Title: Ruins (Partials Sequence #3)
Author: Dan Wells
Publisher: Balzer + Bray
Release Date: March 11, 2014
Kira, Samm, and Marcus fight to prevent a final war between Partials and humans in the gripping final installment in the Partials Sequence, a series that combines the thrilling action of The Hunger Games with the provocative themes of Blade Runner and The Stand.
There is no avoiding it—the war to decide the fate of both humans and Partials is at hand. Both sides hold in their possession a weapon that could destroy the other, and Kira Walker has precious little time to prevent that from happening. She has one chance to save both species and the world with them, but it will only come at great personal cost.
This is one of my favorite dystopian series! I cannot wait to see how it ends. Please, please, please have a good ending. Regardless, I already know where my March Audible credit is going. :) I listened to the first two on audio, and Julia Whelan is a fantastic narrator. I've listened to a few of her narrations and she always does an amazing job.
Julia Whelan! Love her. I had trouble with Partials so I DNF'd it but I'm rethinking it because everyone else seems to love it. I'm going to give it another try, but maybe I'll go the audio way.
ReplyDeleteThe beginning of Partials was a little tough, but by the end I was making excuses to keep listening.
DeleteSounds pretty dark - I haven't heard of this series, thanks for bringing it to my attention. I like how "ruinous" the cover is!

I don't know if I would call it dark, but it is post apocalyptic and is very heavy on the science fiction. I hope you get a chance to read it!
DeleteI keep hearing how much people love Partials -- I hope this one lives up to expectations!
ReplyDeleteHadn't heard of this series, but it sounds really good. I love the cover. My WoW if you want to stop by!
ReplyDeleteNice pick, I always loved the look of this series but really couldn't get into Partials. I hope this is a great series ender :) Thanks for sharing :) My WoW
ReplyDeleteWill definitely be reading this when it releases. AHHHH IT LOOKS SO GOOD. Great pick
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday <3

Oh yes! This is definitely one of my fav dystopian series too! I hope that it's a solid ending, and not disappointing! I'm scared of series endings after Allegiant! Oh well, fingers crossed right? :) Great choice, Amber! I hope you're having a fab week so far!

I know! Dystopian series are particularly bad at having disappointing endings.
DeleteI know!! Hopefully this one won't be disappointing at all! :)
DeleteOH MANNN. This is one of my favorite series! I cannot wait to see how it ends! Glad to see you are such a fan too. I feel like I am alone sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI've got this whole series on my to-read, but I haven't gotten any of the books yet. Sounds like the previous books are pretty good.
