Resumen del Editor

First the floods consumed the Earth.

Then the Syndicate took everything from me.

My childhood, my first love — my humanity.

Before I was born, the rising oceans consumed the last land on Earth. All I’ve ever known is a fight for survival. But the Syndicate wants to change this, genetically adapting children to fit this harsh new world — no matter how many lives are sacrificed in the process.

When little, I was ripped from my home to take part in the Syndicate's cruel experiments. But I broke free. Now, at the age of 17, I'm hunted for my unique ability to thrive beneath the ocean's depths, but also because I rescue others held captive by the Syndicate.

Every day is a predictable struggle, the same watery grave of fears. Everything changes on a routine patrol of a Syndicate vessel, however, when I stumble across two people — a highly sought-after prisoner who was designed to be more powerful than myself and a young man from my past, one my heart never forgot.

These two ghosts from my past will most likely jeopardize all the work I’ve achieved against the Syndicate. But I can’t leave them behind. Even if I lose everything in saving them, including my very life.

Reckless is a dystopian adventure packed with action, romance, and wonder. Listeners who enjoyed The Lunar Chronicles and Red Queen will love this epic young adult series.

Note: Reckless is a re-brand of the novel, NeverSea with improved editing and adjusted character naming.

Mind control!

Great fantasy story! Grand you from the beginning! Makes you sad what the young people went through! How they come together to fight for their lives! Narrators worked well together!

Good book

Enjoy this story, very much. Family is family even if you are not blood related.

interesting

interesting take where all the elements actually worked together; I honestly didn't think this book would hold my interest but I was wrong. Actually looking to read and/or listening more of the series.

"interesting story, good elements"

I could honestly do without the love story in this series. the elements of the story are smashing without it and keep you gripped into what will happen next. The love story on the other hand, turns our badass female lead into a wallowing Juliet that feels totally out of character.

performance of the actors reading the story were pretty good. I would have rather the female voices make up for the female characters during the male chapters - the female voices the male actor used were just ok and could have been greatly enhanced.

is it worth it? Yep, definitely. I got this one as part of a review program and I'm going to buy the next one.

Great audio book

Once I started this I couldn’t stop listening! I loved the story line and the characters! It really sucks you right in! The narrator did a great job of bringing it to life.

Good story. I hope the heroine gets bolder in book 2

Great narration, awesome idea for a story. I just kinda hope the main female lead toughens up in the second book. She has such an awesome ability I wish there was more focus on it.

Great story

I had this book on my want to read list for ages, and when I seen the audio book I knew I had to listen. I have listened to plenty of Ms. Penner's books but this is the first for the other author that I have had the privilege to listen to. I can not wait to listen to the rest of this series the narrators did a great job keeping me pulled into the story.

action all the way!

this book was none stop action. so much going on, love, hate, fights, guns, fighting for freedom, ect. if you like books that are gunna keep you on the edge this is the book for you. action though the whole thing. I really enjoyed the book. and the 2 narrator did an awesome job too.

Great story

I like this concept where people are trying to survive in a water filled world. The story kept me pulled in and I can’t wait to see what is next!

A Fantastic Dystopian/Fairytale Retelling Mash-up!

I really enjoyed the Peter Pan/Little Mermaid mash-up with a Dystopian twist plot! This is definitely not quite the fairy tales that you remember, but it's every bit as enjoyable as the original or Disney-fied version of the fairy tales. I got sucked into all the action, adventure, drama, humor, mystery, and romance that kept me invested in the story, and characters, that were relatable in their hopes and fears and vulnerabilities. The narrators were also great! Although, I preferred the girl narrator over the guy. Mostly because, she seemed to have more range of emotions and voices in her narration. Overall, I really liked the book and the interesting merge of two fairy tales you wouldn't think would go together--but surprisingly, are amazing in this book! I'm definitely looking forward to listening you the next book in the series!
