The United Continuums The Continuum Trilogy Book 3 Jennifer Brody Books
This book held up very nicely as a final installment. All in all, a dandy dystopian trilogy and one that surprised me in all three books by the plot structure, layering and world alteration. Scary to think the Doom part might be right around the corner, but minus the continuum option. For those who haven't read this one, I bet Seeker grown on you.

The United Continuums The Continuum Trilogy Book 3 Jennifer Brody Books Reviews
This just might be my favorite book out of the 3 in Jennifer Brody's Continuum series. Book 1 set the scene and did a great job of letting us in on the fabulous new worlds of underwater and outer space, Book 2 brought the action, and Book 3 had me on the edge of my seat from page 1 until the very end. I blew through this book, as I could not put it down. There isn't much I can say without giving it away -- the ending is something that should be experienced on your own and definitely not spoiled -- but this book picks up exactly where Book 2 left us. You'll get some instant resolution to that epic cliffhanger that Brody left us with for months and months and months. I had to wait soooo long to find out what happened to the Continuums but am so happy that this book went where it did. It completely wrapped up everything better than I could have ever imagined. Now that it's done I find myself thinking about the characters from time to time and imagining what they are up to now. Bummed that there isn't a 4th book (Brody take note) but I do hear rumors that this might turn into a film series. Fingers crossed!
The United Continuums neatly wraps up the trilogy but also leaves open the possibility for future stories. Although the ending was satisfying, perhaps too much time was spent on the other continuums and not enough focus on our protagonists. But those who really liked the first two books will find more of the same here.
Story The Second Continuum has reappeared in space and has made its intentions known to wrest control of the Doom project and destroy the other continuums. Myra, Aero, and Seeker will each have a battle to fight Aero to regain control of the Second Continuum, Seeker, to influence her people, and Myra to prevent the evil Second Continuum leader Drakken from killing her in dreamspace. But each of their continuums are lead by selfish and destructive individuals just as dangerous as Drakken - will they be able to unite the continuums in the fight against Drakken?
Admittedly, I liked this book least of the three. For one, it's frustrating to once again have a 'big bad' telling our heroes his exact plans down to the finest detail - sure, he's a megalomaniac; but that doesn't mean he has to twist his metaphorical mustache while revealing all his nefarious plans. Similarly, even the name Drakken sounds cartoony to the point of middle grade read. It was hard to take it seriously when he was monologuing his evil plans.
Similarly, I found the focus of the book to be all over the place. I think the writer perhaps didn't have enough plot while the heroes essentially 'waited' for Drakken to arrive. So we have the POV switching from each of the continuums Aero and Seeker taking control back of theirs was fine but I admit I lost interest reading so much about what was still happening in the 13th continuum underwater. I think I would have preferred to be surprised about whether they made it or not rather than continuing to follow their story and taking away from the main plot of Aero, Seeker, Myra.
Also kind of frustrating was the lack of nuance between good and evil. The evil were evil - just for the point of being evil. Similarly, the good guys also felt narrowly drawn and far too good. I especially grew annoyed with Divinus' 'my dear' over and over again to Myra. He could be paternal without it, to be honest, and it wouldn't have come off so treacly.
I think as a shallow read the book is fine - and most should be very satisfied with it. I just expected much more at this point - more richness and nuance in the world and characters. Reviewed from an advance reader copy provided by the publisher.
Incredible!!! Love this series!!
Very imaginative. Very well written. A real page burner- hard to put down and easy to read!
Reviewed on Goodreads and Raging Book Reviews...
Great story I enjoyed reading this series. Great characters and storyline. The only thing that seemed out if place was the Kraken but who knows what really lives in the deep especially otter a thousand years of evolution without man's influence. It's is also left open for stories in the series. Surely some of the other Continuums survived. I would love to read more
Jennifer Brody hits it out of the park with The United Continuums, the big finale to her trilogy!
The story starts with an intriguing flashback in time before giving us information that adds more depth to her story, quickly giving context without slowing the action--and then the action hits. She doesn't let up, interweaving the surviving Continuums and the three Carriers as they face a threat that is more powerful and ruthless than they could ever be. It's a great setup and Drakken is a fantastic bad guy, as ruthless and intelligent as you would want in a villain.
I won't give anything away. Besides, you should stop reading this review and buy the United Continuums. If you haven't read the first two in the series, do that first! It's so worth it! I thoroughly enjoyed the story and series.
This book held up very nicely as a final installment. All in all, a dandy dystopian trilogy and one that surprised me in all three books by the plot structure, layering and world alteration. Scary to think the Doom part might be right around the corner, but minus the continuum option. For those who haven't read this one, I bet Seeker grown on you.
