compete in The Sunbearer Trials. The winner carries light and life to all the temples of Reino del Sol, but the loser has the greatest honor of allā€•they will be sacrificed to Sol, their body used to fuel the Sun Stones that will protect the people of Reino del Sol for the next ten years.

Teo, a 17-year-old Jade semidiĆ³s and the trans son of Quetzal, goddess of birds, has never worried about the Trialsā€¦or rather, heā€™s only worried for others. His best friend Niyaā€•daughter of Tierra, the god of earthā€•is one of the strongest heroes of their generation and is much too likely to be chosen this year. He also canā€™t help but worry (reluctantly, and under protest) for Aurelio, a powerful Gold semidiĆ³s and Teoā€™s friend-turned-rival who is a shoo-in for the Trials. Teo wouldnā€™t mind taking Aurelio down a notch or two, but a one-in-ten chance of death is a bit too close for Teoā€™s taste.

But then, for the first time in over a century, Sol chooses a semidiĆ³s who isnā€™t a Gold. In fact, he chooses two: Xio, the 13-year-old child of Mala Suerte, god of bad luck, andā€¦Teo. Now they must compete in five mysterious trials, against opponents who are both more powerful and better trained, for fame, glory, and their own survival.
