Terminated 3.5 Stars Overall, a satisfying conclusion to the series, but does not really live up to the promise of the first two books. To begin with, the entire first half with Bryn & Co. on the run is a series of disjointed capture/escape scenes strung together for no apparent reason. There are also one or two plot discrepancies Thankfully, the plot development improves at the halfway mark with the search for a “cure”, and the resolution to the Returne epidemic is realistic although somewhat Deus Ex Machina Listened for Fun (Audible) Tracking Books Read Review (Short) Overall Rating: 5.00 Story Rating: 5.00 Character Rating: 5.00 Audio Rating: 4.50 First Thought when Finished: Terminated ended in a way that wrapped up the trilogy in the most perfect of ways! BRAVO! (Also there was a moment there that I was bit scared). Overall Thoughts: YES YES YES! This is the way a series should end! There were tears, laughter, OMG moments, and "is she really going to do that? Say she isn't going to do that" moments. I can't really talk about the book without giving anything away so here is what you need to know before reading: 1)Do not read these out of order. There are only 3 so do yourself a favor and read the whole series. 2)You will need MULTIPLE Kleenexes unless you have a heart made of stone. 3)The end will surprise you. I don't mind spoilers but try to read this one spoiler free. 4)Read even if you don't like zombies. This isn't a true zombie book but more like what the series title says: Revivalist (people who have been revived after death). Audio Thoughts: Narrated by Julia Whelan /Length 9 hrs and 52 mins I sound like a broken record but Julia really did nail this narration. She was the Revivalist crew. You would not go wrong listening to these on audiobook. Final Thought: Hands down my favorite series (so far) by Rachel Caine. At the end of the second book, Bryn had been exposed to an upgrade of Returne that has made her stronger and more impervious to physical harm. It has also made her less human. She and her team are now on a desperate run to find the cure to all the Returne victims. This book is just as action packed as the first 2 in the trilogy. It is a bit on the depressing side because no matter how many times they slip through the fingers of the enemy there is one more trap waiting. I It was exciting none the less. However, I took away 1/2 star because I thought she took the easy way out on the end. It could have been better. The end of TWO WEEKS NOTICE left Bryn and Riley dosed with improved version of Returné. The new version is like a ticking bomb that is just waiting to go off. Bryn and her allies are running from assassin's and trying to stay alive while trying to find a way to kill Jane once and for all. This is another character driven series in my opinion. Each one brings something new and not one of them is unaffected by events at any turn. Bryn's background has helped her to stay strong and get through things no average person would be able to handle. Patrick surprises me with his protectiveness at every turn. Bryn and Patrick work well together but have a lot to work through. Joe is just awesome. He does not have to be there yet he is right by Bryn and Patrick's side at every turn. He has his own struggles to work through in TERMINATED and I was super proud of the way he handled himself. Riley is a big mystery most of the time. I never knew where she stood at any given moment and that made me nervous. Manny and Pansy I think shocked me the most in TERMINATED. Especially Pansy. I don't want to get too much into it but Pansy goes above and beyond and I was surprised at how much she cared about what happened to people. The ending was very satisfying. Bryn was extremely brave in her decisions and her willingness to do what most would not. I felt like everything was wrapped up nicely and everyone that should have been there at the end was there. Great end to a great series. What will Rachel bring us next? sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

Already addicted to the pharmaceutical drug that keeps her body from decomposing, Bryn has to stop a secretive group of rich and powerful investors from eliminating the existing Returne addicts altogether. To ensure their plan to launch a new military-grade strain of nanotech, the investors' undead assassin-who just happens to be the ex-wife of Bryn's lover Patrick-is on the hunt for anyone that stands in their way. And while Bryn's allies aren't about to go down without a fight, the secret she's been keeping threatens to put those closest to her in even more danger. Poised to become a monster that her allies-and her own lover-will have to trap and kill, Bryn needs to find the cure to have any hope of preserving the lives of her friends, and her own dwindling humanity.

I'm not into romancey type stories, and this one was fairly light, though infatuation between characters is needed in some of the character building. Totally understand the guy liking a good looking girl .... but having sex with a dead person, even though they are seemingly life-like? Kinda grossed me out a bit. Just that thought in the back of my head saying "Ewww... couldn't you wait til the end of book three to do this?" ( )
