About this listen
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.

George Naylor brings this book alive In a way I did not know was possible!
I read this book this summer for the first time. It stayed with me for months. I never re-read books usually but this one is even better as a re-read and especially when narrated in the way it. was. George is the perfect Jude. The emotion he brings across. That broken Jude voice. It was heart breaking all over again. I loved everything about it!

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.

Narration + story gave me all the feels
The narration was excellent as I exlected from the teaser realeased earlier. I purchased it so fast!!!
The story was slow burn,coming of age,with MCs spending long time apart but it gave the best angst and feels, and I'm still relistening to my fave parts! Loved it!

This was one of the most beautiful and moving books I’ve ever read or listened too. The narration was perfect. I can’t recommend it highly enough.

All of it
This audio was stunning I read the book back when it came out in June and loved it so I absolutely had to listen to the audio and it was done so much justice. I must of cried a million times. It’s a beautiful story and George narrated this so brilliant! Every person was done with perfection and I’m still not over it now tbh! Highly recommend this audio and the book! You won’t regret it

All the stars for my favourite book.!
Truly the most incredible story ever. I could never put it into words how much I loved this story. I read it in July and I feel in love with Scarlett’s writing and her world she created.
The reading experience is amazing I couldn’t fault it but the audio is just wow. The narrator George did something to do. He made me feel more than I did reading it which is impressive. He smashed it. I hope I get to hear his voice again on one of Scarlett’s books. This book is everything. Truly loved it and it will be a book I go back to reread or listen to again and again years to come.

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!
