About this listen

When Calla Tor wakes up in the lair of the Searchers, her sworn enemies, she’s certain her days are numbered. But then the Searchers make her an offer - one that gives her the chance to destroy her former masters and save the pack - and the man - she left behind. Is Ren worth the price of her freedom? And will Shay stand by her side no matter what? Now in control of her own destiny, Calla must decide which battles are worth fighting and how many trials true love can endure and still survive.

Perfect book to bond with my daughter!

Would you consider the audio edition of Wolfsbane: A Nightshade Novel to be better than the print version?

I enjoy hearing how to pronounce the names and the fact that I can do two things at once- drive and listen to a book and we also painted a house while listening to the book

What was one of the most memorable moments of Wolfsbane: A Nightshade Novel?

The plot was somewhat predictable but there was a time where I can say I didn't see it coming. I was surprised in a good way

Which character – as performed by Rebecca Lowman – was your favorite?

I liked Rebecca's performance of Calla.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I found myself rooting for the dumped boyfriend and just feeling his pain.

Any additional comments?

I thought it was a great book where I was interested and so was my 16 year old daughter. That is hard to find and this series and this book filled the ticket.

I really loved it

If you could sum up Wolfsbane: A Nightshade Novel in three words, what would they be?

Review:

I love this series. I loved the first book and I loved the second book. The story definitely intensifies in this book. We lost some characters from the first book (no they didn’t die just not in this book as much) but we gained a slew of new characters. Quite a bit that I just fell in love with . This installment is full of twists, turns, heartache, action, and lots of history. I loved every moment of it.


Long Story Short:


The story picks up right where we left off in Nightshade. Calla and Shay have been taken by the Searchers. Calla wakes to find herself in what she would think is a dangerous situation, but what she finds is that the Searchers are far different than she ever imagined. They don’t like her much for sure but they need her and she needs them. As her stay continues she learns there is more history that belongs to her people, the searchers, and the keepers, and what she learns changes her world. In the middle of all her history lessons, she starts to miss her pack and even Ren, she is confused and doesn’t know which path to take… freedom and the chance to be with Shay or to return to her pack and help those she loves.

My Thoughts:

This book was so intense. First off, I loved hearing all the history, the beginnings, and the secrets the past holds. I find that if an author does it right, storytelling within a story can be just super fascinating, Andrea Cremer did it more than right! It was pure enjoyment, interesting, and enlightening.

Second, I loved that this book took place in a new setting with some new and very lovable characters. An entire new world but still held onto the important elements of the old world. It was crazy awesome to see how the searchers live, what they can do, and where they fit in to the story exactly. If I had to choose a side, it would be with the searchers for sure… unless I could be a wolf with no keeper. The new characters were so different and captivating, they really brought the story up to a new level for me.
Last but not least.. I am glad to have back the beautiful writing and superb storytelling from the first book. Everything that made me fall in love with the first book was included in this book. I really missed my time with the wolves while they were away…. I was glad to have them back. The story just keeps getting better, this is for sure not one of those empty filler, middle book, it’s another stepping stone in Calla and Shay’s story. The twists are there, the love, joy, devastation were there (Andrea Cremer is not afraid to make me cry) and the action packed scenes were there all wrapped up in beautiful words.

In The End:


I laughed, I loved, I cried, I hyperventilated, I made it to the end… of this book … time for more!

Like Hunger Games with Wolves

I Loved this sequel because unlike some it started right where it left off. It reminds me a lot of the Hunger Games with wolves of course. Just like the Children in Hunger Games they are forced to fight and have been lied to about everything they knew. The characters are great and it was hard for me to stop listening. It explains a lot more of the things we didn't get answered in the first book, and it gets a whole lot more interesting with the new characters in the story. Loved It and can't wait for the next book cause like the first one it leaves you hanging at the end.

Original take on werewolves

This book is redeeming to the first. Jumping into this book is a refreshing change from the tedious teenage angst of the first book. A different set of characters in this book in the form of Searchers, those the Guardian werewolves believed were the enemy, are more lively and less conflicted about everything. They are preparing to fight the Keepers, those that made the Guardians, to drown out black magic and give the Guardians their freedom. The characters are lively. The plot is a bit predictable at times, but enjoyable all the same.

Paved way for the third book.

Wolfsbane isn't as exciting and thrilling as Nightshade. In the first half of the book, we learned about the searcher's laws, magic and history, which is necessary, but can be really dull at times. You will discover that almost 80 percent of the book consists of people talking and talking. Calla was mostly silent throughout the whole book. She's the one that's always confused and popping up questions. I know all the questions she had asked was intended for readers to better understand the world of the guardians and searchers. But it can be exhausting and boring for this to repeat over and over. I had to force myself to keep listening in order to get into the second part. It was from there that everything gets interesting. Heart-breaking betrayals, the family secrets........but somehow I know the best part will all be in the third book, Bloodrose. It will be on the bookshelves in spring 2012. We'll wait and see if it gets better.

Solid universe. A little too angsty.

The series so far has a good universe. As an older male though, it does get a little too angsty. all in all it's a good book.

Good Book

It’s your YA Novel. Some things are predictable but the world is becoming more and more fascinating. But half of the book is explaining everything of what is going on and understand for the reader what is going on. But when the real story starts coming in it has twist and turns.
