Product Details

Product Description

From AudioFile

High school graduation looms for Bella, and conventional worries over college applications vie with her plans for immortality and marriage to a vampire classmate, Edward Cullen. In this sequel to Meyers TWILIGHT and NEW MOON, Ilyana Kadushins elegant voice again moves from scenes of typical teen angst to moments of horror, including an attack by newborn vampires on the Cullen family (who have forsaken traditional vampire fodder for big game). Kadushins growling tones and pace are terrific as she differentiates the star-crossed lovers, immersing listeners in the clandestine world that exists around us.

4.0 out of 5 stars Filling in the gaps., Jul 18 2008
By Paul Mauviel "Delicious" (Ottawa, ON CAN) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Eclipse (Hardcover)
I was recently coerced into reading this series by a coworker, and though it's not nearly as good as people make it out to be, it is definatly an easy read and well-worth the time.

The author does a good job of portraying Bella as an angsty teen and narrates in a way that keeps readers interested.

The only real problem I have about this series is that in Twilight and New Moon the reader is put in a world where nothing exists but Edward, Bella, Carlisle, Alice and Jacob. The other characters used in the book aren't fleshed out and don't have a history of their own. Most of the time being used to push Bella to one of the fleshed out characters so something interesting can happen.

This is where I find Eclipse starting to fill in the gaps. Within the first half of the book, we're explained Rosalie's history, the Quielutes(sp?) history and Jasper's history. Other people around the couple start getting much more involved with the story, which is a refreshing departure from the problems-with-edward, make-me-a-vampire sections which have filled most of the previous books.

All things said, this is a good read. It's hard to put it down once you've gotten started though, so make sure you have time to read it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Nobody puts Bella in a corner..., Mar 4 2009
By Juliall "juliall1" (Vancouver, British Columbia Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Eclipse (Hardcover)
....And yet, the "heroine" Bella is content to be passed back and forth like a doll between Edward, Jake, Alice, Charlie, and anyone else willing to babysit her. She is one of the weakest-willed, most utterly uninteresting main characters I've come across- not to mention hypocritical. I honestly don't get what they all see in her...she has no interests or dreams in life outside of being with Edward. Grow up Bella, you spoiled brat!

Both Edward's and Jacob's characters took turns for the worse in this book, which were big mistakes on Stephenie Meyer's part. The Jacob of the first two books would not have kissed Bella against her will, so that scene was surprisingly out of character. (I'm going to forget it happened, because to me, Jake made the 2nd book worth reading.)

Edward struck me as controlling and patronizing, traits which I for one would neither tolerate, nor be attracted to. Stephenie Meyer seems to think that being impossibly beautiful makes that okay. Edward improved a lot towards the end of the book, but were we supposed to be okay with his being such a control freak?

Anyway, I'm still excited to read the fourth book in this series. I hope the author actually knows what she's doing, rather than letting all the potential dissolve into yet another teenage angst-a-thon.

2.0 out of 5 stars Frustrating addition to a frustrating series, April 6 2009
This review is from: Eclipse (Hardcover)
If you read the first two, you'll continue reading this one. Most people have said already exactly how I feel about this book so I'll keep it short. This one is very much like the other two in the series: mediocre writing, mediocre plot, frustration over Bella's lack of character and the way she waffles between Edward and Jacob. It's an okay read, just like the others, but is equally as overrated as the others.

I just don't agree with the hype around this series. It's an easy read and is entertaining at times, but it's really not the greatest series.

4.0 out of 5 stars great
This is a great book. Like New Moon, there is too much lines but still a great story. On a scale of 4 and #1 is the best, Eclipse is the #3.

Enjoy!

This book could have been so much better if she had only edited it better and realized that the logical conclusion was to have Bella end with Jacob rather than Edward. Read more
