Publisher's Summary

The lush epic fantasy that inspired a generation with a single precept: “Love As Thou Wilt."

Returning to the realm of Terre d’Ange, which captured an entire generation of fantasy fans, New York Times bestselling author Jacqueline Carey brings us a hero’s journey for a new era.

In Kushiel’s Dart, a daring young courtesan uncovered a plot to destroy her beloved homeland. But hers is only half the tale. Now see the other half of the heart that lived it.

Cassiel’s Servant is a retelling of cult favorite Kushiel’s Dart from the point of view of Joscelin, Cassiline warrior-priest and protector of Phèdre nó Delaunay. He’s sworn to celibacy and the blade as surely as she’s pledged to pleasure, but the gods they serve have bound them together. When both are betrayed, they must rely on each other to survive.

From his earliest training to captivity amongst their enemies, his journey with Phèdre to avert the conquest of Terre D’Ange shatters body and mind… and brings him an impossible love that he will do anything to keep.

Even if it means breaking all vows and losing his soul.

“Decadent and dark, Cassiel’s Servant reveals the secrets of the mysterious Cassiline brotherhood. In this gorgeously realized novel, Carey returns to the world of Terre d’Ange and offers us a new and dazzling perspective on a character we thought we knew.”—Nghi Vo, author of The Chosen and the Beautiful and Siren Queen

the perfect companion to kushiel's avatar

I didn't know how much I needed to hear Joscelin's side of the story. I have so many specific things that I want to point out as being heartbreaking and amazing, but I want to avoid spoilers for those who might have this book as their entry into terre d'ange! I really hope that Jacqueline Carey continues this series!

I found the narrator to be excellent, and any time I was bothered by the chewing of the words, it was because my device was not set to best audio quality - fixing that made a big difference. there were some pauses that seemed too long, but it wasn't a big enough bother to detract a star.

Great for both new readers or old!

I read Kushiel’s Dart more than 20 years ago and adored it. This look through Joscelin’s eyes is both a fresh perspective and a poignant bit of nostalgia.
