Alex is a half-blood, the daughter of a mortal and a Hematoi: the child of a demigod. For the past three years, Alex and her mother have been running from an unnamed threat in their past, living among the mortals.

Now, the past has caught up with them and the daimons – which live to feed off the Hematoi and the half-bloods – have come for them. Alex must make a decision: face her present danger or run back to the unknown dangers of her past.

This is the Prequel in Jennifer L. Armentrout’s series The Covenant.  Like all novellas it was quite short, but very engaging. I was sucked in from the very beginning and can’t wait to read the first book Half Blood. Daimon is a book on the paranormal, but is a very different take on the supernatural world than I normally read. This was the first book I have read that is about demi gods and demons. I usually read about vampires, zombies and werewolves! This novella was a great insight into the world and life of Alex and was able to offer the background and starting point of a series. Cant wait to continue with this series!
