Through the Ever Night

Under the Never Sky, Book 2

By: Veronica Rossi

Narrated by: Michael Goldstrom

It's been months since Aria learned of her mother's death.

Months since Perry became Blood Lord of the Tides, and months since Aria last saw him.

Now Aria and Perry are about to be reunited. It's a moment they've been longing for with countless expectations. And it's a moment that lives up to all of them. At least at first. Then it slips away. The Tides don't take kindly to former Dwellers like Aria. And the tribe is swirling out of Perry's control. With the Aether storms worsening every day, the only remaining hope for peace and safety is the Still Blue. But does this haven truly exist?

Threatened by false friends and powerful temptations, Aria and Perry wonder: Can their love survive through the ever night? In this second book in her spellbinding Under the Never Sky trilogy, Veronica Rossi combines fantasy and sci-fi elements to create a captivating adventure - and a love story as perilous as it is unforgettable.

good enough that I'll try the next book

I prefer the narrator from book 1, but the story kept me interested and I guess I'll try book 3.

Middle Book Syndrome

I will admit I am a bit undecided on this one. It has been a couple days since I finished this book and honestly I am having a hard time vividly remembering it. I think that in itself says it all...

Middle book syndrome is a lot like middle child syndrome. It’s not the exciting beginning where everything is new and full of wonder. It's not the finale where all is uncovered and the pieces fall into place to reveal a beautiful picture you couldn’t even imagine, no the middle book is just that, the middle. Full of whatevers and what if's.

I still found myself enjoying this book and if you loved Through the Ever Sky then don't miss this one, for I have a feeling book three will be getting 5 stars all around!

Great story and narration!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I really liked the first book in the series, even though it felt like it was too short. This book had plenty of movement within the story, and was even better than the first!

What did you like best about this story?

The author does a good job at making everything seem real in a world that is completely unlike our own. Super human senses and a world where the climate has gone wacko seems entirely believable when phrased and described like she does. I also enjoyed the further development of the two main characters Aria and Perry and their relationship. The author doesn't do the typical "split up/now they hate it each other for some reason that isn't even true" that many authors do in the second book in the series. She doesn't keep it all hunky dory either but it's enough to make me happy. Kudos to one of my favorite books this year!

What about Michael Goldstrom’s performance did you like?

Michael Goldstrom has a smooth manly voice. At times he has to narrate as Aria, the main female character and does more than a believable job! (A hard thing for a man to do I must say.)

The second book was as good as the first

I really like this series of books. I also liked the reader of the second book better than book 1. It kept me interested and now looking forward to book 3

A good listen

Any additional comments?

Not one of my favorites. Listened to this because I had listened to the first book. Entertaining enough. Having said that, I am sure I will preorder the next book when the time comes.

Love the trio

I find the series to be Excitin and original. Rossi captures the current trend of old world meets post apocalyptic conditions--- in an inviting manner.

Awesome!

This story so far is one of my faves. The characters are amazing, the story is intricate and well thought out, and the setting is wild and exciting. Definitely recommend :)

awesome trilogy.

loved it. I have read all three books four times. can't get enough. please make a movie.

good read

Ive read them all a couple of times, now im listening to them. Which means I paid for them twice - that's how much I love them.

Great book!

I really love this series. it is passionate and so well written.
Start with Under the Nerer Sky (book 1) which is also brilliant! If you can read the novella 'Liv and Roar Under the Never Sky' I would read it first, but you don't have to read the novella to understand book 2 if you have read book 1. It is not on audible.com, but it is pretty short and it really gives you a nice background.
I didn't love the narrator, but he wasn't distracting bad or anything.
