About this listen

Teens control the fate of America in the fourth and final book in the New York Times best-selling Unwind dystology by Neal Shusterman.

Proactive Citizenry, the company that created Cam from the parts of unwound teens, has a plan: to mass produce rewound teens like Cam for military purposes. And below the surface of that horror lies another shocking level of intrigue: Proactive Citizenry has been suppressing technology that could make unwinding completely unnecessary. As Conner, Risa, and Lev uncover these startling secrets, enraged teens begin to march on Washington to demand justice and a better future. But more trouble is brewing. Starkey's group of storked teens is growing more powerful and militant with each new recruit. And if they have their way, they'll burn the harvest camps to the ground and put every adult in them before a firing squad - which could destroy any chance America has for a peaceful future.

MUST MUST READ!

This series is as close to perfection as they come! I recommend this series to young as well as old! (not too young 13+) (I'm 32 lol) These books are in my top ten favorites of all time and I'm sure they'll stay there, and I read a lot! This last book in the series wrapped everything up perfectly! I can not say enough good about it! Excellent characters, truly awesome story and top, top notch narration! It will really make you think about the world and how things could look if they went that wrong. Perfectly fleshed out in every way, story and characters. The only thing that really sucks is that it's over!! =( You will not regret this series but you must read in order! This is the fourth and last book in this series. Truly loved The Unwind series! MUST READ!

Mixed Feelings about Undivided

After reading Unwind, the first of four entries in Neal Shusterman's YA dystopian series, I felt that my disbelief was sorely tested but that the strength of the story and the writing made it worthy of suspension. As the tale comes to a close, UnDivided leaves me unwhole.

On one hand, one of the main threads of the story takes a surprising path to its conclusion, (although once you understand what that path is, you also see immediately where it's going to lead). Meanwhile, every other storyline comes to exactly the conclusion you'd expect -- after the final reveal of the previous book, you already know how it's going to end. I expected Shusterman to pull rabbits out of his hat rather than take the easy way out.

A major problem is reliance on a discredited device -- the talking villain. Three of the four villains just talk and talk and talk, two of them bringing about their own demise by failing to just shut up and be evil, while a third just drones on endlessly. The latter is all the more tiresome because he (a new character) is a stock villain straight out of central casting -- Neal, nothing more interesting than a sadistic Chechen uber-criminal?

On the other hand, previous entries were a scattered, following too many characters who were too far afield from each other. Here, Shusterman does what he should have done all along -- stick with a particular character or storyline until it's (at least mostly) wrapped up.

But the big thing is the disbelief. In UnDivided, Shusterman takes us into graphic detail about unwinding, a disturbing picture. He adds extra layers beyond unwinding, showing the lengths disturbed minds can go. But it goes far beyond my ability to suspend my disbelief. The good news is, it emerges as a potent symbol. In the end, it's just impossible to imagine parents, scientists, even corporations and governments going so far as to literally murder an entire generation. But it becomes plausible as a overly literal symbol of how future generations can be sold out to the forces of corporate greed and political power.

That's what I ultimately take away from this series, from its powerful start to the mixed feelings I have at its end. Overall, very much worth reading/listening.

I'm sad there are no other books.

I've fallen in love with the characters in this story and their strength has inspired me. Each book gets better and better. I'll miss you Resa, Conner, and Lev!

Terrific ending

I was impressed by this book because the author ended with hope. Connor, Risa, Lev, Hayden, and Grace are memorable and funny at times. If you can stomach a darker dystopian series then read these books.

A good ending.

Starts a little slow but picks up wonderfully about two hours into the story. And what a thrill! This is one story that ties up everything, answers every question, and actually leaves the listener feeling full. I loved this series and will probably listen to all four books again.

an unheard generation

Why would abortion being made illegal make teen murder legal? An incredible journey into the imagined possibility of a human parts market. Going past organ donation and into human everything replacement. It's become a lucrative market making billionaires to everyone involved. The human tissue printer was the most intriguing in this book since that is now our present. These books were well researched and well written. A can of ethics worms concerning human tissue, stem cells, abortions and every nightmare involving the harvesting of humans for profit. By the end of the series you will question your own stance on organ donation, abortion and what science is really doing with human stem cells.

I loved it right up to where I didn't.

The ending was not what it needed to be. It would have been perfect if he would have stopped before wrapping everything up with a pretty bow.
