Publisher's summary

Treena and Vance think they've escaped the numbers game forever. They're wrong.

After Treena's disastrous attempt to unite the nation, she has the deaths of hundreds haunting her dreams. Now, with hatred and accusations following her past the border, she's determined to leave that horrible day behind and find a peaceful, uneventful life with Vance and the settlers. But when she starts seeing mysterious figures hiding in the abandoned cities at night and uncovers a strange desert population, she realizes there's a danger much greater than NORA to worry about - and she just abandoned her people to their fate.

Vance is a prisoner. Being rejected by the girl he loves and put on trial for betraying his clan are bad enough, but now he's been framed for a crime he never committed. Their less-than-perfect refuge has become the political game of a madman, and Vance is the only one who can stop it - if he can keep from being executed first.

Treena and Vance are still very much in the game, and this time it will take everything they have to save those they love.

Amazing!!!

I loved how you get to see Trina and Vance grow into the people that they should be without all the drama of NORA. Getting to see them shaping into the amazing people they are meant to be even with all the underhandedness going on around them and all the lies and games is really awesome. It's wonderful to see someone show that just because your situation is bad doesn't mean you have to sink down to everyone else's level. I can't believe how there is so much corruption at the top no matter which government it is. I know that is how it really is a lot of the time in everyday life anyway but it still shocks me that people can be that way even seeing all the suffering that they cause because they treat people so wrong. I love reading about someone who is standing up and working to make a difference and a better place for the rest of the world. Stacy did an amazing job as usual and I can't wait to hear what she brings to the rest of the series. She's so amazing at bringing so much emotion to the books she narrates it makes the book even more amazing than it already was.

This series is good!

Any additional comments?

I bought the first book in this series when I realized this was the second so I would be up to speed. Dang, I got hooked fast. So happy to have discovered Rebecca Rode. Stacey Glemboski's narration was a perfect fit.I am looking forward to more! I love finding books with new dystopian twists. So, I really need to know what's going on and I need book 3 asap guys!

I was gifted this book in exchange for an honest and unbiased review. I am so grateful that I was because it really is a great story.

perfect sequel

Any additional comments?

Such a great sequel to Numbers Game! Numbers Ignite was fast-paced and action-packed, and avoided the pitfalls so many middle-of-a-trilogy books fall into. Treena and Vance are apart for most of the book, which initially I wasn't sure about, but Rode makes each of their stories equally gripping, so that I enjoyed swapping between the two characters. I was lucky enough to listen to the audio version, and the narrator also did a fantastic job bringing this story to life. Another great read!

Keep Them Coming!

Would you consider the audio edition of Numbers Ignite to be better than the print version?

Don't know, only listened to it.

What other book might you compare Numbers Ignite to and why?

The Catalyst Series because it is slightly different in it's approach to a possible EOTWAWKI genre.

Which character – as performed by Stacey Glemboski – was your favorite?

Still Vance.

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

Yes

I was provided this free review copy audio-book by the author or narrator." This review is for the audio copy of Numbers Ignite: Numbers Game Saga Book 2 by Rebecca Rode and narrated by Stacey Glemboski. The story continues and it is still very interesting and kept me engaged and listening as much as possible. The character development was maintained, the story line continues to be not what I expect. It continues to be a refreshing change from the norm. Stacey did a great job, again, in narrating the story. She makes it come alive in my mind. As stated in my previous review of book 1 this is a series, but as it stands you can stop if you wished with the book with some amount of closure. But, it left me wanting to know more of what develops and where the plot and story line can go. I will definitely continue reading (listening to) this series and the other shorts. Keep up the great work Rebecca and Stacey!

Numbers sequel is an alright follow up

Any additional comments?

I received this book in exchange for my honest review from Audiobook Boom/Blast.

Numbers Ignite was a good middle book. But that is definitely what it is - a transitional middle book in a series. It has the job of bridging the chaos and setting up the plot for the big finale by agitating the problem, or creating a new one. And this book? It created a new one. Yes, NORA is trouble and Treena's escapades in the first book showed us we couldn't expect anything good from that government structure. But Numbers Ignite showed us what is going on outside of NORA's walls, and a lot is going on.

The second book shows us the outside settlements and tribes and explores issues with their leadership structures. I felt that too much time was spent frolicking in the first half of the book. I guess frolicking isn't the right word since Treena "Amy" was recovering from a snake bite, but not much was happening at first. I also felt this book was getting heavy in the political aspects of leadership, and that's kind of where my eyes start to glaze over (or my ears tune out, as it were).

The ending was great, though. Treena and Vance find each other in scary circumstances, their survival isn't certain. The end of the book is where the plot just explodes with information. NORA is bad, yes, but there's another entity out there that is even more menacing. It all leads up to whatever will happen in the next book. So, now we wait.

Just as Good as the First

In many of the YA series, the first book is usually the best, but I thought that this book was just as good as the first book. I listened to almost the entire thing in one day. I thought that I knew the direction this book would go, but I was pleasantly surprised.

This book picks up where the last one left off. I will say that if you haven't already listened to the last book that you should definitely go back and get that one first...

Narrator was also great as usual.

I received a free copy of this audiobook from the author, publisher, or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review. I was NOT required to write a positive review and this reflects my honest opinion of the work.

GO TREENA GO!! GREAT 2ND BOOK!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Numbers Ignite?

When Treena enters the jail...

I love this series...and cant wait for the next one! Treena is betrayed by her people and her empress title is stolen from her by her boyfriend...saying that since she had been injured and was in a coma, it was the right decision....Well Treena says No Dice and escapes Nora, in search of Vance! While in the desert she is bitten by a snake and almost dies, but is rescued by another clan of people that have lived peacefully underground for a long while...well war is in the air..and they have to escape...Treena goes ahead and finds Vance...but he is about to be executed....Treena has to figure out how to save the day...and even though a lot of peoples lives are lost...Treena strikes a deal with Dresden to try and make peace...gets to be with Vance and hopefully save everyone in the process!

SUPER GREAT AND I NEED BOOK 3 ASAP!!!!

I thought this was a really good book held my attention thru out I am going to read the first book today. I recommend you buy it well worth it I received this book free from the narrator author for an honest unbiased option.

loved this book

What about Stacey Glemboski’s performance did you like?

i loved everything

Any additional comments?

i got this book for an honest review. this book was just as exciting as the first one. I listened to it while on my way to the beach last week and it kept me entertained the whole way.

Clans Unite!

I love jumping right smack dab in the middle of a series. You hear names that you should know and things that have happened and you sit there scratching your head wondering what the hell are they talking about. Thank God, Rebecca Rode explains things that have happened in the past so you don't feel like a moron reading this book. It was not hard to figure what was going on just a couple of chapters into the book. And, boy, what a book it is.

It starts off with Treena getting bite by a snake and then being stuck underground with a new clan that is lying to her. Just what you need after all the stuff you just went through. And of course Vance is no where to be found.

Stacey Glemboski did a good job at keeping the pace going rather well and defining each and every character.

If you are looking for a delightful read with a couple of twists added just for fun, I would recommend this for you to read.
