Book Description:
In a modern
world ruled by territorial Greek gods, the human race has been oppressed,
exploited and now, nearly destroyed by the constant infighting of gods.
However, a human girl with the power of a goddess is coming of age. Alessandra is the Oracle of Delphi – the last prophesized – and bears the mark of the double omega. Soon after she turns eighteen, Alessandra is told her destiny: to step between the warring gods and the human race and save her world from certain ruin.
For the gods,
her appearance marks the beginning of the end – their end. They and the
Triumvirate – leaders of the human elite – who serve them will stop at nothing
to preserve their power.
Alessandra
emerges from the forest where she spent her life hidden from gods and men and
immediately plummets into a race against time, gods, and herself to discover
who and what she is in a world where everyone she meets has a hidden agenda,
and those pulling the strings remain in the shadows.
Before she can
determine exactly what kind of savior her world needs, she must first master
her power by completing three trials devised by the Triumvirate to enslave her.
One lone girl
stands between warring gods and the people she’s destined to protect, but it’s
the battle to understand who she is that she must win first.
My Take:
Chills.
I love
reading, just like you all. Every once in a while you come across a book that
reminds you why you fell in love with reading in the first place. A story that
takes you on an epic adventure filled with love, friendship, betrayal, growth,
discovery and heartbreak. Omega is that book.
I love Lizzy Ford.
She writes great books. I own at least one book in every series she's written.
The Omega Beginnings is one of my favorites. I've read all 8 and I loved almost
every character with the exception of 2. Two characters completely entwined in
a way only a father and son could be. Only 1 character redeemed himself. But it
seems 2 other beloved characters had to become monsters for him to become
great.
I absolutely
hated reading how far these characters had fallen in twelve years. I hated
reading what monsters they had become. I felt sick. It felt like such a deep
betrayal... And that made me love this book even more. It made me feel. I was
invested in these characters and their story. I needed to know why they
changed. I wanted to slap sense into them.
I loved
reading how strong Alessandra had become and seeing that she didn't lose her
attitude. The interactions between her and Adonis made me swoon.
Greek
mythology has always been a favorite of mine but this took if to a whole new
level. I'm literally teaming with excitement, I need to read Theta, book 2 in
the series, and I'm an impatient woman by nature lol so 2016 seems like too
long a wait.
The characters
in this tale are strong and very independent… both the good and the bad and the
women are not only intriguing but very self-sufficient so that most definitely
calls out to the tough girl in me.
5
Quills
An epic book
with epic characters that I can’t compare to anything I've ever read. This is
most definitely a series I'll enjoy exploring.
