Daemon will do anything to get Katy back.

After the successful but disastrous raid on Mount Weather, he’s facing the impossible. Katy is gone. Taken. Everything becomes about finding her. Taking out anyone who stands in his way? Done. Burning down the whole world to save her? Gladly. Exposing his alien race to the world? With pleasure.

All Katy can do is survive.

Surrounded by enemies, the only way she can come out of this is to adapt. After all, there are sides of Daedalus that don’t seem entirely crazy, but the group’s goals are frightening and the truths they speak even more disturbing. Who are the real bad guys? Daedalus? Mankind? Or the Luxen?

Together, they can face anything.

But the most dangerous foe has been there all along, and when the truths are exposed and the lies come crumbling down, which side will Daemon and Katy be standing on? And will they even be together?

Jennifer L. Armentrout

Jennifer L. Armentrout

Jennifer L. Armentrout has become one of the most recognizable voices in modern fantasy romance, known for weaving together dangerous worlds, heart-racing romance, and heroines who refuse to stay silent. Her stories rarely follow a straight path, love is tangled with betrayal, destiny collides with defiance, and the line between gods and mortals is never as clear as it seems.

She grew up in West Virginia, where her habit of scribbling stories during math class turned into the foundation of a career that would reach readers across the world. What began as a teenage escape soon grew into an expansive body of work spanning paranormal thrillers, contemporary romance, young adult fantasy, and her internationally bestselling romantasy series Blood and Ash.

Armentrout’s writing stands out for its immediacy, sharp dialogue, characters who feel startlingly real, and worlds that balance raw intimacy with sweeping stakes. She often explores themes of identity, power, and choice, asking how far someone will go when love and survival are at odds. Her work has earned recognition not just from bestseller lists but also from readers who find in her stories a space where vulnerability and strength coexist.

Away from the page, she is open about her own journey, including living with retinitis pigmentosa, a condition that impacts her vision. Her willingness to share her experiences has only deepened the connection between her and her audience, many of whom see her as both a storyteller and an advocate.

With dozens of novels published, from the Lux and Covenant series to contemporary favorites and her recent expansion of the Flesh and Fire prequels, Armentrout continues to write at a pace as relentless as her plots. Her books invite readers into worlds of passion and peril, where every choice carries weight and every secret has the power to change everything.

Lux

Lux consists of five primary books, and includes three additional books that complement the series but are not considered mandatory reads. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
