Dangerous Creatures

De: Kami Garcia, Margaret Stohl

Narrado por: Khristine Hvam, Kevin T. Collins

From the world of Beautiful Creatures--the instant New York Times bestselling tale of love and magic.

Ridley Duchannes is nobody's heroine. She's a Dark Caster, a Siren. She can make you do things. Anything. You can't trust her, or yourself when she's around. And she'll be the first to tell you to stay away--especially if you're going to do something as stupid as fall in love with her.

Lucky for Ridley, her wannabe rocker boyfriend, Wesley "Link" Lincoln, never listens to anyone. Link doesn't care if Rid's no good for him, and he takes her along when he leaves small-town Gatlin to follow his rock-star dream. He teams up with a ragtag group of Dark Casters, and when the band scores a gig at a hot Underground club, it looks like all of Link's dreams are about to come true.

But New York City is a dangerous place for both Casters and Mortals, and soon Ridley realizes that Link's bandmates are keeping secrets. With bad-boy club owner Lennox Gates on her heels, Rid is determined to find out the truth. What she discovers is worse than she could have imagined: Link has a price on his head that no Caster or Mortal can ever pay. With their lives on the line, what's a Siren to do?

Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl, the #1 New York Times bestselling coauthors of the Beautiful Creatures novels, are back to cast another magical spell. Their signature blend of mystery, suspense, and romance, with a healthy dose of wit and danger, will pull fans in and leave them begging for more.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Praise for the bestselling Beautiful Creatures novels:
"A hauntingly delicious dark fantasy."—Cassandra Clare, New York Times bestselling author of City of Bones

"In the Gothic tradition of Anne Rice....Give this to fans of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight or HBO's True Blood series." —School Library Journal

"Gorgeously crafted, atmospheric, and original." —Melissa Marr, New York Times bestselling author of Wicked Lovely

"The authors ground their Caster world in the concrete, skillfully juxtaposing the arcane, magical world with Gatlin's normal southern lifestyle....[Fans will] plead for more." —VOYA (starred review)

"A lush Southern gothic." —Holly Black, New York Times bestselling author of Tithe: A Modern Faerie Tale

"Smart, textured and romantic." —Kirkus Reviews

Good franchise extension

Would you consider the audio edition of Dangerous Creatures to be better than the print version?

Any additional comments?

With this ending, the writers better be writing the next book very, very quickly!

Interesting

Fans of the Beautiful Creatures series will find this new series that explores the consequences of Lena's claiming and how much more dangerous the dark side is when you anger the wrong people.

Sorry I listened to the ending - Book 2...?

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The ending was nothing like the beautiful creatures books. I know its just a book, but it still brings tears to my eyes thinking about how it ended. It seems as though a lot of issues are left unresolved, and I would love another couple of books to resolve those issues as well as fix the ending of this book. What's up with the rings? Why don't they get help from family? I am pretty sure the rest of the family was involved in the death of Abraham, and it seems like he would want to take it out on all of them.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

Interesting to be inside of Rid's head and get to know her better. Least interesting or most devastating: Even in Death the Bad Guy Wins.

What about Khristine Hvam’s performance did you like?

Performed well.

Could you see Dangerous Creatures being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

I would watch it, as long as this was season one and there are a lot more seasons to explain what is going on and the end wasn't the end that I am left thinking it is.

Any additional comments?

Making this book into a series by adding a second book would improve my rating to five stars.

Amazing Story but Terribly Sad ⚠️SPOILER⚠️

Sad at the end, I might be the only person who ships Rid and Nox more than Rid and Link. I am absolutely devastated that Nox might die (yes I still have hope), AND I am going to say that I had suspicions about the boy on the beach being Nox what happened at the end of ch. 34 only confirmed my theory but other than my crying I'm my bed at 5 am due to a book AMAZING story will definitely recommend to my friends

best audible production! Better than reading it!

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

I have loved this entire series and this title was no disappointment, it is amazing to hear it as an audio book as it has its own soundtrack and each unique character which helps set the mood for each part. I can not imagine reading the printed version of these books and loving them as much as the audio production, so great. I can not wait for the next part of this spin off series!

Who was your favorite character and why?

I love Ridley, always have. She's the bad girl that doesn't want to be bad, or at least she won't admit it. fantastic getting to see more of her history, and Shrinky Dink Link:)

What does Khristine Hvam bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

she is one of my favorite narrators so is Kevin T Collins, they are a match made in heaven and do a great job with this series
