Publisher's summary

"My Firstlife is over, but my Everlife is only now beginning."

With her last living breath, Tenley "Ten" Lockwood made her choice and picked her realm in the Everlife. Now, as the war between Troika and Myriad rages, she must face the consequences.

Because Ten possesses a rare supernatural ability to absorb and share light, the Powers That Be have the highest expectations for her future - and the enemy wants her neutralized. Fighting to save her Secondlife, she must learn about her realm from the ground up while launching her first mission: convincing a select group of humans to join her side before they die. No pressure, right?

But Ten's competition is Killian, the boy she can't forget - the one who gave up everything for her happiness. He has only one shot at redemption: beating Ten at a game she's never even played. As their throw-downs heat up, so do their undeniable feelings, and soon Ten will have to make another choice: love or victory.

great world, terrible characters

The narrators voice is perfect for how grinding and terrible this book is. The world building and ideas for the Ever life is incredibly interesting, which is why I stuck through , but at some points it's just soft porn for teens, compete with tongue thrusting in detail. This book consists mostly whining and dreaming how the baddest boy loves her and how much she misses him and how amazing he is and how great he is and how he smells like her favourite things ECT ECT ECT. if you enjoy listening to a winey, stubborn know nothing bull headed teenager complain, this is the book for you. The first book was decent, but this is rediculious. If the author had cut out most of the filler whining, she could have cut 5 hours and completed the series.

Lifeblood, Life lesson

I listened to both books in thus series and my only disappointment is that I have to wait for the next installment!
I'm an adult but I enjoy a lot of the YA novels. With that being said, this book offers much more than a fantasy sci-fi love story, it offers lessons in love & forgiveness. It embraces a change from starting off 1 way then changing to become a better person. The fight for the soul of Tenley (Ten) Lockwood is how the story begins. There's a 1st life, a second life then a third in The Rest. Tenley falls for bad boy Killian Flynn. The storyline between the two is one of the best in YA I've come across. The narration is top notch! Definitely a fantastic story and I highly recommend it!

love love love!

I'm so excited for the 3rd to come out! amazing story! if your a fan of hunger games or divergent series you will love these

Lifeblood

Honestly one of my favorite books this year. already have listen to it multiple times and I just can't get enough. just make sure to read or listen to the first book before starting this one.

Some books are just made to be Audiobooks!!!

Adventure, passion, love, strength, battles, friendship, family and everything & anything else, this story has it all! Add in fantastic Narrators and this story just gets better!

Tenley “Ten” Lockwood made her choice even though it cost her the love of her Everlife, Killian Flynn and the life of her best friend Archer Prince. Being committed to Myriad, Killian is now her enemy because Ten chose the light of Troika. But her Everlife and Troika are not what she was expecting. She is believed to be a Conduit and is put on a bit of a pedestal that she doesn't want, doesn't deserve and doesn't think should be done in Troika. And then there is a traitor in the midst. How could anyone choose the darkness of Myriad over the light and love of Troika?! Against all odds though is the loyalty that Killian shows her time and time again. He fights by her side, forced to kill fellow Myriadians and Troikans to protect Ten and to act as though his loyalty is to Myriad and that he is faking any feelings for Ten. Or is he truly fooling Ten?!

Can't stop listening

I love all of Gena's books, and this one is no exception. It was really difficult to stop listening.

love this book!

Honestly love this series. The story line sucks you in and makes you feel everything. Literally cried at the end!

Best Books EVER

I can't say how awesome this series is in 15 amount of words, so justtrustmeitsbetterthanharrypotterthedarktowerseriesandstartrekallcombined.

Excellent Gimme More!

I absolutely, got so caught up in this book and I listened to it many times! I love the whole premiss of the book good vs evil and how you may not even know that it's evil until it's too late. I adore Emma Galvin she is perfect as Ten. I love anything she does. I think both Archer and Killian are wonderful characters and are easy to fall in love with. I have already read the second book and can't wait for the third!!!!

It's a mix of her other series...

I love Gina's books. However this series is a combination of her Alice in Zombieland and Kresley Cole's Arcana Chronicles. Narration is awesome but I have mixed feelings about the series. I've listened only because like I said I love her books but I don't know... wish she would work on the Intertwined series instead.
