Oblivion: Lux, Book 1.5

Great book!

Absolutely loved Daemons POV you learn so much about him and his conflicting feelings/attraction for Kitten, and his loyalty and protection, I have read this now several times, BRILLIANT!!!

I love a dual pov do this was a really enjoyable read.

1. Obsidian (13/04/2020)When Oblivion first came out, I read it in one go and I couldn't get enough. This time round, I am alternating between Katy's and Daemon's POV and I must such that the experience this time round is much better. There is something special about alternating between the books and see the events enfold through both set of eyes.I am so happy that Jennifer decided to write this book because being in Daemon Black's head is a treat. You saw how much of a douche he is to Katy in Obsidian but in Oblivion you get to the bottom of drives him to act the way he does. You see him constantly struggle between doing what is right for his family and his growing attraction for Katy. Every time he is reminded of his dead brother, he lashes out and does everything in his power to push Katy away, just so history does not repeat itself. It was honestly heartbreaking to watch.He really bared his soul to us and it really pulled at my heartstrings to see how bad he felt for his moments of douchiness. He didn't like causing Katy pain but felt like there was no other way. I especially adored the moments when Katy's was not conscious or when he decided to speak in his own language. That's when he really let his guard down.I felt like the poor guy had too much responsibility on his shoulders. Because he was the strongest and fastest among the luxen community, a lot of expected of him, including mating a fellow luxen to produce next generation of strong and fast luxen. It was hard seeing him struggle with that on top of his emotions for Kat. He tried to fight it at every turn, which made him act like a douche.On the other hand, he sometimes acted like a douche to just get a rise out of her which worked almost every time. Because if there is one thing that Daemon excels at, it is being a douche.We also were gifted with some scenes are dialogues that did not happen in Obsidian which was extremely nice. I especially enjoyed Daemon and Katy's trip to the bookstore. Poor Daemon, he really needs to do something about his serious case of blue balls!2. Onyx (19/04/2020-22/04/2020)The longer I spend in Daemon's head, the more I love him.Onyx in Daemon's POV is a gem, full of dialogues and scenes that we didn't get in the original Onyx. I especially love the one where Daemon makes Katy to make him pancakes and it didn't quite turn out the way he expected. I'd say he won't be eating pancakes again any time soon!Another thing that I greatly enjoyed was the moments between Dee and Daemon. You can feel the love that they have for each other and how they would do anything to protect the other.While being in Daemon's head is great, I can't help but feel a little sad. It was difficult to see him being disappointed and upset with Katy for the way she was acting. All he wanted to do was to protect her, but she defied him every step of the way. To be honest, I probably would not have gone as easy on her as Daemon has if I were in his shoes.I really wish that Katy had as much trust in Daemon as he did in her. Things could have turned out a whole lot different if she did.It was the little things that made this book special. Daemon subscribing to Katy's blog I thought was incredibly sweet. And I love Daemon's ability to make everything sound sexual, even something so simple like socks. And I have incredibly soft spot for Daemon's playfulness.But the thing I loved the most was Daemon's inner thoughts only we as readers could see. How he laid himself bare for us. How he showed us that beyond that arrogant, cocky front was actually vulnerable man with incredible soft side that he only showed to the ones he cared about.His interaction with Adam has also made me like Adam a lot more which makes it even worse to witness the consequences of Katy's actions. There is no way that Adam is related to Ash and Andrew. Is there such a thing as luxen adoption? Because he is the polar opposite of those two; he is supportive, kind, non-judgmental. Dee has great taste in guys. She really could have thought Katy thing or two because before she got with Daemon, Katy's taste in guys was less than stellar.Thankfully, from now on Daemon and Katy will present a united front which I am excited to read about again. Opal, here I come!3. Opal (26/04/2020-29/04/2020)Man, what a journey this has been. You thought you knew Daemon when you read these in Katy's POV, but you do not know Daemon, truly know him, until you get into his head.It's truly great to see Daemon interact with his siblings. It was one of my favourite things to see while reading Opal . You see how much it affects him to have Dawson back and how happy it makes him when Dawson slowly finds way back to his old self. How Dee, even when she is still upset and angry with Daemon from events that happened in Onyx , is still there for Daemon no matter what. The familial bond the three siblings share is truly amazing and something to aspire to.Daemon's relationships with Matthew and Thompson siblings were also nice to see. How they can be complete douches to each other, but then be there for one another when it really counts. It shows that family runs deeper than blood, and that no matter what they can rely on each other.Of course, I absolutely loved scenes where Daemon and Katy got some alone time. Most of the time it did not last very long before reality came crashing down, but the tender moments these two shared made my heart race.Also how sexy is it that even Mountain Man wants a piece of Daemon? Looks like no one can resist our sexy Luxen! And how weird is it that the club that they go into to meet Luc is called The Harbinger? Is foreshadowing at works here?There is a lot going on in this book, some good, some bad and some downright ugly. There were happy tears, there were sad tears, there was death and there were betrayals. Opal shredded me to pieces and I would not have it any other way. Going to start Origin right now to make my self feel better! Cannot wait for the Daedalus to get taste of their own medicine.

