Through the Ever Night

De: Veronica Rossi

Narrado por: Michael Goldstrom

A world-defying love is put to the ultimate test in the New York Times and USA Today bestselling sequel to Veronica Rossi's ""masterpiece,"" Under the Never Sky (Examiner.com ). In this second book in her spellbinding Under the Never Sky trilogy, bestselling author Veronica Rossi combines fantasy and dystopian elements to create a love story as perilous as it is unforgettable.

It's been months since Aria last saw Perry. Months since Perry was named Blood Lord of the Tides, and Aria was charged with an impossible mission. Now, finally, they are about to be reunited. But their reunion is far from perfect. The Tides don't take kindly to Aria, a former Dweller. And with the worsening Aether storms threatening the tribe's precarious existence, Aria begins to fear that leaving Perry behind might be the only way to save them both.

Threatened by false friends and powerful temptations, Aria and Perry wonder, Can their love survive through the ever night?

good enough that I'll try the next book

I prefer the narrator from book 1, but the story kept me interested and I guess I'll try book 3.

Middle Book Syndrome

I will admit I am a bit undecided on this one. It has been a couple days since I finished this book and honestly I am having a hard time vividly remembering it. I think that in itself says it all...

Middle book syndrome is a lot like middle child syndrome. It’s not the exciting beginning where everything is new and full of wonder. It's not the finale where all is uncovered and the pieces fall into place to reveal a beautiful picture you couldn’t even imagine, no the middle book is just that, the middle. Full of whatevers and what if's.

I still found myself enjoying this book and if you loved Through the Ever Sky then don't miss this one, for I have a feeling book three will be getting 5 stars all around!

Great story and narration!

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

I really liked the first book in the series, even though it felt like it was too short. This book had plenty of movement within the story, and was even better than the first!

What did you like best about this story?

The author does a good job at making everything seem real in a world that is completely unlike our own. Super human senses and a world where the climate has gone wacko seems entirely believable when phrased and described like she does. I also enjoyed the further development of the two main characters Aria and Perry and their relationship. The author doesn't do the typical "split up/now they hate it each other for some reason that isn't even true" that many authors do in the second book in the series. She doesn't keep it all hunky dory either but it's enough to make me happy. Kudos to one of my favorite books this year!

What about Michael Goldstrom’s performance did you like?

Michael Goldstrom has a smooth manly voice. At times he has to narrate as Aria, the main female character and does more than a believable job! (A hard thing for a man to do I must say.)

The second book was as good as the first

I really like this series of books. I also liked the reader of the second book better than book 1. It kept me interested and now looking forward to book 3

Great book!

I really love this series. it is passionate and so well written.
Start with Under the Nerer Sky (book 1) which is also brilliant! If you can read the novella 'Liv and Roar Under the Never Sky' I would read it first, but you don't have to read the novella to understand book 2 if you have read book 1. It is not on audible.com, but it is pretty short and it really gives you a nice background.
I didn't love the narrator, but he wasn't distracting bad or anything.

Decent - But Lacks Immediacy

This was a decent read - strong writing and fewer plot holes than most YA dystopian made it a interesting if bleak second novel.

In this second installment, the two main characters are separated for nearly the whole book. Each has a mission but minor stuff happens and the characters mope over missing each other and because they are in a romeo/juliet type of situation.

I honestly found this book a bit boring. As with the first book, it lacked immediacy and a real sense of danger. Nearly all characters are morally balanced and lacking the viciousness I'd expect in a 'mad max' type of scenario. But even odder, the question of nurture vs nature is explored and the 'city dweller' girl who had everything done for her physically is able to pick up fighting, do long treks, etc., because "her father was an outsider so she is half outsider." I honestly never considered adaptability to a harsh environment a genetic trait.

Also inexplicable for me are the decision made by people in the story. People do things because they are hard headed - and no one seems to feel any fear or worry (this includes all the side characters).

Again, the book seemed well written - better than a lot of YA Dystopian out there. But it really lacked enough emotion and immediacy to draw me in.

Decent series

Decent series so far. Interesting switching from a female narrator to male in the second book.

great book

this is the second read through the trilogy and it was as good as the first. I will have to say that the reader is slow but if you speed it up x1.15 it is way better other than that great book

Awesome!

This story so far is one of my faves. The characters are amazing, the story is intricate and well thought out, and the setting is wild and exciting. Definitely recommend :)

awesome trilogy.

loved it. I have read all three books four times. can't get enough. please make a movie.
