Daphne was a character whose presence haunted the characters on the first book of the trilogy.
This short story describes a scene from her past. She is one of my favorite characters, so I liked this short short novella!

This was definitely odd-interesting. It's not about a main-main character, so I'm definitely curious about how this will (very likely) fold into Book Two and more of Judas's character. I don't feel that I learned anything new in this book that I hadn't learned in book one, but I'm always open to seeing how Lauren takes things I'm not expecting and turns them on their heads.

I love Lauren DeStefano's writing, but this was just way too short. :(

I love this author and her books very much. She is one of my favorites. However this short story is even more short than most of these digital short stories and $1.99 made me feel a little bit taken. .99 cents would have been a more reasonable price for what we get here. It's been over a year since I read "Perfect Ruin" and this story doesn't even feature one of the main characters. Prior to this being release, most fans seemed to hope this would be a prequel about Lex, instead it features Daphne. And honestly, before it starts, the story is over. It added nothing, as far as I can tell, to the series.

This short story gave us a glimpse at Daphne Leander, but it wasn't a long enough glimpse to truly get to know her or understand what Judas was like with her. I love the idea but wish it was a novella.

Although I have no intention of dying, if that makes you feel any better at all.
