Monsters of Men

Chaos Walking, Book 3

De: Patrick Ness

Narrado por: Nick Podehl, Angela Dawe, MacLeod Andrews

The riveting Chaos Walking trilogy by two-time Carnegie Medalist Patrick Ness.

“This is science fiction at its best, and is a singular fusion of brutality and idealism that is, at last, perfectly human.” (Booklist, starred review)

As a world-ending war surges around them, Todd and Viola face monstrous decisions. The indigenous Spackle, thinking and acting as one, have mobilized to avenge their murdered people. Ruthless human leaders prepare to defend their factions at all costs, even as a convoy of new settlers approaches. And as the ceaseless Noise lays all thoughts bare, the projected will of the few threatens to overwhelm the desperate desire of the many. The consequences of each action, each word, are unspeakably vast: To follow a tyrant or a terrorist? To save the life of the one you love most, or thousands of strangers? To believe in redemption, or assume it is lost? Becoming adults amid the turmoil, Todd and Viola question all they have known, racing through horror and outrage toward a shocking finale.

Best book of the series.

This book was done very well! Adding the Spackle's point of view really helped progress the story and and gave so much more emotional involvement to the books .

Best of the trilogy

Fantastic conclusion to this brilliant trilogy. This last book explores mankind's recurring themes through history...self destruction, war, power, vengeance and love performed so well by the narrators! Bravo

Great Read

Fitting end to a very unique and riveting series! Ness saved his very best for last which rarely happens in literature or movies. Well done!

good solid read

good solid read - less fake cussing than the first 2. great performance using male and female narrators.

Brilliant and Exhausting

I finally finished Monsters of Men. The voice of the writing is mighty and the the voice of the Land and the planet is fascinating. So then why did Ness and his editors have to torture us with such a ludicrous plot?!

That many forced plot twist in succession is criminal. I cry reader abuse! But I kept reading because the voice and Voice are so brilliant. What a beautiful idea.

The Mayor is the most deus-ex-machina character I've ever read. (Also, potentially the most killable.) 😂 Everything he does works out and he foresees it, not for any discernible logic or brilliance, but because the author makes it happen.

But then there are characters like The Sky and Ben and Wilf (sp? Ah audiobooks...) that are brilliant.

If you’ve come this far in the trilogy, read this one. It has some of the best and worst of the three books. But don’t expect another Knife of Never Letting Go.

fantastic series, epic final

narrator. story, and writing were simply amazing. if you havent read this series 10/10 reccomend it. it will keep you on the edge of your seat till the very end.

David Prentiss is one of the great characters

fantastic conclusion to the trilogy. Mayor Prentiss is one of the most layered and complex characters in fiction.

i would love a Prentiss town prequel

good books

I wish I had more faith in authors to write more when I read a really good trilogy that ends with a semi-cliffhanger.

Absolutely wonderful!

I enjoyed this from beginning to end. I’m going to start this again with my 12 year old grandson.

read it!

the trilogy was an adventure from beginning to end. id recommend it to anyone. love love loved it
