Undying An Unearthed Novel Amie Kaufman Meagan Spooner Books

This book is one of the most fun reads I've read, and it is the perfect sequel to the first book. The transition from one book to the other was brilliant, as the characters shift from trying to save their families and themselves to trying to save the world. It was action packed, romantic, and gritty. It pretty much had all the elements I love from explosive action to complex characters. That ending really got me, and I was pretty much in tears through the last 20 pages, and I can't believe this fun book reduced me to tears. If you're looking for an adventurous book with a lot of heart I'd look no further than this book with Mia and Jules. Undying promises an exciting adventure, and it completely delivers. This book was the perfect remedy for my days I felt down, and it never failed to suck me in and take me away for a few hours. I can't wait to read what Amie Kaufman and Megan Spooner write next!

Undying An Unearthed Novel Amie Kaufman Meagan Spooner Books Reviews

Unearthed led listeners on an edge of your seat twisting sci-fi archaeological adventure that left things at a breathtaking cliffhanger for Mia and Jules.

Undying begins with a nice letter from the authors that catches readers up on the world of the duology and where things are at in the story before diving back in.

This is not a good place to summarize details or it will ruin some of the brilliant high points of the first book, Unearthed. I'm going to go vague and stick with impressions and observations rather than a recap. This actually works good because there are aspects of the way this one wraps up that left me not really sure what I thought about it.

First of all, if you, like me, had your interest piqued by the archaeological adventure aspect with puzzles and mysteries of the first book, that is way scaled back since the focus is more on how to save earth which was already in desperate straights due to over population and not enough resources. Instead, we are brought back to earth, so to speak, with earth politics and getting everyone on board with the threat that is now come to earth.

There was also a teenage romance brewing strongly in book one between all the dangerous traps and close calls that is more of partners and friends in this one. I actually liked this because I felt the focus on survival on what the pair inadvertently unleashed on earth is the better focus. I continued to like Mia and Jules separately and together. Mia is still the kickbutt action heroine and Jules more the intellectual type, but they work together well especially now that they've established trust and understanding from their earlier adventures. I enjoyed seeing the addition of some other characters in the mix to change the isolation dynamic that was present in book one.

While, this one is missing the puzzles and traps and mysterious other planet quality of the first book, it is by no means dull. Rushing to save your life and the lives of everyone on earth will do that for you. If I have a niggle, it was that I wanted to slow things down a bit there at the end and tease some things out better.

The narrators, Alex McKenna and Steve West who traded off the narration in the first book were consistent with that book and still fabulous, but, we added Vikas Adam to the mix. Other's have praised his work and I can see why now. They all did a great job bringing this exciting sci-fi to life and portraying the characters. I would definitely listen to more work by all three of them.

All in all, I enjoyed this young adult sci-fi and can recommend it to those who want a lot of action and twists to their story headed by a pair of engaging characters.
Today is a pretty big release day. I woke up to several new audiobooks and emails notifying me of incoming preorders. Exciting! But how do you pick which one to read first. Some of us have extensive spreadsheets, some of us are mood readers, and some people just want to be reminded. I finished Undying in a day after marathoning the audiobook because I was desperate to know what happens to Jules and Mia. Check out my 5 reasons why Undying is your read this release day!

(Slight spoilers for Unearthed below)

1. Mia and Jules. The story is told in their alternating voices and if you don’t fall in love with Mia’s charge-into-everything and Jules’ wait-lets-think-about-this banter, I don’t even know how to please you. These two are completely lovable and it’s no secret there’s some romance here. Faced with dying (and the Undying), you’ll see them grapple with their completely different upbringings and futures along with self preservation vs no person left behind. I definitely read this series for the characters.
2. The Undying. At the end of Unearthed, we are left with knowing very little about the alien race Mia and Jules are hiding from. Meg and Amie use Undying as a way to go deep into worldbuilding and create some awesome side characters. Come for the puzzles in Unearthed, stay for the gasps as Mia and Jules uncover more info about the Undying and their motivation. You will NOT see it coming.
3. The feels. Like can we ever read Amie without wanting to send her our medical bills for constantly trying to kill us? There are some pretty big O M G moments in this book and every time I thought I knew what this book was going to throw at me, I was wrong. So expect to have a lot of emotions and let’s form a therapy group after.
4. Action packed. See above, right? Mia and Jules are constantly on the run or hiding or generally just trying not to get caught but a killer alien race. This action packed story will keep you turning the page (or speeding up the audiobook) just to see what’s coming next.
5. Excellent narrators. I listened to both books and loved the dual narration. Alex McKenna has this perfect, slightly scratchy voice that I love for space books and Steve West is just universally loved for his emotive voice.

Bonus it’s a duology so once you’re done, you’re done with the series. I love when that happens.
This book is one of the most fun reads I've read, and it is the perfect sequel to the first book. The transition from one book to the other was brilliant, as the characters shift from trying to save their families and themselves to trying to save the world. It was action packed, romantic, and gritty. It pretty much had all the elements I love from explosive action to complex characters.

If you're looking for an adventurous book with a lot of heart I'd look no further than this book with Mia and Jules. Undying promises an exciting adventure, and it completely delivers. This book was the perfect remedy for my days I felt down, and it never failed to suck me in and take me away for a few hours. I can't wait to read what Amie Kaufman and Megan Spooner write next!
