loved it

this was an amazing storyline! I love Amy's work and can't wait to go on to the next book. this series was great to see the characters change and grow

Fantastic production and story

Amy Ewing has quickly became
a favorite author of mine with The Lone City series. The fantastic plot and character development makes the story unforgettable. Erin Spencer's narration was incredible. I will be looking at all books that she's done. I highly recommend.

best series in a long time

by far one of the best overall series I've read in a long time. The storyline throughout the books has been fascinating, concise, and thoughtful. Unlike other series, where the later books devolve into winding complicated storylines that appear added on as after thoughts or are full of rambling ideas, this trilogy has offered an amazing thoughtful journey for every reader.

Read it overnight!

Wow I've never enjoyed dystopian books like this. As soon as I started reading I couldn't stop so I read it all overnight.
Especially I really liked Erin Spencer's performance she really is the fast and the radiator and I would like to read everything that she had narrated.
One thing I really didn't like was the way Violet acted. I mean because of what she did.. what happened to Lucian.. that kind of thing is exactly what I'm talking about. Was that really necessary?
And here and there Violet's act make me so annoyed.
Other than that I really enjoyed the story and I would like to read this authors other books as well.
Erin Spencer she's the best narrator.

A Great Read

Mesmerizing! Once I started reading book one, I was hooked. Read the complete set in 2 days because I couldn’t put it down.

awesome series

I've read this book and wanted to listen to something familiar and really captivating on a long drive. I was pleasantly surprised when I realized it was just as fabulous to listen to being read aloud as it was reading it myself. This series should be made into a mini series for netflix or something.

Anti-climactic

Really enjoyed all 3 books but the last one was more description than story. I wish the overthrow climax had been more climatic. It seemed more if a wrap-up instead the purpose of the entire set.

WHY DOES IT END HERE

Im so freaking sad it ends here. I feel like it doesn’t belong to end bere. I was so sad at the Acknowledgments when the author wrote “this series has come to an end” This is my favorite series along side twilight. SPOILERS. I was so sad with all the deaths in the book Im just I want another epilogue for the series.

best books ever!! better the second time!

wish there was a next book, to keep the story going. it would be nice if they found the history and learned the story.

Suspenseful

Took a little bit to get into, but once in it did not disappoint! Great book and easy read!
