About this listen

Roya desperately wishes she was above ground on a sunny patio watching the lake lap up on the shore. Instead, she finds herself trapped with the Lucidites. Her brother is mysteriously wasting away, and, at every turn, she finds a new betrayal. Just when she thinks she's finally escaping the Institute, a new danger unveils itself. A secret society of Dream Travelers has declared war on the Lucidites by abducting a head official. It's up to Roya to figure out who's behind it and how to save everyone she cares about most.

More action packed than its predecessor, Stunned is captivating and will leave listeners squirming from the tension but also begging for more.

Emotional roller coaster.

Intense emotional drama. Life is complicated by our relationships but what happens when your emotions can be manipulated? This audiobook was provided by the author/narrator/publisher free of charge in exchange for an unbiased review via AudiobookBlast dot com

decent

not as good as the first book in the series, the love triangle was a bit much for me, the rest of the book was really good though.

Filled with Suspense and Intrigue

What does Elizabeth Klett bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The narration by Elizabeth Klett continues to be excellent. She is consistent with how she portrays each character, which allows for a seamless transition from book to book. Also, Roya’s passionate and fiery personality comes through clearly with Elizabeth's narration.

Any additional comments?

This is a great continuation to book one. All the characters are further developed and become more interesting as does the institute and therefore the story. The suspense is non-stop with Joseph up to something that you’ll never guess as well as with the team getting into a situation that seems impossible to get out of. The romance triangle between Roya, George and Aiden continues to become more complicated. I feel for Roya in the romance department since both Aiden and George seem very worthy of her affection – but no resolution to that in this book. I recommend continuing on with this trilogy.

An awesome continuation!

The Lucidites, along with Roya's help, have defeated the big bad Zhuang, now what...Roya desperately wants to return home with Bob and Steve, back to a normal life, but her twin brother Joseph pleaded with her to stay. Joseph is working on a secret project that concerns Roya, and he needs to draw from her energy to complete it, but he doesn't tell her that! Roya is still stuck in a love triangle with George and Aiden, and everyone is working on a project but her! What in Pete's name can happen with all this!
Although the team just came from a huge, yet successful, could-have-been-world-ending mission, everyone is back to business as usual. I mean, they lost their healer, and Joseph almost died! Roya is moping around because she's not getting her way, and avoiding both Aiden and George instead of dealing with things head on. I can appreciate the complicated situation between the two boys because she feels for both of them, but come on! Rip the damn Band-Aid off! I reflect...they are young and naive. While Roya deals with not dealing with the boys, she pushes Joseph to tell her what the project he is working on is, because it seems to be affecting him physically. Once Roya finally gives in to peer-pressure, she accepts a project from Shuman. The project is more of a job, and the job is news reporter. Roya must use her psychic ability to see potential threats, and then report them. Now that Roya is busy, and attention diverted, Aiden goes missing!

You will have plenty to keep you busy trying to figure out what is going on in this book! The rescue mission is not the focal point of the story, nor does it monopolize the book. This incident is created to add another layer onto the story as a whole. I learned more about the Lucidites’ history and key players. Although they do have a new threat, the play also opened doors for Roya that will allow her to not only know how to deal with what is happening, but understand why as well. The struggle Roya is having with George and Aiden is real, and will threaten to tear her apart. And then the ending! She pulled a Star Wars move on me at the very end of the book! All I'm saying is “Luke, I am your father”, OMG! That's it. I didn't spoil anything, right? So yeah, the ending isn't a cliffhanger, but is a huge white elephant in the room moment.

So let’s recap!
Roya may or may not have killed Zhuang in the previous book (verdict is still out).
New bad guy “Chase” in play now.
Whitney is still dead.
Trey is still a lying, manipulative prick!

Book three should be a bang! Totally looking forward to it!!

Narrator Review

Elizabeth Klett continues as the narrator for this epic series The Lucidites. Elizabeth has been a great story teller for Roya Stark. I fell into an easy comfort with her voice, and really felt like she was portraying the characters as real, as if it were her own life being played out. I enjoy her subtle change in tone for the men, and really well interpreted voices for all the females. 5 stars for a job well done Elizabeth!

Couldn't believe this one was even better

This is book two of the Lucidites series and Roya is ready to go. Ready to go anywhere, but she is hoping to go to Bob and Steve's, she needs a break from the institute and the boys. But things go wonky and she is stuck, and a stuck Roya is never a good thing, except for us the readers/listeners.
This was another great book by Sarah Noffke, I wasn't sure how she would top the first book Awoken, but wow! This book has a lot more plot twists, and is just as action packed and exciting as the first book if not more, it is just a book you will not want to put down, or in my case stop listening to. Narrator Elizabeth Klett is back to narrate this book and did another awesome job. She has separate voices for each characters (my favorites have to be Joseph and Ren, polar opposites), and she just puts her whole self into the book, she makes it so good I don't want to get out of my car some days. Which ever format you choose you wont go wrong with Stunned.

Great second book in a fantastic series

Wow this is a great second book in the series. I was stunned by the end of the book. There is so many twists and secrets revealed in this second book, it really does leave you stunned. Roya is once again front and center in the mission to retrieve a captured member of the team. The fantastic character development continues as more secrets are revealed about all the characters. It is a well paced book that makes you want to dive into the next book. I listened to this book. The narrator was great.

Stunned is the perfect Title!!

This book had a lot more teenage drama than the first one which I felt took away from the overall story. I enjoyed the twists and turns that happened through out though. Sarah Noffke threw a huge curve ball right at the end of the book though that more than makes up for it.
Roya is thrown into the deep end once again against her wishes.

THIS IS A GREAT STORY!!

Would you listen to Stunned again? Why?

I just might..starting with book 1...

Who was your favorite character and why?

Roya of course!

Which character – as performed by Elizabeth Klett – was your favorite?

Roya again!

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There were several...but the end with Joseph really truly thinking he had found their father...my heart hurt for him!

Any additional comments?

** I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review **

I think this one was better than book 2...yes we still have Roya and her teenage angstyness...(yes it is a word...lol) But she is strong...and she really cares about the ones around her..again we have her facing down a big bad to save her fellow lucidites and almost dying...and she came through with shining colors...but her suspicions are valid about Zhuang...and could it be true..is he the parent her brother has been killing himself looking for? Glad I have #3 in my library...because I am on it!!!

Good story and narration...cant wait to see where it ends!!!
