Seventeen-year-old half-blood Alex finds herself not only crushing on a forbidden pure-blood, but in danger of staying alive long enough to graduate the Covenant and becoming a daimon-hunting Sentinel.

Alex has always feared two things: losing herself in the Awakening and being placed on the Elixir. But love has always been stronger than Fate, and Aiden St. Delphi is willing to make war on the gods—and Alex herself—to bring her back.The gods have killed thousands and could destroy entire cities in their quest to stop Seth from taking Alex’s power and becoming the all-powerful God Killer. But breaking Alex’s connection to Seth isn’t the only problem. There are a few pesky little loopholes in the whole “an Apollyon can’t be killed” theory, and the only person who might know how to stop the destruction has been dead for centuries.Finding their way past the barriers that guard the Underworld, searching for one soul among countless millions, and then somehow returning will be hard enough. Alex might be able to keep Seth from becoming the God Killer… or she might become the God Killer herself.

Five young Minecraft players in the real world find themselves transported inside the game they love. But now it's not a game-and they will have to use everything they know to explore, build, and survive! This illustrated series will thrill and engage fans of Minecraft and action-packed fantasy stories alike.

"History is on repeat, and things didn't go so well the last time. Alexandria isn't sure she's going to make it to her eighteenth birthday--to her Awakening. A long-forgotten, fanatical order is out to kill her, and if the Council ever discovers what she did in the Catskills, she's a goner... and so is Aiden. If that's not freaky enough, whenever Alex and Seth spend time "training"--which really is just Seth's code word for some up-close and personal one-on-one time--she ends up with another mark of the Apollyon, which brings her one step closer to Awakening ahead of schedule. Awesome. But as her birthday draws near, her entire world shatters with a startling revelation and she's caught between love and Fate. One will do anything to protect her. One has been lying to her since the beginning. Once the gods have revealed themselves, unleashing their wrath, lives will be irrevocably changed... and destroyed. Those left standing will discover if love is truly greater than Fate.."--

Essere destinata a diventare una specie di fonte di energia soprannaturale non è esattamente quello che Alexandria sognava nella vita. Neanche se i suoi poteri servono a Seth, l'Apollyon, il più potente dei Mezzosangue, nonché... la sua ombra. Seth non la lascia un momento: la segue durante gli allenamenti, l'aspetta alla fine delle lezioni, compare persino nella sua camera da letto. È vero che la sua presenza ha anche degli effetti benefici - per esempio, con lui accanto Alex non ha più gli incubi terribili del tragico confronto con la madre - ma non ha alcuna influenza sui sentimenti fortissimi e proibiti che prova per il Puro Aiden... e nemmeno su ciò che lui è disposto a fare, e a sacrificare, per lei. Quando i daimon penetrano nel Covenant e attaccano gli studenti, gli dei inviano le Furie, divinità minori determinate a distruggere ogni pericolo per la scuola, incluso l'Apollyon e... Alex. E come se avere a che fare con un'orda di mostri dell'etere non fosse abbastanza, un'altra misteriosa minaccia incombe su di loro: qualcosa, o qualcuno, vuole neutralizzare Seth, anche se questo significa rendere schiava Alex o addirittura ucciderla. Ma quando ci sono di mezzo gli dei, semplicemente alcune decisioni non possono essere cambiate. Per nessun motivo.

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.
