About this listen

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Knife Edge by Malorie Blackman.

No one could begin to guess at the depth of the hatred I held for Sephy Hadley. Everything began with her and my brother. And that's how it would end.

Where there has been love, now there is hate.

Two families have been shattered by the divided and violent society they live in.

Sephy Hadley - a Cross, supposedly powerful and privileged - has bound herself forever to her nought lover Callum McGregor's family.

But Jude McGregor blames Sephy for all the tragedies his family has suffered. And he is determined to force her to take sides and destroy her life...just like she destroyed his....

Voted as one of the UK's best-loved books, Malorie Blackman's Noughts & Crosses series is a seminal piece of YA fiction - a true modern classic.

I enjoyed the book.

The plot continues to capture the reader's attention but I felt misled by the summary. There is no mention of Callie 15years in the future and this particular book does not extend to exploring the future danger alluded to in the summary.

I am looking forward to finding out what happens next though.

the blurb of this novel is inaccurate.

Jude is a scum bag! I really grew to detest him. Everything seems so messed up- more than it was in book 1! Not sure if I want to read or listen to book 3. There's not many characters left to like! Poor Mrs McGregor has been dealt an unfortunate hand in life: as if things weren't bad enough!

Incredibly gripping - Malorie Blackman doesn't like happy endings!

It was cool but sometimes the acting was terrible and drony. The story is good but if not got others in series, do not get this one.
