Satisfying conclusion to an original story!

Any additional comments?

As the final book in the trilogy, I found that the Retribution of Mara Dyer delivered a very satisfying conclusion to the series. It delivered ample suspense, moments of of smirking levity, romance, joy, sadness, and loss. A good book should deliver emotion, and I think between the story and Romano's narration, it did that.

With that said, the final book (as with the first two books of the series) was a bit long for the plot and could have used some extra editing to speed up the pace a bit. I understand the need for chapter breaks when switching between story lines but there were not enough of those to justify 74 (yes 74!) chapters. Unfortunately, in my opinion this book lacked some great plot twists that left me with a mouth-agape look of shocked surprise. I wish Hodkin had held back more information about various characters so that the conclusion to the story didn't end as predictably as it did.

In terms of the narration, I really liked Christy Romano. Her voicing for characters was varied enough that it was easy to follow conversations. There were only two negatives: occasional mispronunciations and some rather jarring voice-overs in parts of the book.

Overall, a good book that I couldn't put down.

nice

wel, I can't say that I loved the series but can't say I hated it either .. it is that kind of series that after a while you won't remember it at all .. Noah is another Edward with an accent but Mara was a strong character .. I loved Jamie (Jamal) he was the soul of these books .. I really wanted to know what happened to stella but I guess its an open ending there .. Daniel has always been my hero and I love him so much
I'm glad that I read the series but for me it is overhyped alot :)

Love, love,love the whole series!

So sad that the story is over, I didn't want it to end!
I thoroughly enjoyed the whole series, it kept me wanting more of the story. I'm usually good at figuring out where the story was going and who's the villains are but this kept me wondering until the end. Great writing! Love how it ended!!! Hope there'll be more series like this.

Ok Series

This is not my favorite YA series by any means ( check out Virals and the Electric Michael Vey) but it was ok. I really got tired of all the black out ,wake up elsewhere moments used throughout the series. It was like the author had no other way to segue into the next scene or into the memories. I know there is another trilogy about Noah but I’m skipping that one.

Good ending!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

It's a great storyline!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes!

Any additional comments?

I don't know why audible has it in the catagory it does--- I wouldn't think this book is acceptable for such a young age group.
