I tend to not be a huge fan of prequel novellas, but I adored this! Even with how short it is, it did a great job explaining the basics of this fantasy world and getting me excited for the main story.

Freaking awesome!
I love love loved it and the fact that it was only 67 pages
was even better! :D it felt like a longer read but NOT in
a bad way. I can't wait to get started on "Half Blood"
and I have a feeling that I will love the first book.
also I love that the prequel/novella was available
in paperback! eBooks and me don't really go well together.
publishers should start making novellas available in paperback.

Seriously?! Unfortunately I read Half-Blood before this prequel and I find this novella unnecessary, you can still know Alex's story before she go back to Covenant even without reading this book. It just have more little details that doesn't really add anything to the series

I wasn’t a fan of this book. It is the first book that I have read in the series and I am left with so much questions. I have no idea what is going on. Plus I tend to enjoy heroines that have powers and/or fighting abilities. It left me frustrated just reading about a person running scared for the latter part of the book. No thrill, no excitement

Good prequel short story to what sounds like a promising series. I really like the way this short lead into the first book, and Alex is so far a strong lead character. Looking forward to more! :)

This is the first time I've read a Covenant book so I'm glad I have some reference before I start on Half Blood which I'm starting next.
My thoughts...Ms. Armentrout is great at characterization and creating lovable, realistic, and bad ass characters. She is great at creating atmosphere I was literally on the edge of my seat waiting for the Daimon attack I knew was inevitable. Also she did a great job of making the Daimon's evil and beings that just follow their instinct to cause pain and suffering and then eating what they played with.....I can't wait to read Half Blood which I have no doubt will be an incredible read and an adventure that will keep me riveted.
