Acerca de esta escucha

Six years earlier, Matty had come to Village as a scrappy and devious little boy. Back then, he liked to call himself "the Fiercest of the Fierce." But since that time, Matty has grown almost into a man under the care of Seer, a blind man whose special sight had earned him the name. Now Matty hopes that he will soon be given his true name, and he hopes it will be Messenger. But strange changes are taking place in Village. Once a utopian community that prided itself on its welcome to newcomers, Village will soon be closed to all outsiders. As one of the only people able to safely travel through the dangerous Forest, Matty must deliver the message of Village's closing and try to convince Seer's daughter, Kira, to return with him before it's too late. But Forest has grown hostile to Matty too, and he must risk everything to fight his way through it, armed only with an emerging power he cannot yet explain or understand.©2004 Lois Lowry (P)2004 Random House, Inc., Listening Library, an imprint of the Random House Audio Publishing Group Ciencia Ficción Ciencia Ficción y Fantasía Distópico Fantasía Fantasía y Magia Ficción Sincero Pueblo

Featured Article: Excellent Dystopian Listens Like The Hunger Games


The popularity of Suzanne Collins’s The Hunger Games trilogy and its film adaptations has paved the way for so many great dystopian books and series in YA, imagining harrowing worlds where teens must fight for survival and define what life means to them. The enduring popularity of the series has proven that dystopian stories and the sometimes-dark futures they imagine are endlessly fascinating to our imaginations.

If you listened or read the first book of "the giver" then you will enjoy this book also. I really hope that a 4th book will be written. All three have left me wanting to read more. I would recommend this to anyone.

Excellent! again Excellent

I think I read this story out of sequence and had problems figuring out what was happening until I re-read the Giver and Gathering Blue. Lowry does write interesting, well-thought-out, characters and environments and this is no exception. My original reason for getting it, and why I wound up with it out of sequence was that I saw it was read by David Morse. I've liked his acting, and especially his voice, since the days of the medical show he was on when he first began TV work. I can't remember the show, but I remember him.

I'd listen to David Morse read the phone book!

It is a very good book. The narrator caught me off guard and, at first, I didn't like him. Eventually you get used to it though and his voice is quite fitting to the story.

worth it

I read the first book in middle school, the second independently in high school. When I went to go and reflect upon the books again, I found this book. It was short and to the point, though I would have loved to learn more about Matty. He was a character you could fall in love with from the previous book in the series and see how he evolved as a person over this short novel. I felt as though it expanded the world I knew of from the first two books. Absolutely amazing and it brought me to tears at the very end. I don't find it often that books bring me to tears, but because of how well it was written it did.

One of the best discoveries

I like how the three books are located in different towns but connected. Looking forward to Son.

Third book in series.

I loved it, and am moving on to the 4th book. Narrator was good too.

Great book

As always the writing style of Lowry is consistently engaging but it seems to me, at first read, the that the ending was plucked from air and not consistent with any foreshadowing or dialogue. Perhaps I need to listen again with the end in mind to see how this type of ending is logically possible within the “Gathering Blue world” that Lowry has created. I enjoyed it all the way up to the seemingly implausible conclusion.

Curious ending. (No spoiler)

This was a nice surprise as I didn't know there were follow up stories to The Giver. Very lovely.

Narration was great. Story was great

A nice follow up to the first 2, connecting both plots. The story isn’t the strongest but is enjoyable, written well and symbolizes many humanitarian lessons society today needs reminders of.

Symbolic Journey

Lowry does it again in the 3rd book of the Giver Series. Another well told, edge of your seat, emotion evoking story about insurmountable odds in a place where the natural order of things is not like (and not totally unlike) our own. Characters from both The Giver and Gathering Blue are present and more details from both earlier books are filled in (a bit, don't expect all the answers).

Brings THE GIVER & GATHERING BLUE together nicely
