Rebellion: the epic conclusion to the dystopian series (The 100)

OMG I couldn’t put this down!! The first book was my favourite, until I read this one! It’s the perfect ending for the series and the final chapters have so much action your pulse will be racing as if you’re in the midst of it all.

Some pages (only 2-3) had this green line through them, but it was only on the inner part where no words were so it didn't affect my reading experience. Either way this was my favourite book out of the series, it had a very nice flow and interesting plot.

Good book to read over all.

This book like it's predecessors had me hooked from page one. I struggled to set it down after I started reading and was vexed when I had finished it! I hope more books are written.

So, I have been making my way through this series and feeling a little bit more disheartened with every book, the whole plot just seemed to be getting more contrite. I have never seen the TV show, so all of my opinions are about the book alone.After reading book 3, I had mixed emotions, the story is still fast paced and the characters still likeable enough but there were quite a few things that irked me within the storyline. I actually thought the third book ended fairly solidly and could have been left as a trilogy, but i had the books in a box set and knew there was a fourth, so I was intrigued to see what could be added in to make another story,I have to admit that I read the blurb of this one and immediately thought 'oh for goodness sake, help me'. But i wanted to give it a chance and see if the author could pull it off. The whole cult narrative is so overdone, i didn't have much hope, but we shall see.***This review contains spoilers***The 100 have overcome dangerous landings on earth, healed many injuries, fought off ferocious Earthborns and overcome Vice Chancellor Rhodes and his maniacal schemes, so what should they do next - oh yeah, have a party!This book starts with them all preparing to have a great feast, Bellamy of course senses something wrong, but everyone ignores him. They elected him as a Chancellor on the new democratic council and supposedly put their trust in him, but as soon as he mentions danger, they basically say he is crazy. And what happens - they get attacked again!!!Out of the four main narrators, Wells and Glass get taken by the attackers as hostages whilst Bellamy and Clarke get left behind to stage a rescue mission.The Cult they get taken by celebrate the earth and have apparently been traveling across the world, infiltrating settlements and camps, killing people, stealing supply and kidnapping people - but yet no one has ever heard of them before. Their camp is only 2-3 days walk away from our 100's base - yet no sign or signal from them before this attack. Seems a little bit too convenient for them to just pop up now!Well and Glass are taken along with a number of others from the camp, but they are put into rooms with each other (separating boys and girls of course), but there is nothing to stop them from talking or planning to escape to escape, on top of that - they are only in the camp for a couple of days before they are trusted enough to be given responsibility and even guns! Is it just me or did you think brainwashing usually took longer than that?!Bellamy and Clarke are once again having thier ups and downs, playing the whole 'he/she doesn't trust me' thing that is getting really tiresome now. We also have 'Paul' introduced - a man who used to be a guard on the ship and now thinks he knows best and is gods gift. As far as I can tell, he is only there to be an annoyance and cause a rift between Bellamy and Clarke, as he continually flirts with Clarke.The book itself is still fast paced and has plenty of action to keep the plot moving, but I just found a lot of it to be very unbelievable. I found myself getting frustrated with the characters and rolling my eyes at the ridiculous events and actions they were forced through. I was also hoping for Clarke's parents to play more of a part, as their return was really hyped up, but as far as I can tell, they are just more background players. You don't learn about anything they did in those few years they were wondering on earth or how they survived. They just fade into the background.The ending is all neatly wrapped up, so hopefully it will be left there, as I really don't see anywhere else this could now go.Overall, I feel quite disappointed with this book and I was hoping for more. Overall I think that book 1 is very good and enjoyable, but it slowly goes downhill after that. I just expected something that would wow me.

At first I thought a fourth book was a mistake but as it progressed,I realised how good it was as I said in the title, a fitting finale.

As with the other books in this series, this one picks up where Homecoming (the 3rd book in the series) left off.We join the characters a month after the dropships arrived and the colonists and the earthborns are getting along well and preparing to celebrate with a harvest feast. Just as they are all gathering together members of an earth-worshipping cult ambush them, killing some people and kidnapping others. They steal their supplies and burn their village. The book then splits into two sections, the kidnapped people (including Wells and Glass) as they are taken away and a rescue party (including Clarke and Bellamy) as they head out to get their friends back.As before, this is another quick read and is written from a third person point of view but alternates between the main four characters. I felt this was a good but not excellent read and a good way to end the series (I have no idea if there will be any further books written). If you enjoyed the first 3, you should read and enjoy this one one too.

Fabulous book so pleased that the series has turned out to be so different but equally as excellent as the books

Livro perfeito

So yes, I'm going to be THAT person. Normally, I am an avid reader who can enjoy both TV shows/movies and their book counterparts. Like Harry Potter, Hunger Games, etc.; I love both book and movie. However, I stray from that feeling when it comes to The 100 series. I was super interested in the TV show when it came out, but quickly lost interest. I read the entire series of books and enjoyed it so much more! Clarke and Bellamy's relationship in the books is much more complete and less of this fighting, "will they, won't they" stuff, which I really don't like most of the time. I felt more connected to the characters in the books and felt the plot line was less convoluted than in the TV show. Even setting aside the fact that it was also made in to a TV show, it's a great book in the dystopian genre, which is one of my favorites. I would highly encourage this entire series.

Loveeeeeeeeee this series

It is a very good and fresh fourth story, I was concerned that the books become more like the tv show (which I totally love) but luckily it is totally different.So I can enjoy two seperate stories with seperate developments of the same charakters, which is totally fascinating! I really loved the book and totally recommend it even if you just know and love the tv show

Every page turned into just one more page. Love, loss, adventure, friendship & violence is Rebellion. Something for everyone in this page turner
