About this listen
Purple's War
Being a dragon half breed Avoidable is difficult. One best friend has been kidnapped and the other is in the Perfect prison for bombing the compound. How can I rescue them both?
All my life I've believed that love was useless. I believed that I was useless. Until I became a warrior. The rebels are not what I thought they were. They're trying to unite with the Perfects as much as we are. They're just a bit better at making things happen. Going to their camp was a risk, but I had to find Hope. Not only did I find my best friend, I found a lot more. Friends, family, and could I finally believe in it...love?

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story4 out of 5 stars 178
Compiled by intrepid journalist Neve Pride, this archive of recordings spans the months after dragons emerged on earth, chronicling the communities that sprang up amid the destruction, the scientists, military leaders, and experts searching for a defense, and those steadfastly seeking the missing. Neve and her young daughter Bex travel among the wreckage speaking to those left behind and surviving, against all odds. Neve records everything for history, and in the hopes of locating a clue as to where the dragons came from and how one might stop them.

Annie has always had high hopes for her future. But the reality of her life just isn’t measuring up. She loves her fiancé, Greg–doesn’t she? She’s going to get her degree and open her own business–won’t she? Then, a strange old woman shows up outside her house, and she seems to know a lot about Annie. An awful lot. Annie could tell the old woman to get lost. Yet there’s something about her Annie just can’t shake. And what she learns could change her life forever–but is it the life she envisioned?

For some it’s an opportunity. For others it’s a moment to question their faith: In God, in science, in everything. Still others try to keep the world running in the face of absurdity and uncertainty. And then there are the billions looking to the sky and wondering how a thing that was always just there is now... something absolutely impossible.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive.

Purple's Story!
I really enjoyed the first story so much that I couldn't wait to get my hands on the second but unfortunately for me I wasn't able to get to it as quick as I planned but that's life. I love this world author Rachel Medhurst created. I think it's as good as the Hunger Games, Divergent, yes, in my opinion it's right there with them, the only downfall is I wish the author has made this story much, much longer. We get to meet the characters from the first story but there's a few new ones in this one. This story is Purple's Story and it's perfect. The author weaves both stories to make them feel believable. Her imagination shows and this author is very talented and it shows throughout her stories. I look forward to hearing this 5 part story and see if the Avoidables and Perfects will ever live a life in peace.
Ian Barker has done an exceptional job with his telling of both stories. He really does bring the stories to life. Each characters voice and accent are done extremely well that I don't have any trouble identifying which character is speaking throughout the story. He keeps me pulled into the story and leaves me begging for more. This is a story you don't want to pass up, I can promise you that. I received this audio from the author in exchange for an unbiased review.

Deep and Purple...lol
Would you consider the audio edition of Avoidables 2 to be better than the print version?
it always is! but I only listened!!
What other book might you compare Avoidables 2 to and why?
This is a unique story...I cant compare it!
Which character – as performed by Ian Barker – was your favorite?
Purple!!! he is hilarious!!!!
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I could have...it was quite entertaining!!!
Any additional comments?
** I was given a free copy of this book in exchange or an honest review **
I quite enjoyed this 2nd installment in this little series and cant wait for part 3! This is from Purple the handsome Dragon's point of view...he is Hope's best friend...Purple comes to rescue Hope from the rebels, but finds out she is ok, and runs into his brother Deep....now Deep and Purple are together...get it? lol I think its kinda funny! Anyways...Purple who has always had casual relationships with the ladies finds himself wanting more...and he finds it! Great story!!!

Difficult to Understand
I was gifted this book for an honest review. I have to say that I just could not finish it.
If you have not read the first book in the series (as I have not) you will be totally lost. Usually in a series the author reviews enough so that you can pick up on the story. Not so here. The narrator does a fine job enabling the listener to differentiate the different characters, but it makes no difference. I never could figure out what was going on.
Do yourself a favor, if you choose to listen to this second book in the series read the first one before you jump in. I'm sure it will make it a much more enjoyable experience.
