Fox joins sister company HarperCollins, which bought publishing rights. Here is what the book\u2019s about: In a world similar to Earth, there are 12 bloodlines, or races. Each bloodline has a champion between the ages of 13 and 17 who is trained as a warrior and is always ready to do battle. When they turn 18, the teen warrior behind them gets promoted. This has been the case for hundreds of years, but no one remembers why \u2014 they\u2019re always ready for some sort of battle to take place, but it never does. But the tradition continues. And then one day they\u2019re called to fight, and all the bloodlines but the winners will be exterminated. They\u2019re fighting to be the last race.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.deadline.com\/tag\/wme\" target=\"_blank\">WME<\/a>\u00a0brokered.<\/p>\n<p><strong>EARLIER EXCLUSIVE, 2:56 pm PST:<\/strong>\u00a0In the first bidding battle of the new year, Fox and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.deadline.com\/tag\/warner-bros\" target=\"_blank\">Warner Bros<\/a>\u00a0are going hot and heavy over\u00a0<em>Endgame<\/em>, a\u00a0<em>Hunger Games<\/em>-type young-adult novel by James Frey.<\/p>\n<p>[ <a href=\"http:\/\/www.deadline.com\/2014\/01\/james-frey-endgame-movie-fox-warner-bros\/\" target=\"_blank\">click to continue reading at Deadline.com<\/a> ]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>from Deadline Hollywood Fox Takes James Frey\u2019s \u2018Endgame\u2019 In Year\u2019s First 7-Figure Deal With Google In The Mix By\u00a0MIKE FLEMING JR UPDATED: 9:48 PM:\u00a0Fox\u00a0landed James Frey\u2019s\u00a0Endgame, and the deal was around $2 million with Temple Hill partners Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen.
