Silver Elite

By: Dani Francis

Narrated by: Amanda Dolan

Brought to you by Penguin.

In this sizzling dystopian romance, perfect for fans of­ Fourth Wing ­and ­The Hunger Games, your secrets can be a death sentence, and there are rules to survival:

TRUST NO ONE.

Twenty-year-old Wren Darlington is not your ordinary Mod. She’s one of the most powerful in existence.

But her world is divided. On the Continent, being a known Modified means certain death, as the Primes - those immune to the biotoxin that nearly wiped out the population 150 years ago - want nothing more than to eliminate those who were enhanced by the toxin and developed psychic powers.

LIE TO EVERYONE.

Wren has survived all these years by concealing her abilities and keeping a low profile while doing what she can to aid the rebel Uprising in fighting against the Primes’ oppressive rule. But one careless mistake places her in the crosshairs of the Continent’s military, and she is forced to join their most elite program: Silver Block. Unwittingly, her enemy has given her - and the Uprising - the perfect opportunity to strike a devastating blow from inside their ranks.

AND WHATEVER YOU DO, DON’T FALL FOR YOUR GREATEST ENEMY.

That is, if she can keep her powers hidden, survive training, and prove herself to Cross Redden, her cocky, maddeningly attractive commanding officer.

Despite the explosive chemistry between them, Wren cannot let Cross get in the way of her mission. But as war rages between Mods like her and those who aim to destroy them, emotions run high and secrets are revealed, forcing Wren to decide how far she’s willing to go to protect herself . . . and how much of the Continent is worth saving.

Critic reviews

The adult dystopian romance I’ve been wanting for the longest time . . . I’m absolutely obsessed!

Thoroughly addictive – I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough

Brilliant!

It’s impossible to put down! A must read! This is Hunger Games and Fourth Wing all combined.

I hope there will be a book 2

Where do i begin? Extremely engaging plot, had me hooked from page 1. I was hooked to this book for two days. I could not stop listening. I wished it was dual POV cause i would have loved to hear the mmc thoughts. This book left me with a book hangover 🥺

pffff

reconised bits and pieces of this romantasy mixed march. could have been ok... if by mid-book I did not want to tear the book down (if I was reading it on paperback). I hated the main character. She is more a socially challenged teenager than anything else and for me this was a trait that killed the hole story. Might finish it some day but definitely not in the near future.

Trash

DNF

Wren is a bad ass. How do you know? She tells you. Every few paragraphs.
Wren is the most powerful of her kind. She knows this.
So it comes as a complete surprise to her when she turns out to be the most powerful of her kind.

Wren meets a sexy bad-ass.
And it is made painfully obvious that he can't be... W.
I didn't finish and do not intend to. But do I need to?

The writing is terrible and shallow.
The plot holes are unbelievable.

Silver Elite.
Immediately?

Show don't tell means nothing here.