This book is recommended to all daemon fans.I really enjoyed the series through his POV.It would have been better if this in printed format

Capturing novel and start to the series.

I bought the regular novel first but then get the kindle edition just to see his pov on the other books as well. It is funny that Daemon describes her as smelling like peaches and Kat describes him as outdoorsy smell with spice haha. I also thought it was funny that Kats description changed. In the original story he asked her what colour her hair was as it was described not quite blond nor brown and she replied that it was light brown...however in is series, her hair is chocolate brown. There is also a typo of saying Adam was at the door after Adam was already dead...I think she meant Andres.

Muy buen servicio. Rápido y confiable. E incluso se recibió antes de lo planeado. Muchas gracias por la entrega :D

I searched all my life for the perfect book boyfriend. The one who made my toes curl, and set my heart a flutter. A lot have come close, but there was that one that I couldn’t get out of my head. He was everything I dreamed of and more. Daemon Black fit that bill, and since I was introduced to him, there was none that could compare. I may sound crazy referring to him as my perfect man, but the truth is I’ve loved him from the moment. He opened that door shirtless, and acted like a jerk towards Katy, and now after reading Oblivion, I’m even more head over heals in love with him.The Lux series is perfect in my eyes, and I would have lived a happy existence, without Daemon’s pov, but now that I’ve had the opportunity to read his thoughts I have a new appreciation, and admiration for him. I’ve always known there was more to him then a pretty face. I adore him when he gets all cocky, but for the love of sweet baby aliens everywhere the man has a heart filled with love and compassion. Katy I love her and maybe I should hate her for snagging the man of my dreams, but she’s perfect for him, and the story.With the alternate pov it’s not an exact retelling; it’s impossible for each character to remain stuck together for the entire story. What we get is several scenes that we haven’t seen, my favorites are the ones with Dee, and also some other characters that he put in their place. I discovered his love for Katy started slowly, and evolved into this super galactic love. He protected Katy without any reservations, and she did the same. Each side of this story has captivated me for so many different reasons.Daemon Black has taught me everything I need to know about true love. You certainly don’t choose who you fall in love with, sometimes it chooses you, and takes you to places you never imagined. Some choices aren’t easy, and many are as simple as breathing. Life is full of surprises that turn your world upside down, and it’s all ok, because everyone has different paths to follow.“I’ve always found that the most beautiful people, beautiful inside and out, are the ones who are quietly una ware of their effect. The ones who throw their beauty around, waste what they have? Their beauty is only passing. It’s just a shell hiding nothing but shadows and emptiness.”This is clearly my favorite series ever. I’ve read these books more times than I can count. Oblivion is a special book. It should be cherished, and read with a carton of rocky road ice cream. It is a must-read for fans of the series, as well as newbies. Everything you would come to expect from the arrogant alien and then some. Jennifer L. Armentrout is my hero. I’m so happy that she gave us this pov. If I could I’d give her a gigantic hug. She gave us everything we could have hoped for from this series, and so much more.
