Let down!

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

I guess. I wanted to get through it to see what the grand finally was.

Would you ever listen to anything by John W. Vance again?

Yes

What about Guy Williams’s performance did you like?

Always like his performance.

What happened?

Seems as if the author lost interest. While the series started off great, the way it ended just seemed rushed. If you listened to the first two books, might as well see how it all ends as you can easily finish this one in a day and still have time to start another book!

An end I didn't expect

As most people do, I try and figure out how the book/series will end..... And I was completely wrong. Good story and even better performance.

Time well spent.

I decided to try the "audible app" on my phone as a way to kill time while traveling for work, I was pleasantly surprised with the book series, well written, good narration. definitely made long hours traveling more enjoyable.

The end

Disappointed that this story ended. I would recommend this trilogy to any fan of this genre.

Expected more...

The first two books in this series were amazing. It's not that the quality of writing fell off but I feel like the author just kind of threw in the towel in regards to the story itself.

Many people will be unhappy with this book due to the fact it doesn't end in a way pleasing to the average reader. That being said, my beef is more with the effort given to the storyline, not that it was such an abrupt ending. Vance did the equivalent to putting in your second string team when down late in a game...just kind of gave up on what could have been one of the best apocalyptic/dystopian fiction series to come out in along time.

Dad-gum that was a great series!

I've already listened to The Defiant as well. I can't wait until the next release. Keep'em coming Mr. Vance!

Regards,

Marcus

Excellent Ending

I really enjoyed the trilogy and look forward to reading more books by this author. This series was very exciting.

Worth reading to finish up the trilogy

I enjoyed the story but at times there were to many stories going on at once. There are some very surprising twists and turns that made it interesting. You can make your own conclusions as to how the book was wrapped up. I am still trying to decide.

So disappointed, returning

The blurb is totally misleading. Devin doesn't transform, but remains the useless twit he was in the beginning. Devin, next time you meet an evil pirate on top of your woman, just shoot him rather than scream and blather about how you don't have time for this. I was screaming aloud obscenities at him.

Travis, no "solacing" going on there, more like arguing than anything. Our brilliant and heroic marine feels every bone in his body that this is bad news so instead of hitting the gas and driving away, walks into a trap.

Instead of what I was anticipating where all the characters would finally meet up and have some resolution, many things just felt manufactured and unbelievably stupid as if the author was fed up with his story and needed to end things.

Pathetic and sad little story, so much so I have to return it. What a let down compared to the first book.
