Publisher's summary

The course of dream travel never did run smooth - at least not in Liv Silver's experience. Able to visit other people's dreams (whether they want her to or not), Liv has solved mysteries, unearthed difficult truths, fought madmen, and escaped life-threatening peril, all from the comfort of her own bed. But Liv's troubles are just beginning.... A rocky romance, a malicious blogger with a hidden identity, a wedding, and a classmate (or two) dead set on revenge all await Liv in this action-packed conclusion to the Silver trilogy.

I enjoyed it, but...

I read some reviews of the printed book, and I must admit that I understand why some people were underwhelmed. There seemed to be a lot of filler in it (Matthew, I'm talking to you). And I wish there'd been a bit more excitement instead of the verbal "I'm gonna get you" taunts. However, it came together in the end and was better than I thought it would be (I was expecting worse based on the reviews).

Bottom line: It's not as good as the first two books. A significant question is left unanswered but I can live with that. There's some choppiness owing, primarily, to the fact that things that were a big deal in the previous book suddenly don't matter and we don't get a real explanation for the change of heart. In spite of all that, I enjoyed it and will listen to the series again.

Not as good as Ruby series, but light and enjoyable listen

I bought the three books in the silver series because I really enjoyed the Ruby trilogy by Kerstin Gier, also read by Marisa Carlin.

I’ve just finished the series, and here are my thoughts on it.

WARNING: SPOILERS BELOW









Interesting premise: Liv and her friends are able to interact in a dream world while sleeping, where their actions have real world consequences. Things got a bit convoluted at times, though.

Not a biggie, but I enjoy Marisa Carlin’s narration, and thought she did a good American accent, but I prefer listening to her UK accent as in the Ruby series.

This series had its own version of Gossip Girl: the Secrecy Blog, which provided an amusing commentary for the school age characters’ lives. The school friend characters like Persephone and Emily were entertaining.

The supernatural/demonic aspect to the story was basically just a red herring. I kept wondering to the end of the third book of the demon would turn out to be real, but it wasn’t. I was relieved, as that aspect of the story was a bit too creepy for me.

The main nemesis of the story, Arthur’s rage and viciousness seemed inexplicable to me. I get that there had to be an bad guy for conflict in the story, but he didn’t seem to have sufficient motivations for being as horrid as he was.

As for Liv, the protagonist’s, love interest: I found Henry not super interesting. I liked Grayson more, and kept hoping he and Liv would get together!

I was sort of expecting a twist of some kind towards the end of the book series, but there wasn’t one. The bad guy was who we thought it was, and so were the good guys. I did wonder if Henry would suddenly turn out to be the baddie, because he seemed too perfect that it was suspicious.

Overall, not as good as the Ruby trilogy (which I really loved), but a light and wholesome read!
