    About this audiobook

    A world-defying love is put to the ultimate test in the New York Times and USA Today bestselling sequel to Veronica Rossi's ""masterpiece,"" Under the Never Sky (Examiner.com ). In this second book in her spellbinding Under the Never Sky trilogy, bestselling author Veronica Rossi combines fantasy and dystopian elements to create a love story as perilous as it is unforgettable.

    It's been months since Aria last saw Perry. Months since Perry was named Blood Lord of the Tides, and Aria was charged with an impossible mission. Now, finally, they are about to be reunited. But their reunion is far from perfect. The Tides don't take kindly to Aria, a former Dweller. And with the worsening Aether storms threatening the tribe's precarious existence, Aria begins to fear that leaving Perry behind might be the only way to save them both.

    Threatened by false friends and powerful temptations, Aria and Perry wonder, Can their love survive through the ever night?

      BookNook — Young Adult book reviewsSince i wasn't completely sold on Under the Never Sky, I was afraid I would feel the same way about Through the Ever Night, but Veronica Rossi managed to rock my world with this book! It almost makes me wonder if I just wasn't in the right mood or frame of mind when reading Under the Never Sky. If I were to read that book again, would I enjoy it more? Who knows.Through the Ever Night had everything that was missing for me in Under the Never Sky: a gripping plot, characters I cared about, and a story that felt necessary. This book does not suffer from the second-book-in-a-series-syndrome at all! The story is brilliant and has a very strong, clear purpose. Starting at about 50%, each chapter in Through the Ever Night had a little mini cliffhanger. I couldn't stop reading! I just had to find out what happened next!We are finally introduced to Liv in this book, and I loved her! Liv is strong, bold, self-sacrificing, and brave. She's definitely a character who is easy to admire and brilliant to read about. Her relationship with Roar and the tragedy of it is so heartbreaking! Roar is one of my favourite characters EVER! He's the kind of sweet, loyal, caring guy I just want to cuddle! That's why his relationship with Liv breaks my heart so much. They desperately want to be together, but Liv feels like she has a duty to The Tides with her arranged marriage.We also learn a bit more about the Aether and Cinder in this book. Cinder's role really becomes clear in Through the Ever Night, and it's clear that he will be one of the most important characters in the third book—Into the Still Blue.I came to really love Perry's chapters in Through the Ever Night. Perry really had a lot of depth in this book, something I think he was missing in Under the Never Sky. We really watch him struggle with his role as Lord of the Tides. He constantly has to win over the loyalty of The Tides and prove that he's fit to be their leader. And when The Tides don't really accept Aria, he is really torn between his duty to The Tides and his love for her.Part of me wishes that Perry and Aria spent more time together in Through the Ever Night. On the one hand, I love their relationship SO MUCH. It's so sweet when they're together and I love how they love each other so much! But on the other hand, I know why it was necessary for them to be apart, and both of their chapters and the events that occurred in them were so interesting. So I was never bored while I was reading, but I did miss their sweet intimacy when they were apart (which was most of the book).Through the Ever Night really surprised me with how much it affected me. It was full of action, love, heartbreak, loyalty, and survival. There are battles, deaths, conspiracies, starvation, and intimate moments. I have really become attached to this story and I'm now DYING to read the third book!

      Rarely do you find that book 2 in a trilogy is stronger than book 1, but that's what happens here.

      We pick up a few months after Under the Never Sky ends, and finally the author gives me some answers about the Aether storms. I'm not sure if she didn't have an explanation in book 1 or not, but those are the kind of details that I want. The world building was somewhat better in this book, and I liked Perry and Aria more as well. They were better fleshed out characters this time around and there was more action rather than just walking from place to place as they did in book 1.

      Perry is now Blood Lord of the Tides, and Aria is recovering from the shock of her mother's death. They reunite and continue to search for the Still Blue--their only hope for safety in their deteriorating world. Perry makes mistakes, as any young leader would. Aria makes a mature decision to work with Soren for the greater good. And Perry and Aria get a taste for the obstacles they will need to overcome to make their relationship work. Also, more Roar, Reef, Marron and Cinder. All good things.

      Looking forward to reading the conclusion in book 3.
    • 5/5
      Second in a trilogy and in my opinion, even better than the first in the set. Full of sci-fi adventure and romance. Ended with a fantastic cliffhanger that will leave you waiting on pins and needles for the end of the trilogy.
    • 3/5
      ehh... i was pretty bored throughout the whole book and i didn't feel bad for any of the characters but it was a fast read

    • 4/5
      The second book in the series, almost as good as the first. A good thing I don't have book 3 on hand because I wouldn't sleep tonight. I would stay up and read straight through the night.

