In Taran Matharu''s The Champion, the explosive final book in the Contender trilogy, Cade and his friends wage the ultimate battle for their livesâ"and the fate of Earth itselfâ"in the Game set by the cruel and mysterious Pantheonâ¦

Cade has managed to survive the duel with the Hydra Alphaâ"barely. But the Games are far from over.

By order of their cruel and mysterious overlord, Abaddon, Cade and his friends are sent off to war against the Greys, a humanoid race who have far surpassed humans in technology on their home planet. This attempt to move up the leaderboard, however, leads Cade to a game-changing revelation: The Pantheonâ"the millennia-old alien masterminds behind the Gamesâ"have a weakness.

With the right artifacts scavenged from the land of Acies and a heavy dose of courage and luck, Cade has exactly one chance to end their tyranny forever. But if he fails, the lives of his friendsâ"and the survival of Earth itselfâ"will be forfeit.
