The 100

De: Kass Morgan

Narrado por: Justin Torres, Phoebe Strole

The first book in the New York Times bestselling series that inspired the hit CW television show.

No one has set foot on Earth in centuries -- until now.

Ever since a devastating nuclear war, humanity has lived on spaceships far above Earth's radioactive surface. Now, one hundred juvenile delinquents -- considered expendable by society -- are being sent on a dangerous mission: to recolonize the planet. It could be their second chance at life...or it could be a suicide mission.

CLARKE was arrested for treason, though she's haunted by the memory of what she really did. WELLS, the chancellor's son, came to Earth for the girl he loves -- but will she ever forgive him? Reckless BELLAMY fought his way onto the transport pod to protect his sister, the other half of the only pair of siblings in the universe. And GLASS managed to escape back onto the ship, only to find that life there is just as dangerous as she feared it would be on Earth.

Confronted with a savage land and haunted by secrets from their pasts, the hundred must fight to survive. They were never meant to be heroes, but they may be mankind's last hope.

Not like the Show

After watching the show I just had to find the book. I would say I enjoy the show more then the book, but if I just focus on the book it was still an interesting plot with different characters.
Would you recommend it to someone else?
I would yeah, you don't have to be into science fiction to enjoy this book, although it has the typical Y/A writing and plot so if you're not into those this isn't for you. I am not one of those big romantic people, I don't like flat out romantic books where it's the main thing, this has the right amount of romance, and with interesting characters.
What were one of the more negative things in the book?
There was moments where you were unsure what they were talking about, or more like when they are talking about stuff. The flashbacks came out of no where with nothing to give you a heads up. I don't know if this is due to the author or the narrators who didn't let you know when they would change between now and flashbacks
All and all it is a good book with an interesting story and I will continue on the second book.

loved it ... more detail than the show of course

loved it and going to read the next book right now thank you for it.

Loved it!

This is one of my very favorite stories. The performances from both narrators is on point. Kass Morgan created a great universe.

I do understand this is YA

As some one who writes YA. I found the characters just kinda there. Maybe its the performance but the emotion in the words never seems protrayed properly. The nareators are clear and precise, but just kinda lack emotion. For such heavy material I feel like it could of been done much better. Tho I find most of the character reactions and line well written and never out of place.
I am a fan of the world building in the story immensley its my faveorite part. So many interesting ideas brought up. the insite in how the government works. its brilliant.

I'm here because of the TV show.

ALMOST always The original book variations of a TV show is far superior. I enjoy the TV show the 100, so I thought I'd give the book a listen. it's far to early to tell which is better. the story is fairly easy to listen too. the voice actors are meh. all in all, its just fine EXCEPT, GLASS. oh my lord. this instead of numerical chapters, each chapter is from the POV of an individual or their storyline. this ENTIRE book, from start to finish, only getting somewhat interesting literally at the very end. every GLASS chapter was written like a romance novel, worse since its teenagers. which sure romance is fine but it just goes on and on and on hearing the author describe how pathetically glass loves Luke and how much Luke loves glass and then a little drama and back to how obsessed they are and describing their love over n over n over. I almost stopped listening all together but I'm holding out that GLASS will turn into an interesting character.
