Squid Game meets The Hunger Games in the final gripping instalment of a fastpaced, action-packed Scottish thriller series where recruits compete in a fight to the death in the streets of Edinburgh. THE GAME From the beginning, The Pantheon has been a secret society of bloodshed and order. Modernday gladiators abandon their lives, fall into rank and battle to the death – cheered on and funded by online watchers. THE PLAYER Tyler Maitland was recruited to fight in the Games, but his real ambition is finding his missing sister – even if it means bringing down The Pantheon for good. THE END The start of the Twentieth Season delivers never-before-matched teams to the fields of eastern Europe, where a hidden force will blow the truth of the Games wide open, once and for all... THE FINAL SEASON STARTS NOW. Discover The Pantheon, perfect for dystopian fiction fans who loved The Hunger Games and Chain-Gang All-Stars. Praise for the Pantheon series: 'The moment you ask yourself if it could just be true, the story has you.' Anthony Riches 'So gripping I sometimes find myself holding my breath while I'm reading!' Ruth Hogan 'A brilliant eccentric concept which hits you like a fever dream.' Giles Kristian 'Gripping and original – a terrific read!' Joe Heap 'A thrilling ride... C.F. Barrington knocks it out of the park.' Matthew Harffy
Well... I spent probably twenty years intending to write a novel, but that darn thing called 'life' kept getting in the way. My career eventually took me to Edinburgh - to work at the zoo, of all places! When I finally tired of having meerkats outside the office and fielding endless media enquiries about the rumoured birth of a baby panda, I retreated to a quiet desk beside the Forth and dreamed up the Pantheon saga. I couldn't have done it without Edinburgh. Only such a dark, historical, claustrophobic place like the Old Town could have inspired crazy ideas about Hoplites on the rooftops and Vikings in the tunnels. Every time my storylines are struggling, I take myself back into the city and stand in the Closes off the Royal Mile, letting the atmosphere permeate my thoughts.
