The Rise of Nine

I think I liked "The Power of Six" better, but this was still an entertaining story. We received a little more insight into the characters' personalities and their respective legacies, in addition to meeting another gaurde member. The last half of the book was pretty action packed too.

The love triangle/square that formed during the second book took a back seat in book three. I think that whole angle was a little unbelievable when you threw Sam in there. I'm not quite sure if the story line is dead or might revive itself later, but it didn't really come to a head. Certainly not in typical teenage girl fashion. Overall it was a very good story and I'm excited for the release of book four.

I liked first two parts and I was eagerly waiting for this one. This series held such a promise and this guy managed to mess it up. book was fine until about last third where writer got lost in the story. The end..... I'm trying to think of the word that would describe it and I'm coming out blank. It's aweful. Ruined the whole thing even if you forget about messed up story.

The author was was addequite and the naration was fine

it was what I expected from the other audio books.

Yes.

It's getting one, because the story isn't done.

Your Audio format is very bad.
I had heard good things for a long time, and subscribed as a new user and got a free book, that was awesome. However, your format does not work with Linux. I had to spend 2 hours to find a work around to get it to work all of which included installing a windows VM. on a computer with low ram this is not ideal.
I then came up with the idea of installing Android onto a VM and listened with your Android application.
needless to say, it is not worth using. Too much trouble.
Please work on a better audio format for people who use other Operatin systems aside from Windows, or Mac.
Linux, and FreeBSD users do Exist, please keep that in mind.

All of it. Each number was quite interesting & some of their powers really, really cool.

Number 8, he is just a really playful & endearing character.

All of it

Yep

It's a must listen

The book is good for the most part. Just an ending that is disappointing. The series would be much better without the cursing.

Yes, I'd recommend this audiobook. We were awaiting the release of this book. Get the others in the series if you haven't already.

My son loves number 9. My favorite is 6. Probably the gender thing. We both like to see bravery but also some uniqueness in a hero.

There were actually 3 narrators. My husband and son and I thought 2 were good but that the other sounded odd in some characters.

The movie was pretty good, near to the book.

The story line is solid, the characters are complex and interesting, and the performance was top notch. The plot is a new twist on the old theme of aliens taking over the earth, but in this version, the heroes/heroines are also aliens with super-powers who team up with humans to save Earth. The good aliens embody the best qualities of humans (and also some of our faults) and are easy to identify with. The histories of the aliens' planets of origin provides a plausible back story. The addition of a loyal shape-shifting companion that resembles a lovable beagle (when he's not fighting alien monsters) is a nice touch. The use of two readers (one male and one female) really made this audio book stand out for me, as even the best performers are rarely able to produce a convincing voice for a character of the opposite sex. The readers here are well able to perform several characters each, producing distinctive voices for each character. The imagery is vivid and the action scenes keep the listener on the edge of their seat. Listening to this performance was like being there. I plan to get the earlier audio books in the series.

Loved this story and can't wait for the next installment from Pittacus Lore.

A 12 year old who hasn't yet had their parents explain to them how people or reality really interact.

I liked the first book. Because of the potential. But instead of utilizing that potential it seems that with every next step the bar is lowered.

Very doubtful. I'm not sure if she harmed the story with her performance, or because she was put in a position of having nothing to work with... but this just gets more awful. Not many books do I find that every time I push pause to do something else do I wish I had that time back.

Waste of time and potential.

maybe but I don't want to be let down at the end only to have to wait for the next book to come in in another 2 years?

?

Good - loved his intrepretation of #9!

Yes! The stupid "transmissions" of Pittacus Lore. I could not understand them.

Only with the end - didn't like how it just "stopped"

It was pretty good! I've listened to a bunch and the actors did a really good job.

Happy and sad it isnt over yet. Happy cause there is more story but sad cause I have to wait for it to come out!
