Their Fractured Light (Starbound, #3)

by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner

A year ago, Flynn Cormac and Jubilee Chase made the now infamous Avon Broadcast, calling on the galaxy to witness for their planet, and protect them from destruction. Some say Flynn's a madman, others whisper about conspiracies. Nobody knows the truth. A year before that, Tarver Merendsen and Lilac LaRoux were rescued from a terrible shipwreck-now, they live a public life in front of the cameras, and a secret life away from the world's gaze.

Slow clap it out for this one.

This entire series was phenomenal. The characters were some of the best developed that I have ever seen. The setting and storyline were so unique. This is easily one of my favorite YA series. Initially, I wasn't sure how having three separate sets of protagonists throughout the series would impact the overall progression and continuity of the storyline, but it was done so in a way that ensured the reader was not overwhelmed. And by only switching between two points-of-view in each book, it was very hard to get confused. Protagonists from previous books played large parts in this final installment, but everything was told from either Gideon or Sofia's viewpoint, which definitely helped during scenes where there was a lot going on. By the way, how great are these character names?! Lilac LaRoux, Tarver Merendsen, Flynn Cormac, Jubilee Chase, Gideon Marchant, and Sofia Quinn. After completing the series, they all have distinct physical and personality traits in my mind, like I can almost see them. That, my friends, is excellent writing.

The narration for all three of these books was great, as well. Especially for the parts involving the "Whispers". The narration and sound effects really enhanced the story's power. ~The Audiobookworm
