Publisher's summary

Luke Garner is a third-born in a restrictive society that allows only two children per family. Risking his life, he came out of hiding to fight against the Population Police laws. Now, in the final volume of Margaret Peterson Haddix's suspenseful Shadow Children series, Luke inadvertently sets off a rebellion that results in the overthrow of the government. The people are finally free. But who is in charge now? And will this new freedom be everything they had hoped?

Wish he had stepped up early in the book. It took so long to finalize.

Finished the whole series!

Yes, this is a dystopian series, but the focus is on the importance of freedom and keeping government honest and that even young people can do seemingly small acts that inspire others. The books are well written and I think listeners will enjoy the action and the narrator’s excellent performances. This helped take my mind off the current pandemic situation while I did a puzzle - a new way to relax for me and helpful. I think my middle school students would especially enjoy this.

Performance and Story

I really liked the book. I recommend it. There was only narrative mistake. It is too minor to take a star off though. Thank you audible.

Best book ever

I thought it was the best book I’ve ever listen to! I read the first book in sixth grade and now I made it my goal to listen to all of them and it was the best idea ever! I would listen to this again
