About this listen

Ruby can’t look back. Fractured by an unbearable loss, she and the kids who survived the government’s attack on Los Angeles travel north to regroup. Only Ruby can keep their highly dangerous prisoner in check. But with Clancy Gray, there's no guarantee you're fully in control, and everything comes with a price.

When the Children's League disbands, Ruby rises up as a leader and forms an unlikely allegiance with Liam's brother, Cole, who has a volatile secret of his own. There are still thousands of other Psi kids suffering in government "rehabilitation camps" all over the country. Freeing them - revealing the governments unspeakable abuses in the process - is the mission Ruby has claimed since her own escape from Thurmond, the worst camp in the country.

But not everyone is supportive of the plan Ruby and Cole craft to free the camps. As tensions rise, competing ideals threaten the mission to uncover the cause of IANN, the disease that killed most of America's children and left Ruby and others with powers the government will kill to keep contained. With the fate of a generation in their hands, there is no room for error. One wrong move could be the spark that sets the world on fire.

Best in the series

This book is definitely the best book in the entire series. Not a single moment of boredom or slowness. I was very sad to see the series come to a finale with this book but it was done so wonderfully, it didnt feel rushed at all. And great performance by the narrator.

In Love With This Book

Third book in the series didn't disappoint! Such vivid pictures created, pulled so deeply into the characters and their emotions. It was a perfect ending, I really felt the closure that the story was complete.

thoroughly enjoyable series.

so far its been a fantastic series.
i would have liked to see some characters develop a bit more. but there's only so much you can fit into a book without it getting too irrelavant.

slow and predictable ending

the series was good and well written, but slows down and does not draw the reader in as you reach the climax and conclusion. great premise, but feels cut off to make a trilogy possible.

I liked it more as an audiobook!

When I first read it years ago there were things that didn’t really click in my mind, but now I’ve listened to the series and Amy McFadden gives such a great performance acting out the different characters that it actually added a lot to the story for me. That is rare. I wasn’t convinced by her style at the beginning of book 1, but with more characters and Ruby’s character development it shone more for me.

Enjoyed

I really enjoyed all of the book and how much the character development. In the highs and low how they got themselves through it. The end was nice and can’t wait for the next book.
