    About this audiobook

    X-Men meets Marissa Meyer’s Renegades when New York Times bestselling author of the Uglies series Scott Westerfeld teams up with award-winning authors Margo Lanagan and Deborah Biancotti in the final book of an explosive trilogy about six teens with unique abilities.

    The Zeroes are in disarray.

    One of them has vanished. One of them is in prison. The rest are on the most-wanted list. And something big is brewing.

    Accused of murdering Swarm, Bellwether is in a high-security prison, isolated and unable to use his powers of influence. Flicker, Crash, Mob, and Scam are on the run as suspected domestic terrorists. And Agent Phan of the FBI has a secret weapon up his sleeve—a teenager with a superpower that the Zeroes haven’t encountered yet.

    After a daring breakout, the group is drawn to New Orleans, where celebrating Mardi Gras crowds promise enormous power to anyone who can channel it. There, an army of Zeroes is gathering around a charismatic leader—whose plans are nothing short of cataclysmic.

    Time is running out for the Zeroes, but they must learn to trust one another again if they want to avert the looming disaster.

      There is just something about scott westerfields books that puts you straight in there. You can't help but fall in love with each and every imperfection of the beleivable characters and the intricate character arcs! It's like finding new best friends you want to know more about and following them through realistic everyday and not to everyday-superpower struggles. Way to go Scott ! amazingly fun read
    • 5/5
      That was an absolute great, and untraditional, way to end a series. The completion brought up a feeling I can't describe, somewhere in a blender mixed with completeness, finality, and sadness. You think you want your questions answered, until you get them, and you know there won't be any more to the series.
      Scoping back out, Scott Westerfeld has many more books to explore and I greatly encourage my friends to try audiobooks and to listen in on the world's he creates. You could say they're, wondermaking.
    • 4/5
      This had a great battle scene towards the end but I feel these characters are relentlessly hard on themselves. The plan of the antagonist is one that has been told before ablns I felt with the imagination. Of the creation of the characters, there could have been a better idea in how they could take over the world. Regardless, this has a hint of romance, which makes this skeptic happy.
    • 4/5
      Our favorite group of Zeroes saves the day, but not before they are seduced and confused by the shifting ethics of their superpower lives. They grapple with such questions as where their loyalties lie, how far is too far in defending themselves, and how do they resist the darker side of their powers? Overall, an entertaining series.
