    About this audiobook

    The riveting conclusion to a thrilling trilogy from #1 New York Times bestselling master of suspense D. J. MacHale.

    From Marshall's mysterious experiences in The Light to Cooper's haunting perspective in The Black, the questions have intensified along with the action. And now it is time for answers: Witness the showdown between best friends Marshall and Cooper and the terrifying villain Damon, who's more determined than ever to break down the walls between the worlds of the living and the dead.

    Marshall is forced to make a brave and shocking choice when the battle is on the line, and he and Cooper might be rewarded with help from someone quite unexpected....

    As the gripping trilogy heads toward resolution, shocks and surprises await at the end of the long and winding Morpheus Road.

      This is the conclusion of the Morpheus Road trilogy, and I’ve been waiting for it eagerly. The author built up an incredible sense of suspense with the first two books. The first book, ‘The Light’, was told from the POV of teenaged Marshall Seaver. The next book, ‘The Black’, the same events were narrated by his lately deceased best friend, Cooper Foley, and we got to see what was happening on the other side of death. In ‘The Blood’, we get a third person viewpoint that brings them together in a tremendous battle for the universe as we know it. Two thousand year old Damon, the person who killed Cooper and is stalking Marshall, is still trying to find the Poleax, a mystical weapon that has been hidden from him. His intent is to rip open the road between heaven and hell, all for the sake of his ego. The book is an adventure novel, and a coming of age- for the dead Cooper as well as the living Marshall- and a battle between good and evil. But Marshall and Cooper learn that people- even monstrous ones- don’t tend to fit easily into sharp divisions of good and evil, and sometimes you have to make deals that you never thought you would for the good of all. While ‘The Blood’ was confusing at times (I was wishing it hadn’t been a year since I’d read ‘The Black’), it was very satisfying. Marshall and Cooper make a good team, even if Cooper had a hard time learning to stop mother henning Marshall, and we learn a lot more about some of the other characters introduced earlier. The story is non-stop action. My only complaint was that Sydney, Cooper’s sister, was almost left out of the story. She’s a strong, kick-ass character, and to leave her as the lady in waiting was a disappointment.

      As much as I loved this title, it was sad because it was the last in this series...the end of The Morpheus Road but because of certain "cameos", I now have a bigger series to finish reading. The Blood was exciting, full of action, adventure, suspense, and dramatic/thought provoking moments.

      Well worth the wait for the final finish! The author has done a great job of getting everyone involved in the adventure! Really enjoyed them.
