Short description
If you remember one thing, one thing at all, remember this: He is a Demigod who seeks to enslave all of humanity. Join the resistance and save the Followers.Extended description
For two thousand years He has been absent, all the time locked away in a prison cell. No longer. The Demigod whose legend alone has influenced humanity for millennia is back. He has returned to take His place as ruler of humanity.Now He needs to build an army, one strong enough to oppose the Gods and any Humans that would resist. To do this, he needs capable fighters. Already one has caught his eye - a young Air Elemental named Brandon Marlowe. The Demigod is convinced that if He can get this boy, the Human realm is sure to fall.
To make this happen, the Demigod has collected a particular secret - the one secret Brandon has dedicated his life to uncovering. What might Brandon do to find the answer he's devoted his life to discovering?

Eric Livingston's series is just the right medicine for those suffering from fantasy withdrawal. This series kept my children's noses (aged 10 to 17) in the pages and provided a great introduction to Greek mythology. The books are fast-paced and suitable for adults and children over the age of ten.

Despite being incomplete, this was a fun series to read. The author combines good dialogue with an adventurous and original plot that keeps you reading.
On a side note, I was sad to see this book fall from the highest rated. I know it was one of the main reasons it came to my attention. It's clearly not for small-minded people who can only whine when a book challenges them.
I'll be telling everyone of my friends to read this series!

This book is a great mix of fantasy, adventure, and mystery. I enjoyed reading this book, and am really looking forward to the release of the next book. The setting of the book and the way the write described it, made it feel like I was really there. The story kept my attention through the whole book and it ended totally unlike how I expected it to end!

This is one of the more original fantasy books that I've come across in a while. It takes something that most people are interested in (mythology) and puts an updated fantasy spin on it. The premise is that the Greek gods are still active and up to their old tricks only this time there are humans who have inherited the abilities of fallen gods/titans, their job is to stop them. Brandon Marlowe survives this world, and unlike the PJ series this author makes no bones about the danger these people face. Very gripping, very fun.

A great continuation from Alpha in the Omega. The journal chapter was certainly an interesting look into Jesus' mindset.
Then of course you have Brandon developing even more. By the end of the book he has finalized his resolve and I can't wait to see what he does next.

This story is imaginative and original. The characters are strong with quirky personalities. Although violent in parts, there's no gore for gore's sake.
Brandon is an engaging hero. The tension builds and the world the author creates is never boring. Highly recommended.

Charismatic characters, a deep and involving world, and a great series. Overall, a great book that will surely entertain most readers.
On a personal note. If your thinking about Mark of Athena, give this series a try and you'll quickly be abandoning Rick Riordan.

I didn't know what to expect when I first picked up this series. I had heard a very brief description of it, and it didn't sound like my thing. But so many people recommended it, that I went ahead and read it. I'm so glad that I did. It's exceptionally written, thought provoking, and intense. It's really a must read. I've read it over and over again.

I was ravished by the story. The book is told from Brandon's point of view, first person past tense. The conversations occurring in Brandon's head (he talks to his weapons) Overall, the style sheds a unique light on the inner workings of this developing character. I think it works. It keeps the mystery alive and the action tense for the reader.

This series kept me entertained from the beginning. I wasn't sure what was going to happen. I am glad that the author is making another book b/c as I got nearer to the end the Gods finally began to make their move. I am anxiously awaiting the next book!

I loved this series! Brandon is such a great hero. Clever, strong, and caring for others. So much so that his biggest fear seems to be accidentally hurting those around him.
At the same time there is a great reflection of our own society in the way of the 'Followers'. The author talks about how easily they give up their will and now that I I've seen it that way, I admit he has a point.
The book is a winner from the beginning, but once the action begins, it's very hard to put down!

This book continues a brilliant series, I couldn't put it down once I started it I got so caught up that I stayed up late into the night reading it and came into work tired and a bit melancholy the next day. If you are looking for a feel good read this is not the book for you. However, if you are looking for a fantastic, emotional and heartrending story with characters that come off the page and remain with you, then this is definitely the book for you.

A remarkable series. A great read however, I must caution parents... this book may put "ideas" in your child's head. I suggest you read the book first, then decide. A lot of parents are skeptical about the book. Still, it's a wonderful read.
Other than that, this book (and series as a whole) is amazing. It left me begging for more. Wonderful book.

This series is fascinating, action packed, and highly addicting. It's drags you in with mysteries and mythology and you keep thinking about it long beyond finishing the books. I hesitated for a while to read them because of the Percy Jackson books which have eclipsed the mythology market. These are far more interesting than anything Riordan has written.

I flew through these three books. This author has me completely hooked. Eric Livingston has a warped but brilliant mind in his depiction of 'Alpha'. (I don't want to spoil the surprise) It's entertaining, and incredibly disturbing all at once.
I'm anxiously awaiting the next book in the series!

A favorite on going series of mine. If you are reading this you MUST start with the Spirit Snatcher and go in order. Each book starts pretty much where the other left off and you'll be lost for a bit if you start one out of order. Other than that, a great read.

My son told me about this series and I decided to read it to see what the fuss was about. After reading I can see why he liked it so much. With so many mainstream stories focusing on the relationship in the book this one focuses on the story while having romance, and there is some, play a less important role.
A definite buy for any moms trying to get their sons into reading.

Latest book in the series and honestly the more I read the more it makes me wonder. You can feel a story outside the story (if that makes sense) and you find yourself getting very involved. Cant wait for the next one.
