Waiting On Wednesday: Apollyon by @jlarmentrout

This week my Waiting on Wednesday pick is Apollyon by Jennifer L. Armentrout. If you’re not reading the Covenant series, you need to start. Deity, book 3 in this series, was by far my favorite but I absolutely love the characters that Armentrout has created here and where book 3 left off just about scarred me for life. Thankfully we got a glimpse into what comes next in the short story Elixir (told from Aiden’s POV *sigh*) to tide us over until book 4 is released. It can’t come fast enough if you ask me!

Apollyon (Covenant Series book 4)

By: Jennifer L. Armentrout

Publication Date: April 9th, 2013

Fate isn’t something to mess with… and now, neither is Alex.

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.

What are you waiting for this week?
