Murdoch’s past has finally come crashing down on him. His former girlfriend. His Family. He’s been happily avoiding them for ages, trying to live something close to a normal life. But now he’s been drawn back into another one of their ludicrous attempts to bring about the end of all things.

Chase has spent the past year just trying to get away. Trying to escape the memories that won’t stop following him, the moment when his life collapsed. He’s traveled around the world trying to stay ahead of it all, but those final moments may be catching up with him at last.

Anne is tired of living in the past. She’s finally looking to the future and embracing her destiny. She’s going to lead the Family forward on their greatest, final crusade to destroy the hated Machine of their long-time adversary.

Their paths will intersect in the middle of nowhere, on an uncharted island where the walls of reality are thin...and an apocalyptic threat is tearing its way through.

About the Creator

Peter Clines was the inspiration for both the epic poem Beowulf and the motion picture Raiders of the Lost Ark, and is single-handedly responsible for repelling the Martian Invasion of 1938 that occurred in Grovers Mills, New Jersey. He grew up in the Stephen King fallout zone of Maine, where—fueled by a love of comic books, Star Wars, and Saturday morning cartoons—he started writing sci-fi and fantasy stories at the age of eight. He is the author of The New York Times best-selling time-travel adventure Paradox Bound, the sci-fi thrillers Dead Moon and The Fold, and the acclaimed Ex-Heroes series. His other works include Dead Men Can’t Complain, The Junkie Quatrain, the ongoing Carter and Kraft short story series, a collection of unproduced screenplays, and countless articles about the film and television industry. He currently lives and writes somewhere in Southern California.

To be frank, this story lacks the appeal of 14 and The Fold, two stories I truly enjoyed. What this story does is answer some questions proposed in those books, but without the charming characters and intrigue of its predecessors. In fairness, on its own this story may merit 4 stars, barely, but in comparison it pales.

Perhaps the most disappointing aspect of this story is the shift from teamwork to conflict. Whereas 14 and The Fold were journeys of discovery, both of mysteries and group dynamics, this story pits two opposing factions against one another without them being aware of the other for most of the book. When open conflict is finally realized, it seems too manufactured and anticlimactic. Actually, it is a bit of a mess.

Ray Porter is amazing, as usual. He is my favorite narrator, and his ability to make this audiobook at all enjoyable is evidence as to why.

In retrospect, I rescind the earlier 4 star comment and stand by the given 3.

Disappointing

The threshold series is an excellent series that is so creative and so well crafted. author Peter Clines always manages to come up with such unique and inventive ideas that he cleverly weaves into his stories.

I love the concept, I love the story, I love the universe he has created.

I did, however, have some criticisms about this book. my criticisms also stretch out to some of his other books and they are this: It seems lately that towards the end of the last few books he has written (about 65% of the way through) He writes so many twists and turns into the story that it becomes convoluted and borderline silly. I applaud his level of creativity but he doesn't have to write every little thing that he comes up with into every story. this book gets so complicated near the end that I started to lose focus and became a little disinterested.

Peter Clines rocks

I love Ray Porter’s performance (who doesn’t…) & Peter Cline’s writing is a perfect mix of humor/horror/intelligent stylism, but he kind of missed the mark on an “original” novel in this series. I’ve not read/listened to “Dead Moon,” and not sure I will. I ran through this audiobook after listening to “14” (I thought it was ok at first, but then it stuck with me especially when I heard this one, elevating it just from pure-comparison). I have to agree with one reviewer summing it up as “character reactivity” storytelling, I didn’t get a sense of who these people were, and only cared for Veek — again, a result of having heard “14” just before — but the character-development otherwise was pretty absent here. Except for Murdoch, I actually liked the poor villain, but again this wasn’t a real novel to me, just a “threshold got crossed again! time to patch it up!” situation. I still really enjoyed it, but don’t expect anything remarkable beyond that “summer reading” level, or your expectations are likely to be dashed. Would listen again if I could go back in time, but wouldn’t start with this one in Threshold Universe. I actually really would say Paradox Bound should be in this line-up, faceless men are actually more intriguing and delightfully disgusting than random quid-monsters with hoover-tentacles, lol. Not a hater at all, just lending perspective. I’d really recommend “The Dark” by Jeremy Robinson, if you like this kind of wit & more ridiculousness! Enjoy ;)

Enjoyable & Redundant “Threshold” Installment

Not the best in the series, but a transition to what I hope is a better story to wrap it up.

Meh
