For what seemed like a pretty easy job, trying to identify the essence of blackberries was incredibly difficult.īut Yelena also had to deal with a bunch of other stuff, not just her life threatening job. The description of taste and flavour was excellent, as was how the different poisons could kill you. In the first quarter of the book, Yelena has to learn the art of poison tasting, aided by Valek, the Edward Rochester to her Jane Eyre. This could result in sudden death, but it’s much better than being hanged. The blurb does not do it all justice.įirst of all, Yelena is a murderer and due to the Codes of Behaviour, she has to be given the opportunity to be the Commander’s poison taster. I think it helps that I haven’t read much of the high fantasy genre, but after this, I’ve very excited to read more of Bee’s favourite books! Usually, when I’m reading a book, I notice multiple similarities with something else. Boy, was I pleased with the result! ‘Poison Study’ is unlike anything I’ve ever read. So, I thought it was about time that I saw what all the fuss was about. If you watch our videos, you probably know that Bee absolutely adores ‘The Chronicles of Ixia’ series and will happily call Yelena from the ‘Poison Study’ quartet her favourite female character.
