Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

Best book yet

I had high expectations for this book, and even those were exceeded. The best new book over the cradle series, I can't wait for the next one.

Amazing book! Can’t wait for the next one.

I read the first 6 Cradle books on Kindle. This was my first audiobook and first Audible download. I have been absolutely surprised by how much I enjoyed the narration and how much hearing the different characters’ voices added to my overall enjoyment of the book. I will definitely be downloading more audiobooks in the future.

With that being said, I want to now take time to highlight the greatness that is the Cradle series. One of my favorite if not my favorite series of all time. The different stories and plots keep me interested at all times, and I often find myself tracking backwards in the book or Audiobook to reread/rehear something because I enjoyed it so much the first time. Can’t wait for book #8 in the series. I would say my anticipation level is about the same as I was waiting for new Game of Thrones episodes to come out (which is saying something).

still a good series

This was another great addition to this series, I can't wait to see what happens next!
p.s. don't shy away because some listeners were unsatisfied with the ending, it is well worth the time!!

Good read

The tournament type is a bit overdone. Still enjoyable. The ending wasn't what is expected and it's nice for once to not just have a 2d MC.

good story but this feels very in incomplete

I seems to me that this story ended to early just to keep it's length in the same as the others.

Everything it should have been!

You would expect some amazing action by this point in the series... and this installation delivers! Not only is the action everything it should be, but the depth of the relationships between the characters is even more than I was ready for; really elevated the final battle to a level I did not expect! so good!!

Good as always but beware cliffhanger

Very engaging and moves plot forward, but less so than the other books. And the ending isn’t satisfying or an ending. I’ll probably wait until the series is over to finish it so this doesn’t happen again

More

I need more! This is, by far, my favorite series! I’ve read and listened to hundreds of books, and this is hands down the most engaging and entertaining series in my collection. Can’t wait for the next one

Uncrowned.

I don’t quite know where to begin. I read these books like I was watching Netflix or something like that. This was absolutely perfect. Gratitude.
