Rise

An Eve Novel, Book 3

De: Anna Carey

Narrado por: Tavia Gilbert

How far will you go when you have nothing left to lose?

When she lost her soul mate, Caleb, Eve felt like her world had ended. Trapped in the palace, forced to play the part of the happy, patriotic princess of The New America - and the blushing bride of her father's top adviser - Eve's whole life is a lie. The only thing that keeps her going is Caleb's memory, and the revolution he started.

Now, Eve is taking over where Caleb left off. With the help of Moss, an undercover subversive in the King's court, she plots to take down The New America, beginning with the capital, the City of Sand. Will Eve be able to bring about a new, free world when she's called upon to perform the ultimate act of rebellion - killing her father?

In Rise, Eve must choose who to leave behind, who to save, and who to fight as Anna Carey's epic tale of romance and sacrifice in the chilling dystopia of The New America comes to a stunning conclusion.

A Fast Good Read (Book 3)

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

Yes' because you can kick back and relax while you listen to someone tell you a story!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Rise?

I believe it was the end when Eve finds someone!

What about Tavia Gilbert’s performance did you like?

She was excellent and had an amazing voice.

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

Yes and I pretty much did, well maybe 3 sittings!

Any additional comments?

This was a great 3rd book to the series and I hope the author continues to write more! She left it at a cliff hanger and well its not a bad ending but it leaves the reader expecting more.

Sometimes it pays to try new things.

Any additional comments?

I was hesitant to purchase this audiobook series because, although there were rave reviews about the narrator, there seemed to be a lot of negative reviews about the story. I was hooked after the first book and really enjoyed both Eve and Once. Rise kept me entertained as well, but I grew concerned when I realized I only had one hour left and what seemed to me like a lot of story still to tell. I was right to be concerned. The last hour was a whirlwind that wrapped up a lot of loose pieces, but left me wanting more. I wish the author had taken her time with the final scenes. On the upside, however, she left me wishing for spinoff series focused on the lives of a few of the central characters. To me, that is the sign of a good series.

Super

I read this book in one day. It was that good! Best in the series!

Fun book for all ages

Any additional comments?

My kids and I both listened to this series and liked it a lot. If you like Divergent you will like this too.

Good read

Unlike many readers, I liked this last book in the series. I liked the role that Eve played in this book a little more than in Book 2. I thought that Eve did what needed to be done. In addition, it was nice to see that Charles was one of the good. The ending was a bit abrupt, but the best thing, the expected thing, did happen. Good series.

why!?

loved the series. but why oh why would you end it like that? cruel, just cruel.

Wow!

*Book 2 Spoilers*----Wow! Let's start off with, narration again was awesome. Good job Tavia Gilbert! Anna Carey has done an AWESOME job with this final installment of this trilogy! My heart was crushed at the end of the last book when Caleb dies. I got this book/audiobook hoping there was some kind of mistake. Eve must carry on without her love and continue the fight for freedom that Caleb was unable to finish. She must kill her father! Come on with an ending like that, how can you not have to read the third book! The pace in this book is sped up by the thrill and fear of getting caught. Through the excitement there is still time for your heartstrings to be tugged on. Charles' love grows for Eve but it is unreciprocated due to her unwavering love for the one she lost. Excellent final book!

Ending missing?

Listened to the first two books and they are pretty good. Good story line, even though I feel there could have been more “meat” to the the relationship with Eveand Caleb. This was also pretty good but then you get to the ending and there is no epilogue and it just stops all of a sudden.

Great book

Loved this trilogy. Wish there was Motrin the series. Couldn't stop listening to it. Anna Carey is a great author.

Must have had to meet a deadline....

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Another two drafts with the help of an excellent editor. One who's focus is on story development

Would you ever listen to anything by Anna Carey again?

probably not

What about Tavia Gilbert’s performance did you like?

She was an ok narrator. My problem was with the directing of the narration.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

no

Any additional comments?

If you like endings that are easy, unrealistic and everything comes up roses... this is for you.
