Enter the world of Covenant... Alex has Awoken and become the Apollyon. She has connected with Seth and now the thing she feared most has happened: her true self has been lost. But love is stronger than fate, and Aiden St. Delphi will do anything to break the connection and get Alex back. And then there's the fact that the whole Alex-and-Seth combination is pretty dangerous: if Seth drains Alex of her power, he'll become the God Killer and the most powerful being on the planet. The one person needed to stop the impending destruction has been dead for centuries - and Alex will have to search for him in the Underworld. Finding her way into the Underworld to search for one soul among countless millions will be hard enough. Returning will be even harder. Alex needs to prevent Seth from becoming the God Killer...but the cost will be higher than she ever imagined.

Apollyon (The Fourth Covenant Novel)

Lana Aaron

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.

My thoughts are messy right now. Blown away. Give me Sentinel - even if I won't be ready. Like, ever.

Finished this at 3 in the morning. It was so good though! Reading more and more about what Alex has to do I know this ending is going to hurt! Then guessing the Gods was amazing. At one point I did think I was wrong but then boom! Plot twist I was right! It’s coming to the end and I don’t wanna finish this series but I need to know.

awesome book my review below

Definitely my least favorite of the series. I enjoyed the actual story but some of the conversations were really forced. I also didn't care for how quickly Alex jumped between emotions. I have hope for the final book in the series though.

Hit a lull 3/4 of the way thru but I feel it was probably needed given there has been SO much going on. Great ending, excited for the last one but sad it’s almost over.

“Whatever you do, don't break my brother's heart. You are his world. And if you leave it, it will destroy him.”
Stars: 5/5
Characters: 4/5
Setting: 5/5
Plot: 5/5
Pros: greek mythology, romance, action
Cons: predictable sometimes
This book was really emotional and heartbreaking. I hate seeing Alex struggle with the connection between Seth, and seeing Aiden fighting to save Alex was everything I ever wanted. 
Seth needs to do a lot of good things for his redemption, there is no excuse for what he did.

           As always, an amazing book by Jennifer Armentrout, I loved Apollyon so much! Finally finally Aiden and Alex can be together! They are together throughout the whole book and I love they can be open about it now. I wasn't expecting the last quarter of the book! The end! that fight! and who the God is! How could we miss that! I was expecting more and then bam! acknowledgements it was not a huuge cliffhanger but still. I can not wait for Sentinel, I'll go crazy really I need more Alex and Aiden and everyone else. I can't believe there's only one book left! such an amazing series!

This book shows just how far the characters have come, the development is so apparent in this book which makes it more heart wrenching. I forget how good this one is, I think it’s my favourite.

I loved the writting, as always, fun, intereresting and with enough detail. Though at first it didn't caught my attention as much as the previous books, by the middle things really start to get INTERESTING. ;D Trust me.

So, I think this is going to be my first review that I’m doing by myself, and sadly, it’s not for a book that I am crazy ecstatic about. I mean, it’s not for a book that loved with my whole heart, but the book was still pretty good. Apollyon was fun to read. There were exciting parts, and then there were s l o w parts. And honestly, the slow parts were probably why I started reading other books in the middle of reading Apollyon. Which is a VERY BAD THING for me. Because guess what I decided to read instead of Apollyon? Perfect Scoundrels. Eleanor & Park. This Girl. So can you blame me for taking almost 3 weeks to finish Apollyon? No, you cannot. Because those books I just named are perfect and amazing and became some of my very favorite books ever. (So go read them if you haven’t!!!)

I don’t usually stop reading in the middle of the book. It’s just not me. I can’t really concentrate on a book if I’m also in the middle other stories, so it was unusual for me to just STOP and wait 2-3 weeks to finish Apollyon up. I NEVER take that long to read a book. Usually I can finish in less that 3 days but since it’s school, I take around a week. *sniffles* But the book ended up dragging in parts where it could have been more exciting, and I just DIDN’T want to read it. And once I started it up again, I could never fully immerse myself into the book either. I kept reading it bit by bit instead of all the way through, and that just made the whole reading experience not as good as it could have been. BUT, I still think that even if I had read Apollyon straight through without interruptions, the book wouldn’t have been as good as the previous books in the series. I was expecting Apollyon to be a lot better, since I was so excited to read it after the MAJOR cliffhanger at the end of the 3rd book, but I ended up being a bit disappointed.

There’s nothing I can really say without spoiling anything that’s been happening in the ENTIRE series, since Apollyon is the 4th book, so I’ll just say the basics. Alex, the heroine, grows so much throughout the entire series, but I think it’s in this book that she truly shows how much she’s matured from being a feisty, impulsive girl to one who finally thinks all (well, most) of her actions through. The world is pretty much in chaos with the gods at war, so I was glad that Alex and Aiden were able to have some happy moments, but the romance aspect of Apollyon definitely was not the main part. Which was a bit disappointing, since Aiden is a fantastic character, but it was reasonable, since the romance between them was focused more in the first few books and their relationship is as steady as it can be now in the 4th book.

So overall, I enjoyed Apollyon, but expected it be better. But I am still crazy excited for the next and final (!!) book to come out! Can’t wait to see how it all ends. (Hopefully everything will be resolved and a ton of people don’t need to die anymore. Oops. Was that a spoiler? Oh well.)
