About this listen

Realm hopes that with each past he helps to recover, he'll be able to reclaim a small bit of his own in this spinoff story to Suzanne Young's best-selling duology, The Program and The Treatment.

Six months after the fall of The Program, ex-handler Michael Realm is struggling with his guilt. After all, he was instrumental in erasing the memories of several patients - including one he claimed to love. With a lifetime of regret stretched before him, Realm vows to set things right.

Along with his friend (yes, friend), James Murphy, Realm will track down those he's hurt in an attempt to give them back their lives - starting with Dallas Stone. He's not looking for forgiveness or redemption; he's not a hero. But helping others may be the only way to save himself.

Redemption

I believe this is an important part of the story. That redeeming quality that is possessed in nearly all human hearts.

This was a separate book???

Loved the series, but when I downloaded this third and final book I expected it to be more than 10 short chapters. I listened to the entire book within two visits to the gym. Wish I would've looked at the details before downloading - this could've just been a prologue at the end of the last book. :-(

Good short stop in the story line.

This was a good continuation of the story. Unfortunately I ended up reading it out of order so it gave away pieces I didn't know but that's my own fault.

I appreciate the friendship development between the two main characters. The interactions flowed well and were believable in my opinion. If you are a fan of the series I'd recommend the book. It's not a read alone book though. Without the context of the series, the book would be meaningless.

So short!

It was a great extension to the program and the treatment but it was way too short! I was so confused why it ended. There is a lot left unsaid and it ends at a strange spot. It almost feels like only half a thought.

it's a 5 STAR

but the reason I have it 4 was cause I felt it was rushed & I REALLY REALLY WISH THIS WOULD'VE BEEN a FULL SIZE NOVEL! It had SO MUCH she could've done with it!! I still loved it! I guess if the ONLY COMPLAINT is how much I DESPERATELY WANTED IT LONGER THEN YOU KNOW IT'S AMAZING!

You could skip this

I don’t think this short story was worth $15 unless you think Realm is the best character in the whole series. The person reading the book sounds like a robot or a computer through out a lot of the book. It was hard to concentrate on the story at all because I was so bothered by the narration. I tried to slow down or speed up but neither helped the narrator. I would have liked this for $5 or free because it is a good little short story.

Nice little edition

The story added to the main story which i appreciate HOWEVER
I do not think a book this short should have cost me a whole credit.

Revisiting Old Friends

As a huge fan of THE PROGRAM, I was so excited when this short book was announced. It is set after the 2nd book, THE TREATMENT and picks up right where that book left off.

One of my favorite things about this series is that the characters are well rounded. They are typical teens/young adults with flaws and missteps. The story was very satisfying and well worth the listen. It made me want to go back and revisit the series.

Kirby Heyborne does a good job with the narration after the first 10 minutes or so which is how long it takes for him to find his pacing. He also mispronounces the name Asa as Ah-za which bugged me, but for the most part he was good.

Sadly, the waiting begins again for the "prequel" of sorts THE REMEDY.

Great series for YA

Super short book - not sure why they couldn’t just put it at the end of another book.
