Books from the Backlog #116

 

Books from the Backlog is a fun way to feature some of those neglected books sitting on your bookshelf unread.  If you are anything like me, you might be surprised by some of the unread books hiding in your stacks. This is a fun meme hosted by Carole's Random Life in Books!

With any great change, there is always strife, and the Covenant University has become the frontline between pure-bloods who want the Breed Order reinstated and the half-bloods who want the right to control their own destinies.

"Fate has other plans."

The violence is escalating and war between the races seems inevitable, and it couldn't come at a worse time. Hyperion may be out of commission, but Josie and Seth know they have only earned a reprieve. Seth must get Josie fully prepared, which means controlling her newfound abilities, and they need to find the other demigods before the Titans do.

"But the gods are sensing a greater threat."

Only one thing is more dangerous than a bunch of starved Titans, and that's an out-of-control Apollyon. The aether in Josie is drawing Seth in deeper, and when lust mixes with love and gives way to power, he knows being close to her is not only dangerous to her, but to everyone around them, but letting her go requires a level of selflessness that just isn't Seth's style.

"The paths taken in the past are becoming the roads of the future."

Just as chaos breaks out, familiar faces from the past return, complicating the already strained bond between Josie and Seth, and when the danger from the Titans erupts with devastating consequences, the dark allure of power calls to Seth again, but this time Josie might not be able to pull him back.

"And when the struggle between power and love becomes the deadliest battleground, there may be no salvation.""

I added The Power to my TBR in March of 2016 which was when these Apollycon events started happening as I always ordered my book from the event back when you were able to do that when you couldn't get tickets. Sadly, I still can't get a ticket so it's now just a pipe dream of attending...by the time I manage a ticket none of the authors I read will be there other than Jen! It is what it is. I still want to read this series that I am massively behind on! And hopefully one day I can binge it!
