About this listen

Firstlife, an Everlife Novel

One choice.

Two realms.

No second chance.

Tenley "Ten" Lockwood is an average 17-year-old girl...who has spent the past 13 months locked inside the Prynne Asylum. The reason? Not her obsession with numbers but her refusal to let her parents choose where she'll live - after she dies.

There is an eternal truth most of the world has come to accept: Firstlife is merely a dress rehearsal, and real life begins after death.

In the Everlife, two realms are in power: Troika and Myriad, longtime enemies and deadly rivals. Both will do anything to recruit Ten, including sending their top Laborers to lure her to their side. Soon Ten finds herself on the run, caught in a wild tug-of-war between the two realms who will do anything to win the right to her soul. Who can she trust? And what if the realm she's drawn to isn't where the boy she's falling for lives? She just has to stay alive long enough to make a decision.

Loved this book!

This book is action packed with a great story line! I loved the three main characters, Ten, Killian and Archer. I think if you enjoyed the Divergent series you will enjoy this book. I am hanging out for the second book to find out what happens to Ten!

Awesome performance

Loved the performance, en really enjoyed the story. Although a bit trite at times it also made me smile at others. And I did get lost in the reading.

Not a fan

The idea of this story is strange but could be great. What puts me off the most is that she falls for a guy who is clearly a d***head and shes warned about how he messes up other peoples lives and yet she is so onto him!! Its SO annoying and in my life, SO unrealistic. A persons personality and morals are way more important than looks.
The narrator is okay but I felt a few times ahe mixed up the accents or if two different voices/characters were having a conversation she wasnt able to define each characters usual accents.
