About this listen
On the run....
Elena Gilbert's love, the vampire Stefan Salvatore, has been captured and imprisoned by demonic spirits who are wreaking havoc in Fell's Church. While her friends Bonnie and Meredith explore the evil that has taken over their town, Elena goes in search of Stefan.
In order to find him, she entrusts her life to Stefan's brother, Damon Salvatore, the handsome but deadly vampire who wants Elena, body and soul. Along with her childhood friend Matt, they set out for the slums of the Dark Dimension, where Stefan is being held captive. It is rumored to be a world where vampires and demons roam free, but humans must live enslaved to their supernatural masters.
Elena will stop at nothing to free Stefan. Yet with each passing day the tension between Elena and Damon grows, and she is faced with a terrible decision: Which brother does she really want?
Back in Fell's Church, Bonnie and Meredith have made some dire discoveries. They hastily try to follow Elena and warn her - only to be caught up in Elena's most dangerous adventure yet.

My whole world changed when I stepped inside the academy. Nothing is right about this place or the other students in it. Here I am, a mere mortal among gods...or monsters. I still can't decide which of these warring factions I belong to, if I belong at all. I only know the one thing that unites them is their hatred of me. Then there's Jaxon Vega. A vampire with deadly secrets who hasn't felt anything for a hundred years. But there's something about him that calls to me, something broken in him that somehow fits with what's broken in me. Which could spell death for us all.

Perfect escape book during COVID-19 pandemic
During these uncertain times, it's great to escape with a long book. This book is perfect for that. It's more out there than other titles thus far in the series but both the writing and the performance bring it to life.

This Trilogy is much better than original
I can't believe is it the same writer. Obviously, L.J. Smith has grown enormously as a writer. The characters are far more multi-dimensional and the plot is less predictable. World building is phenomenal. And I am officially kind of in love with Damon. Who would have thought!
When is Midnight coming out on audio book? I can't even imagine it without Rebecca Mozo's terrific narration.

Damon damon damon
I loved how much time was put into Damon in this book. I do not understand why she is with Stefan. This book was one of my favorites in the series. I would reccommend it if you enjoy the television series vs. the books. This one felt like it was definitely influenced by the TV series.

The dark demention is by far the coolest universe created by the Vampire Diaries. If you only listen/read one book of this highly entertaining series this is the one!

Good story
O meed tp admit this is the best book of the serie. The beginning is annoying, but the plot is good. Of course is necesary ignore Elena, and all her romatic problms. Dmon is a good-bad guy, but as Always he need to do something stupid and change the story. The narrative is excelent,

Real Good
I love this series! I'm a fan of the whole series & the show. The only thing that irritaed me in this series is some of the characters get on my nerves & make me mad :) The irritating characters in this series aren't as bad in the actual show. I recommend reading this series at least once. I've read it a couple of times.

great....but...
seriously I don't want to know this much about Damon and honestly why, why, why Elana why??? is what I kept saying repeatedly throughout first half. Just so you know, I warned you hehe. But I was glued to it to know what happened to Bonnie, Meredith, Stephan, Mrs. flowers, Matt, and Fell's church, on the edge of my seat.

Better
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
I'm vested. I have to finish the series, but I did it grudgingly. This book was better than the last several. I enjoyed the Dark Dimension and the focus on Damon.
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
I'm on Team Damon and Elena keeps refusing to make a decision. It's getting old.
Would you listen to another book narrated by Rebecca Mozo?
Yes, I thought she did an excellent job making the voices sound different.
Could you see The Return: Shadow Souls being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
God, no. We have The Vampire Diaries and Ian Somerhalder. All is right with the world.
Any additional comments?
Read Stephan's Diaries. They are actually terrific and they match up with the TV show.
