— Darkest Sins
“I was drawn to Half-Blood like a daimon to aether. Alex is one of the best heroines I have come across this year. She is kick-ass and drives the plot with her witty quips and strong personality... I would recommend Half-Blood to anyone who is looking for a story with a strong female protagonist, an intricate world with descendents of gods, daimons, hierarchy and oppression, a little romance and some kick-butt action.”
— Quill Café
“Jennifer L. Armentrout creates a very original story line to Greek mythology so this is absolutely one series that you do not want to miss! From all the daimon killings to all the heart-pounding OMGs, this is one debut that will rock you off your toes! Make sure you strap in extra hard because this is one heck of a ride!”
— Books Over Boys
“Half-Blood is a grip-you-by-the-wrists rollercoaster ride. From the first word to the last, it’s not only cleverly entertaining, but deathly dark. Paced with precision, the story unfolds gradually to the perfect end, filled with unanswered questions and a desperate longing.”
— Writing Jewels
“Nothing short of an absolutely amazing read.”
— Omnom Books
