The Long and Winding Road

Bear, Otter, and the Kid Chronicles, Book 4

By: TJ Klune

Narrated by: Sean Crisden

Sequel to The Art of Breathing.

Family is not always defined by blood. It's defined by those who make us whole - those who make us who we are.

And here, at the end, Bear and Otter will be tested like they've never been before.

There's a knock at the door from a little girl who has nowhere else to go.

There's a phone ringing, bringing news they do not expect.

There's a brother returning home after learning how to stand on his own.

As these moments converge, all of their lives will change forever.

Beginning in Bear, Otter, and the Kid and continuing in Who We Are and The Art of Breathing, TJ Klune has told a saga of family and brotherhood, of love and sacrifice. In this final chapter, the events of the past pave the long and winding road toward a future no one could have imagined.

I love this series so much

I am in tears, for Pete’s sake, over the end of this series. I love these people, every single one of them. What a journey. I read BAOTK first about a year ago and it was perfect. I was so happy with it, and laughed so hard over many parts, that when I read the blurbs on the following books, I didn’t read them. They sounded intense and unhappy. But in the last week I decided to try the second book. The hardest thing about that book was the lack of Sean Crisden. That one had another narrator, and he just didn’t seem right. Thankfully, Sean came back for the rest of the books. He WAS that huge family, and made them real. I finished the rest of this series one right after another. I have bought them all for my permanent library. Like Otter said of Bear, and Bear of Ty, I will never let them go.

Still Standing

This book. This series. These characters. This author. TJ Klune is an author that can evoke so much emotion with even the most banal of statements. He has created an entire family of characters that one can't help but wish to be real. I want these people to be real people, so much. I want this series to never end. Since it has to end, as all things do, I think this book was perfect.

Followed the whole epic

This series is not over the top. It’s not fancy or overly dramatic. It’s not crazy. It is a beautiful illustration of what chosen family can be and also how it is. Loved every second, even the scenes that hurt and burned.

GREAT LISTEN!!

I loved all booms in this seriers. Bear, Otter and the Kid are great. Great family and side characters. Goes to show you Blood does mean family you can make your own. Was said the story ended..

Awesome Series and Conclusion

TJ Klune has spent 10 years crafting these wonderful group of flawed characters that find a way to make life work for them and achieve happiness. They make their own family. What a great ride. Beautifully written. So loved all of the books in the series. You laugh and you cry and throughout you are pulling for these characters. THANKS!!!