      Suffers a bit from middle book syndrome but still has some interesting development
    • 5/5
      This is probably my favorite book so far this year. I remembered loving Under the Never Sky but I forgot just how impossible it was to put down. The same thing happened with Through the Ever Night. I started reading it and then just could not stop reading. This was a one sitting book. I loved the characters. Veronica Rossi broke my heart in a couple of places but don't think that I didn't run right out to the bookstore this week to buy the final book because I just have to know what happens next. Wonderful book. I highly recommend it.
    • 3/5
      Meh. I love the characters and the plot was, in theory, decent. However, I needed more about the world: why were the Tides familiar with the seas, why did they chose to start there and why had the Horns started where they had? Why were there raids/lawlessness from bandits other than "the Aether destroyed their homes". If a storm destroyed my home or even, my town, I wouldn't resort to breaking and entering the next town over. So why does it happen here, in this world?The characters really save the book. We are part of their thoughts, while they have real, complex feelings and change from those experiences. I found myself understanding all the complexities there but I was sad to see it happen too quickly, say, in a chapter or even in one case of misunderstanding/forgiveness, in half a page.Perhaps it was all too ambitious. Too many plot lines that needed to wrap up in a certain number of words. I felt the plot was tied up too quickly...and fa la la, we're all happy and going to work it all out. That type of thought seemed out of character for Perry, a consummate worrier and more apt for Aria.
    • 4/5
      This is the kind of love story that I want to read an crave for. Love this series!
    • 4/5
      A little slower than the first book. Hoping the third book offers a little more. Still, a well-written book and I am enjoying the story.
    • 4/5
      There's a lot going on in this series, enough to keep me entertained anyways but I'm just not particularly head over heels in love with it. I think mainly because, even though I like the alternate world it's set in, I can't say that I fully understand how the smart eye and the fractioning to the different realms could really work. Maybe if I could suspend my disbelief and ignore those pesky details then I might enjoy it more.

      I'm also listening to the audio version of this series and I don't particularly care for either narrators. Now, Michael Goldstrom, the narrator of this second book is better then Bernadette Dunne Flagler, who narrates the first and third books of the series but neither one are great. Both of their voices are monotone and kind of boring with no real emotion behind their narration so that's not helping my experience either.

      Rossi though, is very good with character development. I'm thoroughly invested now in all of the characters, especially Perry, Aria, Roar, Cinder and the Tides so I'm definitely going to continue with the final book. I wouldn't dare miss the outcome of their story for anything. 
    • 5/5
      How long until the next one comes out??? Really like the characters in this series.
    • 5/5
      I enjoyed this book every bit as much as the first! There are more adventures to be had and we get to see Liv again for the first time since the prequel (if you read that first.) I really enjoy Aria and Roar's friendship and how Aria and Perry's relationship has grown and still seems to be evolving. Perry faces difficulties he didn't expect in the Tides, the Aether is still a problem and now the Horns are a different kind of problem, so there's plenty to keep the reader's mind going and keep you on the edge of your seat. The ending is somewhat of a cliffhanger, so beware of that. Luckily, I checked out book 3 from the library yesterday! If you enjoy an adventure type book or dystopian at all, this is a great series to check out.
    • 4/5
      LOVED it! Can't wait for book 3!
    • 4/5
      Overall it was pretty good. Bit slow towards the beginning and not a whole lot happened until the last 100 pages and then all the action/big events were kind of jammed in towards the end. I would like to see where the story goes, but I wish there had been more to this book because it felt fairly short. Full review to come later.
    • 5/5
      This is going down as one of my favorite YA series with the last book being the best of the three (a feat in and of itself). Beautiful, funny, sweet, heart-breaking, and thrilling- I devoured it in one day. The thing that surprised me most was that my favorite thing about this series was Aria's and Roar's friendship. Usually I am all about the romance but I felt no need for these two to be together romantically. Their closeness and care for each other was so endearing, their interactions often had me laughing. And the greatest thing was it did not diminish the romance between Aria and Perry but rather enhanced it. It took away the problem that most YA love stories have (the two only caring about each other without friends or interests outside of their relationship).

      The end was good without being too perfect. It was fitting. Aria is a fantastic heroine. She is written as badass but not in a cheesy way. She is smart and funny. She doesn't take anyone's crap but she always willing to forgive and open her heart to people. I wish more leading ladies were written like her.

