About this listen
Sequel to The Art of Breathing.
Family is not always defined by blood. It's defined by those who make us whole - those who make us who we are.
And here, at the end, Bear and Otter will be tested like they've never been before.
There's a knock at the door from a little girl who has nowhere else to go.
There's a phone ringing, bringing news they do not expect.
There's a brother returning home after learning how to stand on his own.
As these moments converge, all of their lives will change forever.
Beginning in Bear, Otter, and the Kid and continuing in Who We Are and The Art of Breathing, TJ Klune has told a saga of family and brotherhood, of love and sacrifice. In this final chapter, the events of the past pave the long and winding road toward a future no one could have imagined.

Story
Do you believe in love at first sight? Paul Auster doesn't. Paul doesn't believe in much at all. He's thirty, slightly overweight, and his best features are his acerbic wit and the color commentary he provides as life passes him by. His closest friends are a two-legged dog named Wheels and a quasibipolar drag queen named Helena Handbasket. He works a dead-end job in a soul-sucking cubicle, and if his grandmother's homophobic parrot insults him one more time, Paul is going to wring its stupid neck.

Five years ago, Benji Green lost his beloved father Big Eddie when his truck crashed into a river. Everyone called it an accident, but Benji knows it was more. Even years later, he's buried in his grief, throwing himself into managing Big Eddie's convenience store in the small-town of Roseland, Oregon. Surrounded by his mother and three aunts, he lives day to day, struggling to keep his head above water. But Roseland is no ordinary place.

And he’ll do it with or without the reluctant help of Seth Gray, Nick's best friend (and maybe the love of his life).

Victor Lawson, a human, lives there too. They’re a family, hidden and safe. The day Vic salvages and repairs an unfamiliar android labelled “HAP,” he learns of a shared dark past between Hap and Gio–a past spent hunting humans. When Hap unwittingly alerts robots from Gio’s former life to their whereabouts, the family is no longer hidden and safe.

It’s really hard to pretend like life is normal when you’re staring a monster in the eyes, though he’s both tempting and irritating in his human form. I put my days as a hunter behind me, unable to cope with the death and pain anymore, to become an upstanding citizen and for what? To assist Lake, a man who claims he’s not a monster but keeps talking about me like I’m edible and–even worse–wants to woo me?

He’s rude, only cares about himself and his casino, and did I mention he doesn’t know a single thing about video games? Okay, okay. Maybe that’s not enough of a reason to watch him dash headlong into danger while I kick back and enjoy the show.

A letter from my first kiss and my childhood everything...from prison. He may be nicknamed Saint, but this sweet, sexy biker most definitely has a wild streak. Hearing from him draws me right back into the Knights of Fury motorcycle club - the people I’ll always think of as family. He’s still the only man I’ve ever wanted. Each good, old-fashioned letter from my “prison pen pal” has my heart racing. Which is nothing compared to how I feel when Saint surprises me in person, as a free man.

Harrison Phillip Fletcher III isn't supposed to be here. Not in Burlington, Vermont, not running Vino & Veritas, a quaint inclusive bookstore and wine bar, and definitely not still alive, at 42. Also not supposed to be here? An unexpected delivery of chickens. Finn Barnes knows chickens. The burly organic farmer knows all about rare breed poultry, but dealing with a hot older bookseller is an entirely different matter. City-slicker types like Harrison never end up staying in Vermont for the long-term. They should steer clear of each other. But the flare of attraction is mutual.

Story
I had it all planned out. I'd find a girl, marry her, get the white picket fence and make a family. But then a baby is dropped off at my doorstep. My baby. Turns out I'm more than an NFL quarterback - I'm a father. And my daughter's mother is missing. Or she ran away. No one knows, not even her sister Aria Ryan. Aria carries a gentle grace that doesn't match her story. She has every reason to run - her sister has made her life a living hell. But Aria is different. And I want her to stay.

Followed the whole epic
This series is not over the top. It’s not fancy or overly dramatic. It’s not crazy. It is a beautiful illustration of what chosen family can be and also how it is. Loved every second, even the scenes that hurt and burned.

Awesome Series and Conclusion
TJ Klune has spent 10 years crafting these wonderful group of flawed characters that find a way to make life work for them and achieve happiness. They make their own family. What a great ride. Beautifully written. So loved all of the books in the series. You laugh and you cry and throughout you are pulling for these characters. THANKS!!!

