The Vault of Dreamers

Vault of Dreamers Series # 1

De: Caragh M. O'Brien

Narrado por: Emily Woo Zeller

The Forge School is the most prestigious arts school in the country. The secret to its success: every moment of the students' lives is televised as part of the insanely popular Forge Show, and the students' schedule includes twelve hours of induced sleep meant to enhance creativity. But when first-year student Rosie Sinclair skips her sleeping pill, she discovers there is something off about Forge. In fact, she suspects that there are sinister things going on deep below the reaches of the cameras in the school. What's worse is, she starts to notice that the ridges of her consciousness do not feel quite right. And soon, she unearths the ghastly secret that the Forge School is hiding - and what it truly means to dream there.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The plot is fast paced at the beginning and end." ( School Library Journal)

Clever

This was clever, well written, and compelling. I'm very interested to see where things go in the next book. I didn't anticipate it being a YA book when I started it, but I think it plays well to audiences of every age.

Interesting story

It is a fun story. it does get frustrating because the main character is like so many in other books. they try to make these girls brave and morally good. standing up in what they believe in. but what it comes out to is a frustrating main character who makes really stupid choices that get them into more trouble than what needs to be for the story to remain interesting. but even w that overdone trait it is a cool story. and it is very unique in the concept.

i cant stand the narrator though. i am quite picky i know. but she over acts and makes that weird wobble (not sure how else to describe it) with her voice that gets really annoying really fast. its just too much.

Loved it but

Well I was completely in all the way thru
Love the character rosie—a very easy, engaging listen—with a TERRIBLE ending and way too many threads of forgotten characters…felt like the author was done writing and threw n the towel…is there a sequel??
So disappointed

Interesting and then meh

I wanted to like it more but the ending was just too ridiculous. In the end I was just reading to finish

Very interesting plot...

Another Tantor audiobook for the win! I cannot recall a single book published by tjem that jas been bad.
This is a truly intriguing & terrifying premise at the same time.
Off to book 2...

Loose ends

Let down ending of story. The hope of victory is vague and not uplifting. Too many loose ends of a good story.

Good concept

Very interesting concept, I think the plot needed more development and it would have been more believable if it were set in college rather than highschool.

A must listen

Very good story, a little long winded and lots of background but the last 30 minutes are amazing.

Amazingly chilling

For some reason I am very interested in plots about living in a virtual world and reality TV. This book takes you inside p reality show and you get a little romance. Be aware,towards the end it is in my opinion not for those under 14. The ending made me buy the second book at once. Nearing the end of that one I am thrilled the last book will be out this month. The plot is as unique as “The program” and “Everlife”. Unlike those where book one rocked, while the next sucked. This book is amazing and book too equally awesome.

For high schoolers?

this was recommended to me by a 30 something but I think I would have enjoyed it more if I were in high school.
