As war erupts among the stars, Kira is launched into a galaxy-spanning odyssey of discovery and transformation.

As an extreme fan of Inheritance Cycle I was nervous coming into a new Paolini world. But the nerves were for naught. What a fabulous elaborate tale, always moving always going somewhere new.
Jennifer Hale (narrator) was so perfect for this story and does an incredible and engaging job.
Highly highly recommend

At last, listeners can experience Edward's version in the long-awaited companion novel, Midnight Sun. This unforgettable tale as told through Edward's eyes takes on a new and decidedly dark twist. Meeting Bella is both the most unnerving and intriguing event he has experienced in all his years as a vampire.

A great new perspective
Reviewed: 08-09-2020
I think this book was great, there are a lot of mixed reviews saying that it makes Edward creepy or intense with his constant struggle of wanting to ‘eat’ her but like.. he was like this in the original book only we didn’t get his ‘real’ struggle and like.. he’s a vampire? Hello what do you expect?
I think his perspective is more romantic and devout and less whingy in the way that Bella was in the original.
Be cool to have all the books from his perspective - a hollow dream but dreams are free.
This book was a joy to listen to! Highly recommend.

I was expelled from the University at a younger age than most people are allowed in. I tread paths by moonlight that others fear to speak of during day.

This story is so great and has long been a favourite. A new experience to listen to it rather than read it. Not a huge fan of how the reader voiced Saphira as it sounded like Yoda.. but amazing nonetheless
