About this listen
X-Men meets Blake Crouch in the explosive conclusion to Daniel Price’s genre-bending Silvers trilogy about six extraordinary people whose fates become intertwined on an Earth far different from our own...one that is headed for utter destruction.
It's been two years since the world collapsed in a sheet of light, obliterating everything on Earth...but not quite everyone. Saved from the apocalypse by three mysterious beings, sisters Hannah and Amanda Given were marked with silver bracelets, along with four other survivors from their native world, and transported to an entirely different Earth, a place where the fabric of time is manipulated by common household appliances. Afflicted with time-bending powers they never wanted, and on the run from unexpected new enemies, “the Silvers” embarked on a dangerous journey for survival across an alien America—a hunt for answers that bound the group like family while revealing the gravely sinister intentions of their so-called saviors.
But their new Earth is about to suffer the same fate as the old one and the Silvers have only ten weeks to prevent it. Their one hope is to find the remaining survivors of their home world—a quest that will take them from Mexico to England to a radically changed Japan—to gain more allies for the final confrontation with the godlike beings who first brought them to this Earth. Failure will mean death for billions of people. But victory may come at a cost the Silvers can’t afford.

Without warning, the world comes to an end for Hannah and Amanda Given. The sky looms frigid white. The electricity falters. Airplanes everywhere crash to the ground. But the Givens are saved by mysterious strangers, three fearsome and beautiful beings who force a plain silver bracelet onto each sister' s wrist. Within moments, the sky comes down in a crushing sheet of light and everything around them is gone.

Story
A gunslinger with four affinities is a myth. It's the kind of story whispered in frontier saloons one drink before closing and around campfires in the dead of night. For the heroes and villains in those tales, that impossible power is a boon, a gift. For Mr. Jones, it's a curse. Of course, that's not his real name. He's had many. Changing names is necessary when you possess a power that every lawman and outlaw would kill to obtain. To survive, you keep your head down, kill when you must, and never stay in one place too long.

Shesheshen is a shapeshifter, who happily resides as an amorphous lump at the bottom of a ruined manor. When her rest is interrupted by hunters intent on murdering her, she constructs a body using a metal chain for a backbone, borrowed bones for limbs, and a bear trap as an extra mouth. However, the hunters chase Shesheshen out of her home and off a cliff. Badly hurt, she's found and nursed back to health by Homily, a warmhearted human, who has mistaken Shesheshen as a fellow human

It has been 20 years since the end of the war. The dictatorial Augurs, once thought of almost as gods, were overthrown and wiped out during the conflict, their much-feared powers mysteriously failing them. Those who had ruled under them, men and women with a lesser ability known as the Gift, avoided the Augurs' fate only by submitting themselves to the rebellion's Four Tenets.

Critic reviews
"The story has plenty to offer in its exciting, exceptionally complicated plot and well-crafted characters." —Kirkus
"Daniel Price has done it again in this third installment of the Silvers series. Filled with his trademark action-filled plots, whip-smart dialogue, and an unforgettable cast of characters, The War of the Givens especially stands out with its clever mix of plot twists and emotional gut punches, where relationships between characters matter just as much as saving the alternate world in which they all find themselves. I loved everything about this pitch-perfect conclusion to Price’s groundbreaking sci-fi trilogy."—A. J. Sass, award winning author of Ellen Outside the Lines and Ana on the Edge
“Daniel Price draws his Silvers trilogy to a close with this big, bold, beautiful comic book sci-fi extravaganza that somehow manages to out-Avengers The Avengers. The War of the Givens is a heartfelt epic, mashing together the best elements of genre staples like the X-Men by way of Fringe, with plenty of big-screen action and extraordinarily consequential heroics. I loved it!”—Michael Patrick Hicks, author of the Salem Hawley series and Friday Night Massacre

But instead, she is thrown into danger unlike any other she has faced and finds herself isolated, unable to communicate with the outside world, commanding a motley group of unfamiliar troops, and struggling day by day to survive in a deadly environment with sabotaged gear. Only her undeniable talent for command can give her ragtag band a fighting chance.

On Tommy Llewellyn’s first birthday, his doting parents awoke in a home without baby blankets and bottles in the fridge, without the photos of their newborn once scattered about, and without any idea that the one-year-old sleeping in their home was their child. That’s because Tommy Llewellyn is a boy who, in the very cosmic sense of things, will never be remembered—stuck in a universal Reset that causes everyone to forget he exists when the clock strikes midnight on his birthday each year.

Terraform hones the predictive capacity of science fiction and seeks new, vivid, and visceral ways to depict the future we’re hurtling toward, translating the decay and anxiety that surround us into something else, something unexpected, something that burns like a beacon and upends the conventional ideas of where we’ll end up next. Section by section—Watch/Worlds/Burn—the book takes on surveillance, artificial intelligence, and climate collapse. With a potent roster of established names and rising talents, it confronts the issues that orbit our everyday existence.

An Excellent Conclusion to a Fantastic Trilogy
I absolutely loved this series. It is full of science fiction and speculative history, with characters who possess supernatural powers working together against really wretched villains.. At its core though, it is a story of the bonds forged in shared adversity and purpose, and the lengths we will go to for those we love. I re-listened to books one and two before starting book three. ’m so glad Rich Orlow was brought back to narrate this final installment. He did an excellent job bringing the large cast of characters to life. This conclusion was satisfying, hit all the right notes, and was well worth the wait. I know these are a listen I re-visit again. I would heartily recommend the entire series.

Great ending
Most books that I have read end terribly. Enough so that sometimes I loth the thought of reading the last book of a series. This is probably the best wrap up I’ve read in quite awhile.

This is one of my favorite series. From the beginning when I got to read the first chapter of The Flight of the Silvers I was enthralled with the story. This book was a sad but amazing conclusion to an amazing series. I'm sad the journey is over but glad I took the trip.

Impressed by the World and Character Building
The story was fantastic. After waiting years for the final book in the trilogy, I was still able to follow the story fine without going back to the previous book. It kept me interested throughout and I was very impressed with the narrator’s ability to create voices and sometimes accents for so many different people. This was high quality sci-fi with memorable characters that you feel for. Well done!
