Death and the Girl He Loves

Darklight, Book 3

De: Darynda Jones

Narrado por: Lorelei King

From Darynda Jones, the New York Times bestselling author of Death and the Girl Next Door and Death, Doom & Detention, comes Death and the Girl He Loves, the exciting third book in her new young adult series Darklight

The fate of the world is not something a girl wants on her shoulders, and that is especially true for Lorelei McAlister. Unfortunately for her, that is exactly where the world's fate has decided to take up residence. Lorelei has seen firsthand the horrors that lie beneath our everyday world. And those horrors are getting her friends killed. Because of this, she agrees to leave the sanctity of her hometown and is sent to a different world entirely. A boarding school. But even here she is being watched. Someone knows what she is. What she carries inside her soul. And on top of that she's seeing visions. This is nothing new for Lorelei. But these visions are something more: death, destruction, and the end of the world. Lorelei must face the fact that there are people who want her dead, and no matter where she goes, no matter how far she runs, the lives of her friends and family are in mortal peril. Lucky for her, her friends and family include the handsome Angel of Death, a fiercely protective half-angel, and a ragtag group of loyal supporters who aren't afraid to get a little dirty in the name of fighting pure evil.

love Darynda!

loved this book and this series! Have listened to several times and have enjoyed every time.

Best of the three, awesome ending

What made the experience of listening to Death and the Girl He Loves the most enjoyable?

I love listening to Lorelei King - she is a wonderful reader and gives distinct personalities to all of her characters.

What other book might you compare Death and the Girl He Loves to and why?

I jumped into this series because I loved Darynda's Charley Davidson series. This is not quite as wonderful as Charley's story, but it was VERY good in its own right.

What does Lorelei King bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She gives heart and depth and humor to each of the characters. She weaves a wonderful story, like being read to at bedtime. She's a terrific reader.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This finale to the series was well worth the read. I loved the twist at the end - it reminded me of the Twilight finale. I loved the journey of Lorelei as she goes away to boarding school and makes such great friends that one of the girls accompanies her back to her hometown and is crucial to the success or failure of the world's future. I also enjoyed the fact that the depth of Lorelei's friendships defied the fickle finger of fate and proved that no matter what, they were meant to be together.

Any additional comments?

Jump into this series, you will not be disappointed. Also, seek out Lorelei King as a reader, she's wonderful.

Good Ending For A Great & Fun Trilogy!!

Darynda Jones is really good and fun author, even though her books talk about the end of the world and end of everyone, still you keep on laughing while reading these books. She is a fantastic author and I am a big fan of her work.

Death and the Girl He Loves started in a new school with new kids, during this book nothing was slow, I didn't get bored at all. It was an event after the other.. And its ending was a new one, you wouldn't expect this ending and that was great, its always boring when you figure out how a book will end.

Lorelei King is a fantastic narrator as usual, and she had done a great job narrating this trilogy, I hope that she will keep on narrating future work of Darynda Jones.

I'm sad that this trilogy has ended, but this means another series could come now from Darynda Jones, whatever it is, i can't wait for it.

loved it

a great ending to a wonderful series.
recommend to paranormal fans. Good at being age appropriate.

Enjoyed it

I really liked all 3books. As far as the narrator goes she's awesome. They picked the perfect person to narrate darynda jones" books

I am sad it's over!

I fell in love with the characters like I do with all darynda's books. I could listen to them forever! The ending was unexpected and very lovely done.

Great YA series even better for adults

Love The writing and narration! Story line is simple but fun and like usual, the relationship banter will make you giggle! Love all 3 books! Hope there will be more! Dyranda is an amazing writer!!! Lorelei is an amazing narrator!

Not the ending I thought.

As always this book was just as good as the rest of hers. When you think one thing is going to happen she changes it up to be something completely unexpected.

Loved it. What a great culmination.

Beautifully written and masterfully read. The twist was unexpected and wonderful. I adore Lorelei King's mastery of the human voice. I'm going to look for books she's read.
