This "WIR"-Wednesday I'm reading another alien-themed sci-fi novel, except this week's book is less scary-take-over-the-world-and-enslave-humans aliens and more sexy-Daemon-Black type of aliens. Yes, this "WIR"-Wednesday I'm reading...
Oblivion (Lux Series 1.5) by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Blurb:
Experience the epic love story of OBSIDIAN as told by its hero, Daemon Black…
I knew the moment Katy Swartz moved in next door, there was going to be trouble. Lots of it.
And trouble’s the last thing I need, since I’m not exactly from around here. My people arrived on Earth from Lux, a planet thirteen billion light years away. Plus, if there’s one thing I know, it’s that humans can’t be trusted. We scare them. We can do things they only dream about, and honestly, we make them look weak as hell. ‘Cuz they are.
But Kat is getting to me in ways no one else has, and I can't stop myself from wanting her—or wanting to use my powers to protect her. She makes me weak, and I’m the strongest of our kind, tasked with protecting us all. So this one simple girl…she can mean the end for us. Because the Luxen have an even bigger enemy—the Arum, and I need to stay on my game.
Falling for Katy—a human—won't just place her in danger. It could get us all killed, and that’s one thing I’ll never let happen...
Why I Chose This Book | What I Think So Far:
I love the Lux Series, so picking up this companion novel to Obsidian, told in Daemon's point of view was a no-brainer. Since finishing the Lux series I've missed Daemon's sarcastic wit and reading Oblivion solely in his perspective is even better than just seeing him in Obsidian. Daemon is protective of his loved ones, hilariously sarcastic, and naughty in the best possible way. At just a third of the way in I can already tell you that this is a must read for fans of the series!