I love this series so much
I am in tears, for Pete’s sake, over the end of this series. I love these people, every single one of them. What a journey. I read BAOTK first about a year ago and it was perfect. I was so happy with it, and laughed so hard over many parts, that when I read the blurbs on the following books, I didn’t read them. They sounded intense and unhappy. But in the last week I decided to try the second book. The hardest thing about that book was the lack of Sean Crisden. That one had another narrator, and he just didn’t seem right. Thankfully, Sean came back for the rest of the books. He WAS that huge family, and made them real. I finished the rest of this series one right after another. I have bought them all for my permanent library. Like Otter said of Bear, and Bear of Ty, I will never let them go.

Still Standing
This book. This series. These characters. This author. TJ Klune is an author that can evoke so much emotion with even the most banal of statements. He has created an entire family of characters that one can't help but wish to be real. I want these people to be real people, so much. I want this series to never end. Since it has to end, as all things do, I think this book was perfect.

Beautiful conclusion
🎧 Do you remember how it all began?
I do.
It was a heart-breaking and devastating first meet all those years ago. We've followed these guys for a long time now. When we got to know them they were really only two. A solid team, alone among people who tried their best to love them. Yet they were so very afraid to let them in
🎧 I'm his big brother. For the longest time, I was all he had. It's not like that anymore
We were there through the ups and the downs. We've cried with them, laughed with them. We've done so much with these people. They've become part of our family. And it's always hard to say goodbye to family. But sometimes you have to let go. And that doesn't mean there won't be visits in the future, but for now, it's time to move on.
The Long and Winding Road is written in three parts, the past, present and the future. And while the past doesn't bring any surprises it does bring clarity. We get to experience the missing years when the Kid was at college, breaking our hearts all over again - but then, what else is new with this series? We experience the happy moments and the scary moments when Bear and Otter finally are ready for more children. We meet Corey and Kori for the first time (kind of). Then we go back to where it all began, back to Seafare.
Then there is the now. When everything changes in the span of an afternoon. With the ring of a doorbell and the ring of a phone. Life changes in an instant - just as life in Seafare has a tendency to. We know this, that's nothing new. It's life. So we follow them when they are trying to figure everything out. We watch them live. Because when we first met them, they weren't living, they were only existing. They have come so fare since then. They are not alone anymore - it was inevitable.
🎧 family is not defined by blood. It's not always who you're born to that you're stuck with. It's what you want it to be, what you make of it. It's the people around you who see you at your worst and are not afraid to pick up the pieces when you fall apart. It's the people who can call you on your bullshit. It's the people who look at you each time they see you like they haven't seen you in years. It's the people who you fight for. It's the people you'd lay down your life for. It's the scariest thing in the world, but, if you let it, it's also the greatest.
There are a lot of times while listening (or reading) this book you think: so that happened.... or more likely just what did Bear just say??? I know I really should be used to it by now, but still.... It's nice to know that some things stay just the same.
Lastly, we see snippets from the future. We realise that life have moved on in Seafare. There have been ups and downs while we've been gone. But it's a life well lived. It's a bit bittersweet to say goodbye. But it is time. It won't be forever, and we know that life will go on, with all that it entails.
Sean Crisden was great. There were so many moments during this book that I wondered at Crisden's ability to keep from laughing like a maniac. Especially when Bear is... being Bear. Asking, ahem interrogating Anna about pregnancy and what to expect. Every tangent he goes on.... I don't know how he did it, because I sure burst out laughing more than once. He captured the characters and situations just right and every second I spent listening I was there, in Seafare experiencing it all alongside these wonderful people.
🎧 Roads can diverge.
It’s tough but true.
It’ll be okay. In the end.
So you’ll go one way.
And we’ll go another.
Maybe one day we’ll meet again.
But even if we don’t, remember this:
We have lived.
We have loved.
We have lost.
But we’re standing. For all that we are, we’re still standing.

Funny, emotional...wonderful.
The Long and Winding Road is broken up into three parts: Past, Present, and Future. The Past is a lovingly done recap of the series, including explaining the events that lead up to The Art of Breathing.
I LOVED THIS. I cried, I laughed, and my heart was so full of love for these characters and these stories. TJ does not let fans of this series down: he doesn't rip your heart out (too) much, and what he does bruise he absolutely makes all better by the end. Make no mistake, this is a love letter to the characters and to those of us who love them so much.
Honestly, I was just a teeny bit disappointed in the narration. One of the reasons to have the same narrator perform all the books in a series is for continuity, and I felt like Sean Crisden was off in the character voices. Maybe it's because I recently re-listened to the other audios in the series, but the voices seemed different upon this listen; some subtly and some drastically, but it was noticeable to me.
That being said, the narration is still really good. The character voices that are used are distinguishable and consistent throughout, and Sean brings out the humor and emotion of the story beautifully, and his pacing and timing are wonderful, as always.
I 100% recommend this, but I strongly encourage you to read the other books in the series first. In my opinion, this should not be read as a standalone.
