A Soul of Ash and Blood

Blood and Ash, Book 5

De: Jennifer L. Armentrout

Narrado por: Tim Campbell

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.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Narrator Tim Campbell returns to the role of Casteel Da'Neer in the fifth book in the Blood and Ash series.… Tim Campbell captures the sarcastic and flirtatious sides of the prince. Campbell's sonorous voice is as easy to fall in love with as the character of Casteel, making Campbell the perfect casting choice.”—AudioFile Magazine

“Expertly and vividly performed with the impressive narrative vocal styles of Tim Campbell, this…will have a very special attraction to fans of vampire romance fantasy fiction. Original, self-contained, and a must for the growing legions of Jennifer L. Armentrout fans.”—Midwest Book Review

LOVE LOVE LOVE

Loved it!! Not a big fan of this narrator but that is only because Stina is Casteel as far as I’m concerned. HOWEVER, I quickly got past it and he did really good regardless! I almost prefer his Keiran and the rest of the wolven/Atlantian gang over Stina’s portrayal, so it wasn’t a completely bad experience.

I absolutely love how Jennifer did this book! Taking parts of the first book and offering Casteel’s perspective! Love love loved it! I’m not even past the first 5 chapters yet and am already reviewing it 5 stars! Casteel is MY FAVORITE book boyfriend. This means even Rhys, Cassian, Rowan and Hunt takes a back seat to my Casteel! No offense to my SJM girlies out there. This was the first series I started after reading ACOTAR and it quickly became my favorite, not to mention, most listened too series to date. Poppy’s internal monologuing gets a little annoying after awhile, so writing the book in Casteel’s POV like this was just fantastic! GO JLA!! Thanks for blessing us with such a beautiful and wonderful (and so freaking sexy) character that is Prince Casteel Da’Neer!

Kinda feel cheated

This is just a rehash of the storyline from Cas’ point of view. Then a little bit of new story at the very end. Now I feel like I paid for the book twice. I expected a continuation of the story. Don’t waste a credit on this one.

I'll be brief just like the author

There was barely anything new. Cas' perspective didn't add much to what was included in previous books from the series. And just when something interesting starts happening we end on a cliff hanger. Was this a money grab? I can see no other reason for this book.

Heads up, book 1 from Cas perspective

4 hours left in the book and still no continuation of the storyline. There are a sprinkle of “present” scenes, but that’s about it. I wish I would have known the whole book would have been from Cas’s perspective. The story overall is not bad, I enjoy learning more about him and the reader does a great job. I just wish I would have known before hand.

A little disappointed

I loved Cas’s POV but honestly it was a little much to do the whole first book over again.
