For three years, Alexandria has lived among mortals - pretending to be like them and trying to forget the duty she'd been trained to fulfil as a child of a mortal and a demigod. At seventeen, she's pretty much accepted that she's a freak by mortal standards... and that she'll never be prepared for that duty. According to her mother, that's a good thing. But as every descendent of the gods knows, Fate has a way of rearing her ugly head. A horrifying attack forces Alex to flee Miami and try to find her way back to the very place her mother had warned her she should never return - the Covenant. Every step that brings her closer to safety is one more step toward death... because she's being hunted by the very creatures she'd once trained to kill. The daimons have found her.

I really really liked this book. It's a prequel to the Covenant Series of about 80pp or so. This is a brand new author and I must say that I am quite impressed.
We are introduced to seventeen year old Alexandria(Alex), a Half-Blood, and her Hematoi mother. Hematoi are children of gods and mortals, children of two Hematoi's are Pure- Bloods with god-like powers and half-bloods are children of a Hematoi and mortal with not so god-like powers. Alex and her mother run away from the Covenant, a place where the Hematoi live and train their Pure-Bloods and Half-Bloods alike to protect the Hematoi. Something tragic occurs and we are introduced to Daimons, Pure bloods who had become a type of vampire...
I will leave you to read the FREE prequel so that you can get the rest of the details. I loved the whole gods/mortal/pure bloods/half bloods focus. Something that kept me hooked was that it wasn't a story about vampires or the fae. This book has humor, wit, sadness, action and hints at a possible romance to be seen later in the series.
The first book Half-Blood will not be released until September 2011 which kind of sucks because I'm definitely hooked and will have to wait until then.
Note to author: There were a few spelling mistakes but great job so far!
