Half-bloods only have two options: become trained Sentinels who hunt and kill daimons or become servants in the homes of the pures. Children of Hematoi and mortals–well, not so much. The Hematoi descend from the unions of gods and mortals, and the children of two Hematoi pure bloods have godlike powers. I’d recommend reading it before starting, but again, you do not have to! Every step that brings her closer to safety is one more step toward death… because she’s being hunted by the very creatures she’d once trained to kill.Īs this is a prequel, it’s not a favorite, but I’m always excited about extra content! You definitely don’t need to read this before starting the series, it’s background, extra, adding to the story. A horrifying attack forces Alex to flee Miami and try to find her way back to the very place her mother had warned her she should never return-the Covenant. At seventeen, she’s pretty much accepted that she’s a freak by mortal standards… and that she’ll never be prepared for that duty.Īccording to her mother, that’s a good thing.īut as every descendant of the gods knows, Fate has a way of rearing her ugly head. Let’s start at the beginning of the series:įor three years, Alexandria has lived among mortals-pretending to be like them and trying to forget the duty she’d been trained to fulfill as a child of a mortal and a demigod. These aren’t necessarily be mini-reviews, or anything, because I’ll be honest, it’s been a few weeks, and I’m behind on my reviews, and I more or less just wanted to briefly gush about the books and introduce them! If you liked The Vampire Academy Series by Richelle Meade, you’ll definitely love this series. I always tell people they should read the series because it’s fun, original and the characters are great. It had been years, since the books releases, since I had read the series, and it was so fun being back in Alex and Aiden’s world, and they are still two of my favorite characters. Then I decided to ignore every new book I owned and needed to read to go for something comforting, familiar. Maas I was in a huge slump and didn’t know what to read, didn’t want to read anything, I was kind of spiraling downwards. I’ve pretty much read everything she’s written, so it’s really easy to pick up a book and know I’m going to love it.Īfter I read Kingdom of Ash by Sarah J.


Jennifer Armentrout is an auto-buy author for me, and whenever I’m in a reading slump, I tend to turn to her. This is one of my all-time favorite series, and I’m so glad I finally got around to re-reading them.
