Rise

De: Anna Carey

Narrado por: Tavia Gilbert

In the stunning conclusion to Anna Carey's epic tale of romance and sacrifice, Eve must choose who to leave behind, who to save, and who to fight in her final stand against the New America.

When Eve lost her soul mate, Caleb, she felt like her world ended. Now, trapped in the palace, as a reluctant bride and unhappy princess, Eve's entire life is a lie.

The only thing that keeps her going is Caleb's memory—and the revolution he started. Eve plots to destroy the New America, beginning with the capital, the City of Sand. Will she be able to bring about a new, free world when she's called upon to perform the ultimate act of rebellion—killing her father, the King?

Super

I read this book in one day. It was that good! Best in the series!

Fun book for all ages

Any additional comments?

My kids and I both listened to this series and liked it a lot. If you like Divergent you will like this too.

A Fast Good Read (Book 3)

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

Yes' because you can kick back and relax while you listen to someone tell you a story!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Rise?

I believe it was the end when Eve finds someone!

What about Tavia Gilbert’s performance did you like?

She was excellent and had an amazing voice.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes and I pretty much did, well maybe 3 sittings!

Any additional comments?

This was a great 3rd book to the series and I hope the author continues to write more! She left it at a cliff hanger and well its not a bad ending but it leaves the reader expecting more.

Sometimes it pays to try new things.

Any additional comments?

I was hesitant to purchase this audiobook series because, although there were rave reviews about the narrator, there seemed to be a lot of negative reviews about the story. I was hooked after the first book and really enjoyed both Eve and Once. Rise kept me entertained as well, but I grew concerned when I realized I only had one hour left and what seemed to me like a lot of story still to tell. I was right to be concerned. The last hour was a whirlwind that wrapped up a lot of loose pieces, but left me wanting more. I wish the author had taken her time with the final scenes. On the upside, however, she left me wishing for spinoff series focused on the lives of a few of the central characters. To me, that is the sign of a good series.

Good read

Unlike many readers, I liked this last book in the series. I liked the role that Eve played in this book a little more than in Book 2. I thought that Eve did what needed to be done. In addition, it was nice to see that Charles was one of the good. The ending was a bit abrupt, but the best thing, the expected thing, did happen. Good series.
