Summary

Caspien Deveraux was poison.

It took me years to realise that he hadn't been born like that. He'd been cultivated and nurtured by a careful hand and a bitter heart. When I first met him, he was a bud. One primed to bloom beautifully and deadly. One I should have torn out at the root.

I loathed him. I loved him. And until him, I hadn't known just how completely those two things could exist at once.

Outstanding

I’m obsessed over Oleander, so when the audio dropped I had to endure the pain all over again. I wasn’t sure if I could go through the hurt so soon, but let me tell you something, going through this a second time round has made me love it even more. Being back with Jude and Cas has been so emotional. knowing what was to come in places gave me preemptive tears, then a flood when I got to that part. George is the perfect choice for this audio, he brought Jude and this read to life, I have also loved the flashback voice! This has been something I’ve not experienced in an audio before and it was awesome. The audio has only cemented how this will be one of my all time favourites and one I will always come back to.

Haunting!

I can't tell you how much I love this book. The story follows Jude and Caspien from mid teens into adulthood, from the Channel Islands, to Oxford and to London. Its a tale of an all consuming love and what a person will go through to protect the one they love. The narration is just superb, and Scarletts writing pure poetry. All in all perfection!
