The Ends of the World

by Maggie Hall Narrated by Julia Whelan

Overview

The thrilling conclusion to the romantic adventure series that TeenVogue.com calls, a "Da Vinci Code-style thriller for teens."

Power balances on a knife's edge. Destiny is uncertain. And love is the most terrifying thing of all.*

The Circle of Twelve is not who Avery though they were. Neither is Avery.

Her mother is dead. Betrayal and attraction and history have tangled the strings that bind her, Jack, and Stellan. And now, Avery and her friends must put aside their own problems and focus on putting a stop to the most dangerous conspiracy of all . . .*

From London to Russia to Egypt, from the chill of underground crypts to the flash of paparazzi cameras, Avery West will finally have to confront whether her fate means salvation--or destruction.

A millennia-old global conspiracy comes to a climax with all the overwrought personal drama this trilogy has promised.Avery, once an ordinary, violet-eyed American white girl, now is identified as a member of the world-ruling cabal, the Circle of Twelve. Since the time of Alexander the Great, the Circle's families have secretly controlled the world's governments, corporations, and media—but they still anticipate the prophecy of the girl with violet eyes and the One. Now Avery knows that she and white, blond, Russian Stellan (her one-time kidnapper, one-time smoocher) are the two destined to change everything. Avery's blood, when mixed with Stellan's, produces one of the deadliest biological weapons the world has ever known. Her recently rediscovered Circle family commits gleeful mass murder with Avery's stolen blood in a quest for power. The series' trademark sudden-yet-inevitable betrayals cause dramatic uproar but have minimal effect on the plot. Given the deadly risk if their blood is mixed, Avery and Stellan's romantic choices (petting each other's freshly inked matching tattoos; insisting on dashing off together into an obvious trap; bandaging each other's blood-soaked wounds when other potential medics are available) serve only to diminish the importance of impending doom. Uneven prose and illogical events abound in what's clearly not the foretold savior of epic forbidden-love trilogies. (Paranormal thriller. 12-16)
