About this listen

 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING SERIES • The squad you love is out of time. Prepare for the thrilling finale in the epic, best-selling Aurora Cycle series about a band of unlikely heroes who just might be the galaxy's last hope for survival.

Is this the end?

What happens when you ask a bunch of losers, discipline cases, and misfits to save the galaxy from an ancient evil? The ancient evil wins, of course.

Wait. . . . Not. So. Fast.

When we last saw Squad 312, they working together seamlessly (aka, freaking out) as an intergalactic battle raged and an ancient superweapon threatened to obliterate Earth. Everything went horribly wrong, naturally.

But as it turns out, not all endings are endings, and the team has one last chance to rewrite theirs. Maybe two. It's complicated.

Cue Zila, Fin, and Scarlett (and MAGELLAN!): making friends, making enemies, and making history? Sure, no problem

Cue Tyler, Kal, and Auri: uniting with two of the galaxy’s most hated villains? Um, okay. That, too.

Actually saving the galaxy, though? Now that will take a miracle.

"We the Legion. We the light. Burning bright against the night."

The third installment of 'The Aurora Cycle' is INCREDIBLE, I am not feeling nothing, in fact, I am feeling EVERYTHING.

'Aurora Rising' ended on a massive cliff-hanger, leaving Squad 312 in a death-is-imminent situation. Yet Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff prove in 'Aurora's End' that dire circumstances are a 'piece of bake' to recover from, and an end is not always the end. As the Squad comes to terms with the baffling reality of being alive, and the interesting and perplexing dilemma's they find themselves in, they continue to fight - with their incredibly good looks in tack (mostly) - for the galaxy against the Ra'haam, divided though they may be.

'Aurora's End' is a truly engaging journey which flows perfectly. I was absolutely floored by the characters - for the third time! - and their verbal, and non-verbal interactions - Kaufman and Kristoff, as per usual, artfully wield humour as a finely honed blade, hitting the mark with continuous precision. Every twist and turn Squad 312 faces throughout the book are epic and often emotional - I was genuinely surprised near the end. And if you have forgotten some of the important details since you last read 'Aurora Rising', never fear, the authors have you covered with the opening 'Stuff You Should Know' section; I honestly wish all authors did this, it is great having a memory assist.

Unfortunately, I finished the book too quickly, and I was not ready to move on. Which is why I shifted sideways, straight to the audiobook that has allowed me to experience everything again, in a much more vibrant way. The narrators are terrific, they all truly capture and convey their characters - their personalities and manners of speaking. And just to note, the way Jonathan McClain portrayed Tyler gave me Captain Kerk vibes, so perfect!

I am not feeling nothing.

I know it's YA but I sometimes think they force the characters not to evolve or make wired decisions that make them remain teen-like even though their personality or experiences mean they should have grown somewhat.

Sorta spoiler: In what reality would Sadie, the templar of the unbroken, go on beach holiday?

Decent and satisfying, if a bit cringy at times
