Thirds: Book Eight

In a matter of days, Dex has been kidnapped, tortured, killed, revived, become half Therian, offered the chance to become a spy, and accepted a proposal to marry his jaguar Therian boyfriend, Sloane Brodie. It's been a lot to take in, and although Dex is still trying to wrap his head around everything that's happened, he knows he has to move forward.

After the events of Smoke & Mirrors, Dex and Sloane find themselves in one of the most frightening situations of all: revealing the truth to their Destructive Delta family. When the dust settles, nothing will ever be the same, and it's up to Dex to prove that in the face of change, the one thing that will always remain the same is family.

Emotional

Love this small bit of story. This made me love Ash more and more. I understand why this story needed to be told and don’t mind the credit I spent for it. Now two more to go!!

Another great story...

I have never been disappointed by a Thirds story. Always the right balance of action, mystery, humor and romance. I look forward to the next book.

Audible version too expensive

I love the story. Have all except the last one and became addicted to listening instead of reading while I work. Unfortunately the price all of the sudden tripled. What the heck people. I also miss being able to by the kindle book and the audible together and have them synced. What am I missing here.

This series just keeps getting better.

Any additional comments?

I love Mark Westfield’s narration for this series! I have yet to be disappointed by his narration of one of the THIRDS books. It’s got great character voices and good pacing…I just pop in my ear buds and then sit back, relax, and enjoy.

Taking place immediately following the events of Smoke & Mirrors, this story follows Dex and Sloane telling the team about the changes in Dex and, ultimately, about the changes to come to Destructive Delta.

“I know we’re the ones pushing this change, but we’re in this together. We always have been, and we always will be. Whatever happens, whatever you need, Sloane and I will be there for you.”

This series just keeps getting better. I had quite a few questions at the end of Smoke & Mirrors, particularly regarding Dex’s motives and was really happy they are looked at more in depth in this short, but action packed, installment.

It’s a short novella, but it’s got a lot packed in it, and it’s all done with cohesion, setting up the series for what’s still to come.

**~~**
Their future might be uncertain, but one thing wasn’t— no matter what happened or what they faced, they had a family to come back to, one that grew stronger with every passing day. Destructive Delta wasn’t just a team. It wasn’t a badge or a patch on their sleeve. It was home.

I look forward to more THIRDS action – especially on audio!

Note: For the sticklers be warned – Westfield doesn’t give Hudson an English accent for some reason and his voice for Cael seemed different to me than in the rest of the series. He also has audible intakes of breath before speaking – often.

Westfield nails it...again

Sometimes you come across a series where the audiobook is just as good as reading the actual ebook. That is the case with the THIRDS, and maybe even more so with this story. This novella is the bridge to the upcoming new side series based on our boys (and girls) becoming TIN agents, and so it was even more important for me to listen carefully, the second go round, so that I didn’t miss anything and was properly prepped for the future.

More importantly, Mark Westfield still does a stellar job with his performance and with keeping our characters voices distinct so that we always know who is speaking. His Dex and Ash impersonations are the best. I especially loved those two in this book. They have so much to come to terms with, and it was key to keeping them easily recognizable for the listener…and Mark kills it.

This is definitely a series that gets better and better, and what a great way to recapture the magic of a beloved book than to go back and listen to it in audio. Mark Westfield nails it again.
