Resumen del Editor

The Hematoi descend from the unions of gods and mortals, and the children of two Hematoi-pure-bloods-have godlike powers. Children of Hematoi and mortals-well, not so much. Half-bloods only have two options: Become trained Sentinels who hunt and kill daimons or become servants in the homes of the pures.

Seventeen-year-old Alexandria would rather risk her life fighting than waste it scrubbing toilets, but she may end up slumming it anyway. There are several rules that students at the Covenant must follow. Alex has problems with them all, but especially rule #1: Relationships between pures and halfs are forbidden.

Unfortunately, she's crushing hard on the totally hot pure-blood Aiden. But falling for Aiden isn't her biggest problem-staying alive long enough to graduate the Covenant and become a Sentinel is. If she fails in her duty, she faces a future worse than death or slavery: Being turned into a daimon, and being hunted by Aiden. And that would kind of suck.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Sexy, sizzling, touching, and fun." (Leigh Fallon, author of Carrier of the Mask)

A ripoff of Vampire Academy but enjoyable.

It was ok, I'm interested to see what happen next. Though the similarities between this and Vampire Academy are staggering.

Great Book!

this is the second time I listen to this book and the series I think it's well worth the time in money

Loved!!

Loved it and can't wait for the next book!! Starting the sequel right this second!

love the narrator love the author

I don’t know why people are complaining about the narrator, I chose to read this book BECAUSE of Justine Eyre. I wish she did more. The story is great also! I have yet to read a Jennifer Armentrout book that I didn’t love.

why isn’t there a bigger following for this one????

i am a huge FBAA fan so i decided to try one of JLAs older series and it did not disappoint! such a sweet romance and lively story, not near as spicy as FBAA but it was still awesome and good for younger readers i would think

Great story and narrator

I stumbled upon this book and I couldn’t be happier. The story is so good, you fall in love with the characters. This is definitely one of my favorite series of all time. Would highly recommend you give it a try!

Good Listening

I enjoyed this story very much. I recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy stories. I can't wait for the next one.

I enjoyed the story, not the performance

I found the story compelling, and enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. But I didn’t enjoy the narrator. I didn’t hate her voice for the main character (despite seeming a little too mature) but her male voices are just so unattractive. She adds this nasally yokel like accent. And I have no idea where Seth is supposed to be from. He goes from sounding Russian to French.

hard to listen to

I enjoyed the story but struggle to get through sure to the narrator. At times I had a hard time distinguishing between characters.

Love this!

This is so well written and it keeps your interest with unexpected twists and fun snarky characters. Lots of great characters and action with great story building.
