By: Jennifer L. Armentrout

Only his memories can save her…

A great primal power has risen. The Queen of Flesh and Fire has become the Primal of Blood and Bone—the true Primal of Life and Death. And the battle Casteel, Poppy, and their allies have been fighting has only just begun. Gods are awakening across Iliseeum and the mortal realm, readying for the war to come.

But when Poppy falls into stasis, Cas faces the very real possibility that the dire, unexpected consequences of what she is becoming could take her away from him. Cas is given some advice, though—something he plans to cling to as he waits to see her beautiful eyes open once more: Talk to her.

And so, he does. He reminds Poppy how their journey began, revealing things about himself that only Kieran knows in the process. But it’s anybody’s guess what she’ll wake to or exactly how much of the realm and Cas will have changed when she does.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout revisits Poppy and Casteel’s epic love story in the next installment of the Blood and Ash series. But this time, Hawke gets to tell the tale.

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

recap other point of view

I appreciate the recap honestly and hearing his side helps me appreciate their bong even more ♥️

Love the cast voices very fitting and love hearing cass’s point of view not just poppi’s

I love this series! Now to wait until part 2 comes out! I’m very impatiently waiting !

Let’s wrap it up

I absolutely loved the first two books in this series, they were addictive and engaging. Unfortunately, by this point the story is starting to feel drawn out and somewhat pointless. After the previous book, it really felt like the series should have wrapped up, and now it seems to be continuing without a clear direction. I do love the graphic audio version, the narrators are fantastic and definitely elevated the experience, but if this hadn’t been a graphic audio, I probably wouldn’t have continued after the third book.
