Trylle community

Ending was a little slow. Overall story line was interesting. Like author's story world but some of the story parts were a little hard to believe in.

This book was good

This was by far the best in the series! To she the Queen come into her power was AWSOME. But as much as I enjoyed the series, this one for sure was pretty over the top sweet in the end..

Amanda Hocking gets it right every darn time

I don't really need to add anything more. she could write the instructions on the back of a shampoo bottle and it would be worth reading.

Just read everything and thank me later.

Good Story.....but you need the series....

I loved this story....a good series for younger readers as well as adults. I would recommend to anyone that likes a little of the mythical mixed with the 'real' world.

Great story

Really liked this story. Not a bunch of sex or violence, just enough to get the points across.

✫✫ 5 Stars ✫✫

I am so sad it's over but I love that we got the entire story and a glimpse into the future too. This entire series is full of excitement, love & mystery! Even though this was a re-read it was just as great as it was the first time! This author does a fabulous job with these characters and making the readers love them all and giving them all qualities that make them unique but they also all have not so perfect sides which really helps you want the story to end exactly the way it did for everyone! I highly recommend this series!

The narration was perfect! I am a huge Therese Plummer fan but I will admit I was a little worried she may be to mature for this series but I was wrong, she was awesome as always!

Wonderful Ending

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. The Trylle Trilogy was incredible. Amanda really knows how to captivate those who love phantasy stories. I could not wait to listen to the the last book of the serie. The three books were wonderfully written and captivate you. The ending was amazing.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Ascend?

It was when Wendy finally admits loving Loki and spends the night with Loki during a time of a lot despair.

Have you listened to any of Therese Plummer’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes. Is listened to Torn. In both cases the performance was excellent. It was the best performance from the books I heard so far.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes
