Masterminds

Anniversary Day Saga, Book 8 (Retrieval Artist Universe)

De: Kristine Kathryn Rusch

Narrado por: Jay Snyder

The fate of the Alliance hangs in the balance as the masterminds behind the Anniversary Day bombings trigger the final stages of a plan decades in the making. A plan that will bring about the total destruction of every dome on the Moon.

As Moon Security Chief Noelle DeRicci struggles with the overwhelming scope of the investigation, former Retrieval Artist Miles Flint races to save the life of a man from his daughter Talia’s past. A man with vital information regarding the identity of the masterminds who planned the Anniversary Day bombings. And deep beneath the surface of Armstrong, a dome engineer makes a chilling discovery that could crack the investigation wide open.

If only he can get someone to believe him.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"This deeply satisfying eighth entry...is a very strong payoff for the series." (Publishers Weekly)

So sad the series is over!

I love this series and am so sad that this is the last book. I have enjoyed it since the beginning and love the way each small piece has woven together throughout it. The focus is all on the story and each book contains parts of it. If you love a well crafted tale, start from book one of the retrevial artist series and work your way through. Great narration as well. I just hope that there are more tales in this series waiting to be told and that they make it into print someday.

Just as good the second time round

I love an update on all the characters—a chance to see where their paths led.

Great end to saga, but thankfully not the series

Gripping, suspenseful, satisfying. Now waiting impatiently for next Retrieval Artist novel -- can't get enough of these characters!

Excellent!

Masterminds is a good wrap up to Anniversary Day series. Be sure to read or listen to the previous books in the series before this one.

A fitting ending - but I'm glad it's over

I really like K.K. Rusch's stories in both the "Retrieval Artist" and the "Diving" universes, but this particular splitting of the "Anniversary Day Saga" into 8 different books hasn't been as satisfying. I would rather have seen three or four complete novels than eight of what are really each incomplete novellas.

That said, the writing is as good as usual, the characters we know are all here, and most of the loose ends get tied up. There's one long-term plot arc that I can think of that is still open at the end, but that may be a part of the background of politics and change taking place in this invented society and something we see progress on with each new novel.

This novella had one job - tie up the strings from the other seven. It did that, and now we can move on.
