Deep beneath the world of the living lies Xibalba, the terrifying realm of the Maya Lords of Death. Long ago, two great ballplayers descended into that hidden kingdom and never returned, defeated by cruel tricks, deadly challenges, and rulers who delighted in outwitting anyone brave enough to enter their halls.

Years later, Hunahpu and Xbalanque discover the truth about their family and take up the sacred ballgame for themselves. Soon the sound of their play reaches Xibalba, and the same summons comes for them. To survive, the Hero Twins must cross dangerous rivers, expose false rulers, endure houses filled with darkness, blades, freezing cold, jaguars, fire, and bats, and face a ballgame where even the ball itself may be a weapon.

But Hunahpu and Xbalanque possess something the Lords of Death never expected: extraordinary cleverness, powerful magic, and the courage to risk everything for one another. As every new trap becomes more dangerous, the brothers begin turning Xibalba's own games against its rulers. Can the Hero Twins succeed where those before them failed and finally break the power of the Lords of Death?
