Ellis Island, 1902. Francesca arrives on the shores of America, her sights set on a better life than the one she left in Italy. That same day, aspiring linguist Alma reports to her first day of work at the immigrant processing center. Ellis, though, is not the refuge it first appears thanks to President Roosevelt's attempts to deter crime. Francesca and Alma will have to rely on each other to escape its corruption and claim the American dreams they were promised.

There were parts to the story line that were predictable and slow, but it filled a void between listens

Titanic Replica
Revisado: 10-19-21
I was very surprised to find so many similarities to the movie Titanic. A ship wreck with a lost necklace... very disappointed with the book from Nora Roberts

The Ending!!!!!
Revisado: 09-01-20
I've had this book in my Library for quite a while and finally had the chance to listen to it... and I wonder now why I left it sit for so long! It was well written with many twists and turns. It kept me engaged from beginning to end. And talk about endings...boom!

Not a fan
Revisado: 10-12-18
I'm don't mind a dystopian story line and this one was ok. But the performance was so dull. I struggled to get through it. Probably would have liked it better had I read the book.

I really like having the background on so many of the characters. I don't know that I would have had the same connection with some of the characters if I had not listened to the prequels first. Great way to start this series!

This has been coming up as a recommendation for a while and I've always put it off. But I'm glad I waited until the prequels were available to begin listening. They really gave me an immediate connection with all the characters

Revisado: 03-02-18
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
The book was not well written. It did not keep my attention. Replayed the first couple of chapters a 2nd time but the story line was just so slow

How did the narrator detract from the book?

This needs to be made into a MOVIE!!!!
Revisado: 07-02-15
Would you consider the audio edition of Sea of Stars to be better than the print version?
never read the printed version, loved the audio version
Who was your favorite character and why?
Wayra comes to mind first...just love his attitude
Which scene was your favorite?
When all the Kavars bestow gifts upon Trey and Kricket whey they announce their commitement to each other
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
It would have to be something about her paper heart... love that analogy through out the series
Any additional comments?
This series is modern story line that would relate well to a wide audience and should be made into a movie. I think it would draw the same audience that took a liking to The Hunger Games Series and The Divergent Series. Movie, Movie, Movie... please!!!

Revisado: 06-04-15
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Thats kind of a random question since you really need to read book 1 and 2 first. So my answer would be no
How could the performance have been better?
the high pitched voice is not easy to listen to