      Highly, highly recommend this series.
    • 5/5
      I have read mixed reviews about this book but, I have to say I simply love this trilogy. I thought long about why I like it so much and others don't. I came to the conclusion that it is the romance I love throughout the book. It is so tender and well written it also doesn't shy away from the physical side of attraction that other YA novels do. It has been a criticism with may trilogies that the second book can drop off and be the poor relation to the other two. This is certainly not the case with Through the Ever Night. In fact I would say that this book is better than the first. The characters are well developed and engaging my favourite actually is one of the supporting characters. Roar for me is someone that I wish was my friend he is loyal, funny and charismatic. I have to also say that I love the two main characters although some have said they do not.Another strength of this trilogy is that the books finish. Both novels have a start, middle and end and do not rely on the other two books to complete part of the story. There is also enough joy in reading them to make you want to continue with the series. For me this is fast becoming one of my favourite YA trilogies and with competition such as The Hunger Games and Divergent that is quite a claim.
    • 5/5
      An excellent sequel to an great book. Characters are just more likable, the story progression is even better and the world gets even bigger.
    • 5/5
      Nice 2nd book, ties up some ends and makes new ones. Not a horrible cliffhanger like some other books. Satisfied but still waiting the next installment
    • 5/5
      Left me wanting for more.
    • 4/5
      Ah man, I was loving this book so much, even with Aria and Perry away from each other for so many pages (TOO MANY!!), BUT I absolutely hated those scenes between Perry and Kirra---totally disgusting and unnecessary. They made me hate him for a while, and I'm still waiting for him to tell Aria about it, because she should know.Sadly I'll have to take a star from my rating because of this whole thing. >_>
    • 4/5
      Through the Ever Night is the 2nd book in the Under the Never Sky series by Veronica Rossi. It continues the story of Aria and Perry trying to survive in the outside world with its violent storms. Aria and Perry, from two different worlds, fell in love in the first book, Under the Never Sky. They were apart for a long time as Aria went home. With the beginning of Through the Ever Night, they are set to be together again.Perry is now leader of the Tides, the people who live out in the wild. They don't trust Aria's people, the Dwellers, so Aria has a hard time fitting in. Perry must keep his people safe, even if it's against their wishes, plus he and Aria still need to save his little brother. How do they keep their relationship alive if they must separate again?There's a lot of tension and in-fighting in the story. The people must learn to work together and accept help from outsiders in order to survive, and they may not be able to do it. The action never stops in this exciting sequel to Under the Never Sky. It's a must read series for dystopian lovers!
    • 4/5
      This sequel did not disappoint (as sequels usually do!) Perhaps I've had more time with the characters now, but they've grown on me, especially Roar. I really enjoyed the setting of this book. Even though it takes place in post-apocalyptic times (i.e., the future)...it had such a pre-historic feel to it (and I love pre-historic stories like Clan of the Cave Bear.) It is an interesting concept to think that hundreds of years into the past could be so similar to hundreds of years into the future. I'm not sure if it's a statement the author intended to make, but I thought it was a powerful one nonetheless.
    • 4/5
      So great, wish I had the last one... because I kind of feel lost without the story being complete!
    • 4/5
      VOYA Rating: 4Q 4PHighly Recommended After months of being apart, Aria and Perry reunite. Perry is now the Blood Lord of his tribe and Aria is an orphan cast out again from Reverie. Things are changing because both worlds are now threatened by the Aether storms. Both societies need to find the Still Blue in order to survive. Hess has sent Aria out to find it and Perry needs to find it for his tribe so that they survive. Fighting between other tribes is escalating and the Pods can no longer stand up to the storms. It is a fight for food and a safe place to live.I think this second book picks up right where the first book left off. Still lots of adventure and romance. Characters continue to be developed and new relationships and treachery are discovered. I think that if readers were to read only the second book, they would be confused. Aria keeps in contact with Hess with a Smarteye device. She has to because he is blackmailing her with the safety of Perry’s nephew, Talon. They need to find the Still Blue. This is a place that is safe from the Aether storms and people could live there and rebuild their society. Unfortunately, no one knows if it’s real or where it is.I would still recommend this to high school students. Not too much is objectionable, but there are some sex scenes and graphic violence. A lot of bad guys die. I would recommend this book to both boys and girls. The romance and the adventure balance each other out. Students would enjoy discussing this story. I think it’s a good choice for school libraries. It would be ideal for literature circles or book clubs. I thought it was a gripping dystopian story. I am looking forward to the conclusion of this trilogy.
    • 5/5
      If you haven’t read Under the Never Sky yet, the first in this series, then you definitely should get on that… We return the the story of Perry and Aria–Perry is Blood Lord of the Tides and Aria is searching for a way to the Still Blue and the safety from the Aether it promises in order to save Perry’s nephew, Talon (and all the rest of them). The Aether storms are getting stronger and more frequent, and Perry is trying to keep the Tides together and faces all the struggles that come with leading the tribe. Roar is searching for Liv and through it all, there’s a growing distance in Perry and Aria’s relationship. Can they survive it all? This one is a page-turner for sure, filled with action and suspense and frustrations and loss. I only put it down when I had to go to work, and picked it right up again as soon as I got home. This is a must-read series, and I hear that movie rights are being/have been talked about for it, so keep on the lookout for that:) Positively a 5/5 stars ;)
    • 4/5
      Aww... Well everyone of importance--minus one *sob*--survived and now I cant wait to find out how it all ends
    • 5/5
      I was over-the-moon excited to read this one. But with the other great novels I've read recently, the second installment in the Under The Never Sky Trilogy felt very...AMAZING. HAHA Fooled ya! This is an epic book with so much epicness its hard to describe. At this point, after trying to pull my thoughts (since January) into a coherent couple of paragraphs without sounding like a raging fangirl, I'm unsure of what to say that hasn't already been said, so this is enough for now.

      Go buy it people!
    • 4/5
      Aria has to quest to find the Still Blue to save Talon, who is being held in Reverie to ensure she complies and hunts. She's back with Perry who is struggling with the balance of leadership and love for her. The politics of the situation is getting deadly and the storms are getting worse.Interesting read, the characters are fleshing out nicely, the stress is also visible and the situations are not getting any better. They are young to be dealing with these situations but they are also quite aware of the reality of this situation for themselves, this is not light stuff, it's pretty realistic within the parameters of the world and I'm quite interested to see what happens next.
