"Daemon will do anything to get Katy back.

After the successful but disastrous raid on Mount Weather, he’s facing the impossible. Katy is gone. Taken. Everything becomes about finding her. Taking out anyone who stands in his way? Done. Burning down the whole world to save her? Gladly. Exposing his alien race to the world? With pleasure.

All Katy can do is survive.

Surrounded by enemies, the only way she can come out of this is to adapt. After all, there are sides of Daedalus that don’t seem entirely crazy, but the group’s goals are frightening and the truths they speak even more disturbing. Who are the real bad guys? Daedalus? Mankind? Or the Luxen?

Together, they can face anything. 

But the most dangerous foe has been there all along, and when the truths are exposed and the lies come crumbling down, which side will Daemon and Katy be standing on? 

And will they even be together?"

Summary taken from Goodreads

Okay, regardless if you read the summary or not, I can still convey how deeply I love this series. I started the first book, Obsidian, earlier this year and by the end of the following week, I had caught up on the whole series. During the school year. That's a huge deal for me! Jennifer L. Armentrout is a writing machine because she publishes books so often, but I find her writing so addictive. Personally, this series is my favourite of her novels, but I have yet to read all of them. Though this series is a supernatural one, I hope you contemporary fans don't shy away from it! It's well written and the story is superb, just all around a great series! On the other hand, I'm not too fond of the cover as I personally find it to be too romance novel-y.  Needless to say, however, that I cannot wait for the next installment (the second last one!). Anyways, read this series. NOW. DOOOO ITTT!

PS. This is the guy on the cover. His name is Pepe Toth and he's a perfect representation of the love interest in this series, Daemon!

What books are you waiting on?
