Daimon by Jennifer L. Armentrout
In this captivating prequel to Half-Blood, Armentrout does a beautiful job of describing Alexandria's view of the world as a half-blood. From beginning to end her beginning story gets us ready for the first novel, Half-Blood which comes out September 15. All I can say is "OMG!" I loved it! The story introduces readers to the main character Alexandria “Alex” Andros, a half-blood descendent of the gods, who, with her mother, a pure-blood, has been on the run for three years, hiding from the Covenant and from the daimons who exist on the aether of pure-bloods. The story gives us the insight through Alex's life as she goes through life after the Covenant. She has been running with her mother. We get though some descriptions that Alex has a crush on someone with his eyes! The Daimons, where very well put together and I love the novella because it gets us ready for the first novel. I even cried at some parts during the read:) and that's not an easy thing ...
