Critic reviews

“Sexy and fascinating and scary...I loved loved loved it!” (P. C. Cast, New York Times best-selling author on Fallen)

Absolutely loved this series

I absolutely loved this series, Lauren Kate's an amazing author and Justine Eyre did an amazing job bring the story to life.

Characters to love and never forget.

Easy to listen to and memorable. Passion will remain my favorite. Still, I always dread the ending of a series. But at least we have a spin-off with Cam's story. So: Unforgiven is next!

Enjoyed the entire series

I really enjoyed the Fallen series & listened to all the books back to back.

I loved how the first book was depicted in the film.

I hope for more, but is a good book yet

If you could sum up Rapture: Fallen, Book 4 in three words, what would they be?

I don't know, because the book is good and disapointing at the same time. in som moments is breath taking, in anhthers get boring. So, I'm not capable of sum up in three words this book. I'd be unfair.

If you’ve listened to books by Lauren Kate before, how does this one compare?

I get a little disapointed with this book, because in the others, whe have a central point that you need to choose on who you will trust. On this book, we don't have to trust, because everybody is working together, and on the very end of the book, you see that the "everybody is friend of everybody" is not very well explained.

Which scene was your favorite?

no one in particular.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No at all.

Any additional comments?

although I have not really liked the end of the book, I think is worth hearing. The story and good, and allows the reader to understand some situations.

VERY good!

MUST have read the OTHER books in order to be able to follow this book/story.
A little wordie, but in the end all needed to be said to explain the ending...
Really glad I listened to this one and found out how it all began/ended...

In Love

I truly didn’t think I was going to enjoy this series when I first started but now I read them over and over!

Another book, PLEASE!

I honestly loved this series. The only downside is that some things were never really explained.... like, I would have loved to know more about Trevor's death. They mentioned it in the first book and it was never touched on again. Seemed odd that the event that essentially set up the start of the book was just forgotten. Also, it seemed like Cam's personal life was just coming to light and then it just dropped out of the book completely. The scene where Daniel was telling Luce that they don't talk about Cam's broken heart etc... would have been nice since it was brought up for them to continue/resolve the issue, instead of mentioning it and then never discussing it again. Aside from those two issues, I honestly loved this series. I only hope that Lauren Kate will write another book where Luce and Daniel are together as mortals... maybe have some conflict amongst the angels/demons where L&Ds help is required or something. There are a lot of ways it could go, but I just don't want there to be NO continuation with their love story, for it's now one of my favorites. I'm sad that it's over. I'll be thinking about this series for a long time.

I love this story.

I read these books years ago as they were being released and I was in love with them then and I love getting to dive back into the nostalgia of listening to them now. I fall in love with Daniel every time I read these books. Such an original take on an ancient story of the fall of angels and such a beautiful romance, and twists and turns at every corner. I wish the movie did these books justice (maybe a tv show one day) because I'd love to see this entire worlsld unfold on screen. LOVE LOVE LOVE If you love cheesy romance and a good ending to great long story, I highly recommend!!

Great! But...Still Have Some Questions.

The characters in this book had me wrapped around their fingers from the first couple of chapters. They were all very unpredictable due to the perception of the author views an angels which held me to the end. The story flowed well but in my opinion it seemed to have a little too much fluff. There was almost too much detail which was a bit irritating for me and it could just be the way Lauren Kate writes but it almost seemed as though there was too much buffer time. I'm honestly so half and half for this final book. I loved it but also was very irritated with it. I thought the ending was very fair and satisfied my need for an ending. Overall I just wish there would have been a little less unneeded detail and more physical action. I might buy this series later and try reading it on my own. Justine did a wonderful job narrating as per usual!! Love her!
