About this listen

Last summer, sixteen-year-old Will Burgess lost many of the people he loved most. Now he’s imprisoned in the Sunny Woods Rehabilitation Center, a facility for troubled youths. Separated from his surviving loved ones and terrified of a change inside him, Will is tormented by a new group of bullies and a sadistic government doctor. When his only ally, an orderly named Pierre, tells him there have been sightings of winged creatures with glowing red eyes, Will believes him.

Because Will has seen the Night Flyers too.

Even worse, he learns the monstrous Children are still lurking underground. They want revenge on Will and will stop at nothing to destroy everyone he cares about. Will and his friends, new and old, must band together to fight the forces of darkness—both human and supernatural. But as Will learned last summer, evil is relentless. And it won’t rest until its hunger is sated.

I’m loving this series! Great narration. I don’t have anything negative to say. I can’t wait until the next book comes out

Adding flight upped the ante to 11. This book starts directly after the first and keeps the high octane pace the whole time. The characters and the readers get a couple instances to catch their breath in some heartfelt scenes between characters on farms and military bases, but for the most parts it’s a continuous chase scene from location to location with blood spraying on the walls. Let’s just say, you’ll fly through it as you run for your life with our little band of misfits.

Back and better than ever

The intro was 🔥 But overall, this one was a bit of a let down. A good sequel, but something was missing. I can't quite put my finger on what it was, but the thing that made me listen to the first two books in the series twice each was missing from this one. It could be because Janz waited so long between titles and lost the mojo for this particular world? I don't know.

Either way, it was good to see the crew reunited. There were even some tear jerking moments. Matt Godfrey did a great job as usual. There was just nothing particular scary or creepy in this one as in the first two books. It was more like action/horror in a way. But for the newly initiated, Savage Species was from multiple perspectives, which always makes for a deeper story. Children of the dark is solely from Will's perspective. So there will almost always be something lost by default from a 1st person perspective. In my opinion at least.

I'll still recommend it for sure. Highly even. But compared to the first two, its a bit lacking.

Good. Not great
